Hi Jbl,
It's arguably not the best thing because of the husks within the popcorn which when expelled from the body, can be a little rough with a potential to "scrape" the fissure area. On saying that, I also love pop corn but I find myself munching with caution and picking out those husky bits a lot these days!! I do eat small handfuls now and again but these are rarer occasions now. Ah...gone are the days of sitting through a film with a huge box of sugared popcorn!! :)
