Bwa-huh?
Rose said the ailing patient, a man whom she wouldn't identify, consumed "several bags of extra butter flavored microwave popcorn" every day for several years.
Also from the article:
He described progressively worsening respiratory symptoms of coughing and shortness of breath. Tests found his ability to exhale was deteriorating, Rose said, although his condition seemed to stabilize after he quit using microwave popcorn.
Now, I don't know if the "fumes" from the microwave popcorn had anything to do with the man's lung problems, but the fact that he was eating several bags of the shit a day, for years.... you know, that's an addiction. Eating that much of anything is going to lead to some problems. Doesn't matter if it's good for you, or not. (I would place microwave popcorn in the category of "not good for you", especially if you eat several bags of it a day.)
