Movie theatres really are death traps now.

It seems like everything can give you cancer these days.

I mean seriously, the only sure fire, 100% way not to get cancer is to never touch, drink, eat or breathe anything, and stay indoors in an unlit room.

You'll be happy to know that you can still poop....but since you're not eating....

I dunno... pooping could give you colon polyps, which can turn to cancer.

Just buy popcorn without the butter, and use a spray bottle of butter on it if you must have it on there.
Did anyone actually read the article?

Precisely what I was gonna say. Next month they'll be saying that popcorn fumes are beneficial for your heart.

+eleventy-million

It's the synthetic butter flavoring people. And it's not in the eating, but in the breathing of the fumes generated when cooking that can cause lung disease. THEY NEVER MENTION CANCER.

So, buy the ones marked "natural butter" (check the FDA label), and quit whining about the findings.

Living in your own poop will give you cancer...

Oh noes.
I've had quite a few packets of that Microwaveable popcorn as well. Whilst watching T2 last night, I even burned it...and it smelt the whole house out.

I'mma gonna die

Don't use MICROWAVE popcorn. Air popped is fine and REAL butter not the artificial kind. Then you'll be fine.
