I recently gave up popcorn myself. Had no idea that it was at least part of the problem with my fissure (which was operated on last summer) and irritation. Have also noticed that too much coffee makes for very sticky BMs which, in turn, make cleanup difficult and results in further irritation. So I've recently dramatically up'd my fiber and water intake to try and achieve an ideal firmness to the BM that doesn't require much, if any, cleanup.
