finediva 979 Posted February 20, 2015 I make popcorn at home, on the stove with olive oil and no added salt. Yum! I was told to refraim from it in the very beginning. I don't overindulge, but I do enjoy it ever so often. It's a slider for me, so I am mindful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gibble 28 Posted February 20, 2015 I love pop corn, but its one of those things I don't tolerate well, I still eat a little bit, but I have to eat it very slowly It is on the Dr's list of foods that may not be tolerated well, but I had to try it. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimpossible67 608 Posted February 20, 2015 I make it on the stove with oil too. Somehow I tolerate it fine. I bought a bag made just with salt. Not greasy and oh boy, not good. My guts are still rolling. Ugh. Back to popping my own! I make popcorn at home, on the stove with olive oil and no added salt. Yum! I was told to refraim from it in the very beginning. I don't overindulge, but I do enjoy it ever so often. It's a slider for me, so I am mindful. I've never tried it with olive oil...hmmm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimpossible67 608 Posted February 20, 2015 popcorn is on my Dr's can never have again list unfortunately...sigh. Hope you feel better! That stinks! I hate microwave popcorn with a passion. I buy the white kernels and PPP it at home. I goofed and bought a bag of already popped and it did not agree with me. Do you know the reason you can't have it?

ProjectMe 909 Posted February 20, 2015 That stinks! I hate microwave popcorn with a passion. I buy the white kernels and PPP it at home. I goofed and bought a bag of already popped and it did not agree with me. Do you know the reason you can't have it? According to my handout: 1. Kernels/shells can cause problems 2. Has empty calories 3. Are a slider food for many 4. Patients reported having problems digesting it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSGmary 418 Posted February 20, 2015 unfortunately corn (in any form) is one of those ingredients that my body does not agree with .. i was quite sad initially but id rather sulk about it than have to go through the pain it gives me.. i just avoid corn like the plague.
