I don’t know much about these Gropers or whatever but if all the attention on this angle pushes them to a MAGA gang war, I’ll need to pick up some more popcorn. It’s guiltless because, as we all know, gang violence doesn’t count.
Whatever it takes to make my dream of a “MAGA gang war” news broadcast supercut happen. I want to hear it in different voices out of different faces until the words lose all meaning like the “This is extremely dangerous to our democracy” thing from about a century ago in 2018.
What it takes is being a billionaire with monopolistic control of the media.
At least that’s how ‘the “This is extremely dangerous to our democracy” thing’ happened, anyway: it was ordered by a single entity who had the power to dictate what all those “separate” news stations must say.
Just don’t get microwave popcorn because the bags tend to be coated with PFAs which get into the butter, then your bloodstream. Always make popcorn the old fashioned way, or buy pre-puffed.
Oh no, trans fats. The biggest issue is manufacturing safety standards, nobody in the 21st century should be exposed to potentially harmful compounds on an industrial scale.
Also the oil that they use is artificial butter flavored and it causes brain cancer. Like you probably will not get it from eating it but the people that work in the food processing of it will get brain cancer if they breathe in or whatever too much of it. So small amounts might not be great for you either. The Pfas is a bigger concern though.
I do know about microwavable, but you can buy a little pan and do stove top and use the real butter or whatever oil you choose, coconut oil would be good.
There are other contraptions, I am trying to remember how they work.
Once you had that contraption, you could pop any grain really, barley, wheat, Rye, a mix. Matter of fact I think I’m going to get a stove top popper and start to do that.
Most grains won’t pop. They need a pretty specific water content and shell strength to build the internal pressure just right. Sorghum and amaranth are the two non-corn poppers I know of. Many grains will “puff” but you need extra pressure to make them look like breakfast cereal.
Huh, I do not know the ins and outs but I am pretty sure I have seen popped wheat before at a minimum but yeah maybe it has to be done a certain way with a certain prepared grain.
There’s an old science fiction short story where the aliens come to eat us and an old farmer volunteers to be the sacrificial victim, and the aliens all die because of the built-up insecticides in his system.
I know you’re joking, but the butter in microwave popcorn bags tends to have a much bigger dosage than water does. This is due to getting heated up, and the butter being the right kind of fat to absorb pfas from the bag.
It’s a perfect storm for delivering PFAs into you… Which makes sense because PFAs weren’t really known about when microwave popcorn was invented.

They’re already waging a MAGA gang war. Charlie Kirk is a casualty
Haha I hope they all kill each other off

Sinclair Broadcast Group is the entity, in case anyone needed another corp to hate today

The bags are ironically probably the least toxic in these bags. The “butter” should be illegal.

Are there any good versions of microwave popcorn?
I’ve got one of these and it’s super easy and convenient. https://wandp.com/products/the-popper-microwave-popcorn-popper
Just drop in some loose kernels and microwave.
I also cook on the stove top with a large pan, it’s not hard at all.

There’s a couple others that are new to me but the ratio is still mostly no-pop
The poison only makes me stronger.

Eh, my water is already filled with PFAs anyways. What’s a little more cancer on the pile.

Microwave popcorn was one of my safest autistic meals growing up… I’m so boned
Yeah, but make sure you show the proper amounts of politically correct mourning and contrition in between your bites of popcorn, I guess.
It’s apparently now a criminal offense not to support Nazis in this country.
