Popcorn And Tortilla Chips

[Scooby_Who 5]

My materials from my doctor say that popcorn and chips are things that have a high risk of getting stuck and are foods that should be avoided forever. Well then I was reading an old thread on here where people were talking about popcorn and chips (including chips and salsa) being slider foods. I'm curious - what are these foods like for you?

I can eat either one but make sure I chew chew chew. I make sure not to overdue it, it is more for a crunch..or if having black Beans I might toss in a few chips.. I think there are some on the forum that have difficulty with some foods. But they are nothing I want to reach for on a regular basis.

popcorn is a slider food for me. Tortilla chips and pretzels cause me to get stuck. I haven't tried potato chips. Living with the band is a lot of trial and error. Everyone is different regarding the foods that they can tolerate. You can even have changes from day to day.

popcorn and chips are both slider foods for me. I stay clear of them not because they get stuck, but because it would be way too easy to eat way too much of them.

im not a big popcorn fan, but i occasionly have a handful or 2 with no problems. chips are a different story. Tortilla chips expand on me , making me very uncomfortable, so i chew a couple of tiny bites very very well . Regular thick potatoes chips like "Tims Cascade Chips" do the same thing , but Lays Sour cream and onion dont bother me at all. (They're thin, so that can make a difference) Anyway, im not a big salt fan, so i rarely have any kind of chips.

I've hear some doctors feel like pieces of popcorn (like the hulls) can get caught in the curve of the pouch. My doc never said anything. I don't keep any crunch Snacks in my house but there is a local restaurant that gives bowls of realllly salty popcorn as a pre app. I have it when I'm there as a treat. No problems with chips of any kind; a slider for me.

In my booklet my dr gave me of menu ideas chips and salsa is listed as a lunch once past mushy food stage? Crazy, huh?

popcorn slides tortilla chips stack up. But I do find the more fills I get the less popcorn I can eat.
