    >>CHANCES are pretty darned good that you've gobbled up at least a handful of popcorn sometime in the past few weeks. It is, after all, the world's No. 1 selling snack food.
    Pleasanton entrepreneur Kristine Shimmin is banking on the popularity of popcorn as the basis of her fledgling company, FeedBag Kettle Korn.

    "I ate a huge bag of kettle korn one night," Shimmin said of her company's offbeat name. "Not wanting to miss out on the last few crumbs, I rolled up the bag and stuck my face into the bottom, just like a horse with a feedbag." <<

    >>"I had tried some kettle korn, and it tasted great," she said. "It's the combination of the sweet and the salt that makes it so good. Plus, the freshness of the popcorn. It's addictive." <<

    GO FRESH, GO POPCORN!!!
