Great science writing II: Popcorn

Here is the first of my promised posts on scientific writing.

First line: "Popcorn is the funniest corn to cook, because it jumps and makes a 'pop' sound in our pans."

Virot, Emannuel and Alexandre Ponomarenko (2015). Popcorn: Critical Temperature, Jump, and Sound. Journal of the Royal Society: Interface 12:20141247. http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2014.1247

Enjoy!
