    I'm doomed..... I sit next to a guy that burns 4 bags of it a day. Not to mention the microwave he pops it in is only 15 feet away.
    😱

    Well, the whole, "Gonna die from heavy popcorn exposure at work" thing was funny for a few days, anyway.

    What surprises me, and probably shouldn't, is that there is a Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association. I bet they are out of control at conferences.

    When this was first posted and I responded I was thinking if this was real. Maybe a promotion for Pop Weaver or just an internet hoax in the end.

    So is this new article actually another story or a regurgitation of the old one?

    I think that until we know for sure, why take the chance?

    I am just going to see if I can buy some without butter flavor and add my own real melted butter.

    My Ex just bought a box of the smaller Act II pop corns not too long ago. I am going to make her take them back now.

    It cannot hurt to be careful until this works itself out a bit. It could still be total BS but until we know for sure...

    This has been floating around for years.

    Here's an article from the Journal of the American Medical Association, from 2002.
