Throughout history, scientists have been unable to successfully prove that corn exists, their thermal experiments resulting only in inexplicable white snack puffs. Feast on scientific failure with today’s Groupon: for $6, you get $12 worth of gourmet popcorn from The Popcorn Station on Taylorsville Road. This Groupon is only valid in-store.

The Popcorn Station, a retail and wholesale gourmet-popcorn company, uses only the finest, freshest ingredients to guarantee the fluffiest and tastiest corn explosions. Thirty different seasoned, sweet, nutty, and chocolaty flavors are certain to please even the choosiest of popped-seed chompers, with choices such as bluegrass best butter, crunchy chewy caramel, and cheesy cheddar. Secure the rights to a three-flavor sampler with eight servings ($10; add $0.50 per nutty flavor, add $1 per chocolate flavor) and carefully observe as the skilled attendant hand-scoops it while simultaneously juggling sickles. Snag a two-serving grab bag ($3) of train tracks, a concoction of peanut-butter- and dark-chocolate-drizzled kettlecorn, then appease 11 of your angriest relatives with a medium-sized bag of nutty Kentucky honey ($7) crafted with bee nectar and pecans.

The Popcorn Station also sells their snack goods in tins decorated for holidays, birthdays, and other exciting events. Clients with allergies should note that products may contain milk, soybeans, or nuts. With four helpings of popcorn clenched in your hands and feet and one more stuffed in your mouth, turn an otherwise uneventful day into a bizarre, caramel- and cheese-coated adventure.

• Everyone should visit. Their popcorn is amazing. My first grade guided reading group got to taste some flavors when we were reading about the five senses and they LOVED it. – Britney Linde Orme, Facebook
