Read the paragraph. Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavor, but that is not true. Popcorn, which was first enjoyed by

the people of Peru over five thousand years ago, is not only healthy but also quite delicious. The high rate of popcorn consumption among Americans supports this claim. Because popcorn is relatively high in nutritional value, is fairly inexpensive, and lends itself to a variety of cooking methods, it is one of the most popular American snack foods. What is the hook in this paragraph? The high rate of popcorn consumption among Americans supports this claim. Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavor, but that is not true.

Answer: Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavour, but that is not true.

The hook is the first one or two sentences of an essay. It works as its introduction. The main purpose of a hook is to grab the reader's attention so that they continue reading the text.

In this case, the hook is telling us that an assumption we might have is actually wrong. This is meant to increase our curiosity about what the rest of the essay is going to discuss.
