popper
Snack-making appliance
A popper is something that pops.
Popcorn poppers heat kernels until they burst.
Party poppers release confetti with a bang.
In fishing, a popper is a lure that makes a popping sound on the water's surface.
Poppers are also small capsules of amyl nitrite or similar inhalants, crushed and sniffed for a brief euphoric rush—popular in club and sexual contexts for intensifying sensation.
