Microwave Popcorn
A senior scientist, Olga Naidenko, PHD for the Environmental Working Group claims a problem with a chemical, including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA ), in the lining of the bag are part of a class of compounds that may be linked to infertility in humans, according to a recent study from UCLA. In animal testing, the chemicals cause liver, testicular, and pancreatic cancer. The chemicals are vaporized during microwaving and immigrate into the popcorn. Studies claim that these chemicals stay in your system for years and accumulate. DuPont and other manufactures have promised to phase out PFOA by 2015 under voluntary EPA plan.
Popping natural kernels the old-fashioned way, with real butter, dried seasonings is best. Try mixing popcorn with soup mix.
