There is some graham cracker-like pieces with what looks like a piece of popcorn on top.  How do I get rid of these things?  Nothing seems to work. Do I have to buy something? I don't wish to buy stuff to play the game.

Popcorn it is. You must swell the popcorn until it bursts whereupon it will give you a colour bomb. You do so by firing striped candies or striped candy combos through it, exploding a wrapped candy that is in any of the eight squares which surround it, exploding a 2 x wrapped combo in range of it, setting off a 2 x colourbomb combo, or hitting it with a lollipop. It takes 4 hits of this kind to complete the popping. Please also note that popcorn absorbs the blast from striped candy and will therefore act as a shield to anything behind it on the same line.
