Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Hi Azin well i have a thing about popcorn, i did have it before surgery, and it was wintertime and warm and cozy, i thought i would never be able to have it again. Since surgery I have had some popcorn, it doesnt seem to affect me and i dont eat alot of it but at the movies i have had some, i am careful with it and i dont eat anything not popped. I guess everyones situation is different. colleen"Azeeeeeeeeeeen! (the excitement is optional)" wrote: Hi Everyone,Is popcorn bad? Not the microwave type but air popped with a tiny bit of oil (just to coat the bottom of the pot). I haven't had surgery yet so I think its okay to have (i know its one of those things you give up after surgery) Any thoughts?Azin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Popcorn is fine in moderation. Be careful, as overconsumption can cause a bowel obstruction in us in rare cases. pascha > Hi Everyone, > > Is popcorn bad?
