Popcorn Lung !

[90Xjay]

have you all heard about this one?

There is a chemical that is used to produce the butter flavor in microwave popcorn. In the factory where workers pack this stuff, some of the workers are being diagnosed with a rare and very harmful lung condition as a result of breathing this in the factory. It causes permanent swelling of lung tissue and can be deadly. Crap, I wonder if that first big whiff you take after you open the bag is bad for you too?:shock: :shock:

I wouldn't think it's that dangerous for people that aren't exposed to it 8 hours a day. Although, if you're eating that much microwave popcorn at home you really have a few other issues you might want to work out.:shock:
