The Kettle Black, Entry

[The Kettle Black, Entry - 8084088]
Dried ears of corn, their surfaces split and faded, are scattered all over the floor of this partially capsized stall. A cracked display stand seems to have escaped the destruction of the rest of the space, while a slatted wooden crate painted with a stylized ear of corn sits askew in one corner. A crooked curtain hangs partially from the ceiling and seems to hide a potential storage space. The air is musty and smells of stale popcorn. You also see a slate chalkboard sign.

In the Common language, it reads:
P O P C O R N

These precision kettles let you take simple ears of corn and turn them into delicious popcorn.
Enjoy it plain or add butter, sugar, caramel, or cheese to change how it tastes.
That's not all - you can even add other food, foraged items, tea/brewing ingredients, and cooking ingredients to infuse up to 2 extra flavors to the kernels.
Optionally top it with melted butter and/or salt, as well!
The kettles require fire magic or golden wands to work.
The note in the crate will let you add some special effects to the created popcorn such as "Spicy" or "Stale".
The paper in the crate will let you adjust the cooking time on your kettle so that you can undercook or overcook your popcorn, for those who may want slightly singed kernels.
The scroll in the crate will allow the descriptions of the created popcorn to be longer.
The slip in the crate will add one (1) custom container slot to your kettle; each custom container slot has a "bag" side and a "bucket" side.  You can have up to ten (10) Custom Container slots on a kettle, so you can use up to that many slips.  The added slot will be empty, but any merchant can adjust it for you.
The parchment in the crate will let you optionally turn any popcorn created by the kettle into a bundle of popcorn kernels that can be used in Weaving.

In the wooden crate you see: a square Custom Container slip, a long cornflower blue scroll, a singed paper, a bright red note, and a faded Weaveable Item parchment.

The Kettle Black, Storage

[The Kettle Black, Storage - 8084089]
Multiple burlap bags, some of them displaying the tops of dried ears of corn, line the walls of this tiny storage space. While the area is still cramped, it seems to have escaped much of the destruction of the rest of the stall. A scarred work table, its surface covered in random assortments of tools, sits in one corner, while a rickety stool has been pushed in front of it.
