ABSTRACT:
An oven using one or more quartz halogen tungsten lamps or quartz arc bulbs capable of producing radiant energy of which a significant portion is in the visible light range of the electromagnetic spectrum to pop popcorn whereby visible and near visible radiation directly impinges onto corn kernels. Radiation sources can be positioned around the corn kernels and the inner walls of the oven are preferably highly reflective to reflect light energy onto the kernels. The kernels travel down a tube shaped cooking chamber by a forced air stream. When the corn pops, the highly reflective and very light popped corn is removed via the air stream which stops the cooking process.
