Popcorn and corn in general are "eat in moderation" foods. Our gut doesn't process them well and they can trigger diverticulosis/itis as you get older, which sucks.

Good to know. Is nixtamalized corn better?

I hate the vast majority of mustard UNLESS it’s honey or maple mustard.

I only recently tried the maple mustard. As much as I love maple syrup, I can't say as I'm a fan, but honey mustard is the best thing in the world for pretzel dipping!

I'm not sure. My doc just said "corn is fine in moderation. Don't over do it."

Corn, in general, is a terrible food choice for diabetics. Very high in sugar. Which is why I love it so, hot and fresh on the cob, slathered in butter, dripping off my chin and down my elbows like a hog in slop! Loved. Not love. Past tense.

Except rarely. Maybe once or twice. In June.
