These chemicals are added to the microwave popcorn to give it that, "movie theater-like" smell that most people appear to need or want. Taking a deep "wiff" in the bag after it pops allows those chemicals to penetrate into your lungs, causing scarring of the air sacs.
The popcorn also contains only trans fats, which are known to affect the cardiovascular system...they clog the arteries and veins.
You can easily avoid all of this by doing the following:
Purchase organic, non-GMO popcorn in either a box or jar. Add one-third to one-half a cup of the popcorn to a brown paper bag. That's it. Pop it for one and a-half to two minutes (when the corn stops popping) and then add some avocado, sunflower, grape seed or any other organic oil and a tiny bit of salt, if required. If you must, add a small amount of melted butter, but then you'll be eating trans fats instead of the cis-fats from the oil. You can also re-pop any of the corn that didn't pop the first time. I think you'll really enjoy it.
