    I wonder if the dealership accross the road from my office has any :corn: you would think that they should, since that would fit along with their other brilliant marketing schemes - currently the black and white balloons tied to the cars and yellow crime scene tape stretched accross the light-posts

    My wife used to make popcorn (really good popcorn) all the time, almost every night for a while, then she stopped. Stupid pregnancy.

    The health benefits of coconut oil include hair care, skin care, stress relief, maintaining cholesterol levels, weight loss, increased immunity, proper digestion and metabolism, relief from kidney problems, heart diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, HIV and cancer, dental care, and bone strength. These benefits of oil can be attributed to the presence of lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid, and its properties such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial and soothing properties.

    wow...and all that is 'horrible'?

    Lot of fat in coconut oil. Couple that with the salt and butter that's in the ready made packets of the product to make the popcorn in and it's not good. Especially when you are contained in a showroom for twelve hours at a time just eating popcorn without really excercising...yeah it was pretty horrible for everyone.

    In huge quantities yes all fat is bad for you. This was not pure coconut oil either that you would find in some health store. It was mixed with butter and salt. We sat around eating it and not excercising. Evryone would put on weight when we served it.

    I'm pretty neutral on popcorn. Shit gets all stuck in your teeth and shit.

    I'm not sure what the fuss is all about. :corn:

    Agreed. I've never thought after eating popcorn "damn I'm glad I ate that". Nope. Chips and salsa are WAY superior!

    the smell of freshly popped popcorn is one of the world greatest smells.

    that smell becons you to enjoy a little treat.

    it tells you that you are out doing something. maybe it's a little league ball game and you are watching your kid play...maybe you are on a date at the movies....maybe you are at a football game....maybe it's a major league game (although not a wrigley :fp:, worst popcorn in the majors)

    if you don't like popcorn, you are unamerican.

    Diacetyl Involved In Causing Alzheimer’s Disease


    EmailAccording to a study published in the journal Chemical Research in Toxicology, a common diet ingredient, diacetyl, is involved in causing Alzheimer’s disease. This ingredient is found in a wide range of products such as popcorn, baked foods, candy, and it is used to give flavor to these foods. In fact, diacetyl found in these foods is not itself, but chronic exposure to this ingredient in the food industry. According to the study, exposure to diacetyl in the long run leads to neuronal toxicity.



    Diacetyl, or 2,3-butanedione, is a natural result of fermentation and is found in alcoholic beverages. It can be used as a food additive in certain foods to enhance flavor. So far it was discussed the possible role of diacetyl in respiratory infections. It was noted that workers with chronic exposure to diacetyl have developed bronchiolitis obliterans. Interestingly, the respiratory disease occurred in healthy young men.

    Now, a group of researchers led by Robert Vince and colleagues Swati More and Ashish Vartak, noted that diacetyl is involved in causing Alzheimer’s disease. It appears that diacetyl favors aggregation of beta amyloid plaques in the brain. Beta amyloid is a marker protein of Alzheimer’s disease. Furthermore, researchers found that diacetyl increases toxicity of beta amyloid on neurons. Moreover, according to research, diacetyl is resistant to a protein (glyoxalase I) that is involved in detoxification of harmful products and prevent beta amyloid clumping. Researchers said that: “In light of the chronic exposure of industry workers to DA, this study raises the troubling possibility of long-term neurological toxicity mediated by DA” .

    Alzheimer disease is the most common form of dementia in the elderly persons. There are two forms of Alzheimer’s disease: a form of early onset, more rare and which occurs in families, and late-onset form, the most common and which occurs sporadically. Alzheimer’s disease occurs primarily through forgetfulness. Once that occurs, the disease progresses and cognitive function can not be recovered. Other events that may appear are irritability, confusion, impaired perception, speech problems, etc.. There are several assumptions underlying Alzheimer’s disease: cholinergic hypothesis, which holds that Alzheimer’s is caused by a decreased synthesis of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter. Amyloid hypothesis holds that Alzheimer’s disease is caused by deposits of beta amyloid. Finally, tau protein hypothesis supports the idea that Alzheimer disease is caused by neurofibrillary tangles ( that develop inside neurons). Also, there are studies sustaining that some metals such as aluminum are involved in the Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis.

    Movie popcorn: Just salt, no butter thanks.

    Kettle corn: The. Best. Ever.

    BUT: One must carry dental floss if one is out and has popcorn, then retire to a bathroom stall to remove the remnants.

    Or, at least fold up a piece of paper and do the best you can.

    NOT at the table. 81, I'm looking at you.
