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.

I hate regular corn lol

Have you heard of puff corn? I learned about it in the program cause someone mentioned it. I want to try it. It is popcorn but without the kernels or husks. But from Googling, I can only find like two brands and like one or two places to buy it LOL I think Target is one. But I know there must be more brands or places to buy. But anyways, I really want to try it. I HATE kernels and husks. Always gets stuck in your teeth LOL plus the surgery risk AZ mentioned plus it might be good if you have minimal or no teeth because there’s no hard kernels. So yeah.

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.

I have a BIG bowl of popcorn for dinner at least once a week, sometimes twice. Yellow popcorn, hot air popped, NOTHING on it. I am a popcorn purist. I like popped corn.

Oh, man... I don't want to give up my popcorn dinners...

It’s why I go to theaters to watch movies.
Big screens? No. Big popcorn, hell yeah!
