Super cool! I wish they would explain how they realized it was popcorn specifically though. Not that I doubt their conclusion, I am just curious. To me, that picture looks like, well, weed, but also like normal corn-on-the-cob. Is popcorn-on-the-cob a thing?

I can't speak to any science but I have had popcorn on the cob. It's fine but there's a reason it's not as popular.
