    I worked in an office were a senior partner hated the smell so much it was against policy to pop popcorn and then there is this - maybe she will succumb:

    Diacetyl (popcorn workers lung)

    In rare instances, bronchiolitis obliterans may be caused by inhalation of airborne diacetyl, a chemical used to produce the artificial butter flavoring[8] in many foods such as candy and microwave popcorn and occurring naturally in wines. This first came to public attention when eight former employees of the Gilster-Mary Lee popcorn plant in Jasper, Missouri, developed bronchiolitis obliterans. In 2000, the Missouri Department of Health called in NIOSH to make a determination of the cause, and to recommend safety measures. After surveying the plant and each patient's medical history, NIOSH recommended respiratory protection for all workers in microwave popcorn production. Due to this event, bronchiolitis obliterans began to be referred to in the popular media as "Popcorn Lung" or "Popcorn Workers Lung".[4][8][9]

    In 2007 a heavy consumer of microwaved popcorn was diagnosed by a doctor in Denver with "popcorn lung," the first known case involving a consumer.[13] On 16 January 2008, it was announced that Wayne Watson, the Denver consumer who developed "popcorn lung" after inhaling fumes from microwaved popcorn, was suing the Kroger grocery store chain and its affiliates. In the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court, Watson's attorney claimed that the companies "failed to warn that preparing microwave popcorn in a microwave oven as intended and smelling the buttery aroma could expose the consumer to an inhalation hazard and a risk of lung injury."[16] On September 19, 2012 a jury in U.S. District Court in Denver awarded $2.3 million in actual damages and $5 million in punitive damages to Wayne Watson of Centennial, Colorado who habitually consumed microwave popcorn for a decade. Defendants included Glister-Mary Lee, the manufacturer; Kroger, and Kroger's subsidiary Dillons, owners of King Soopers & City Market, a Colorado regional supermarket chain.[9][10][11]
    On 27 August 2007, Weaver Popcorn Company of Indianapolis promised to replace the diacetyl butter flavor ingredient in Pop Weaver popcorn with another flavoring.[14]

    In September 2007, Dr. Cecile Rose, pulmonary specialist at Denver's National Jewish Medical and Research Center, warned federal agencies that consumers, not just flavoring or food factory workers, may be in danger of contracting bronchiolitis obliterans. David Michaels, of the George Washington University School of Public Health, first published Rose's warning letter on his blog.[10][11][12]

    On 4 September 2007, the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers recommended reduction of diacetyl in butter-like flavorings. The next day ConAgra Foods announced that it would soon remove diacetyl from its popcorn products.[15]

    Diacetyl is approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a safe flavor ingredient, but there is evidence to suggest that inhalation in large amounts is dangerous. There are currently no warnings from federal regulators about diacetyl.

    British accents, they sound whiny. Just be quiet until you get home.
    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

    Now that is funny because, you see, in the British vernacular "quite" means: agreeing with a given statement, often expressing reluctant agreement or disbelief

    Funy enough, I almost did. They came down the food court and started asking if anyone was on my flight. Due to headwinds we needed to leave early. I was planning on sucking down a drink and eating but had to run to the plane. They asked 10 minutes before we were supposed to board and told me almost everyone was on the plane already. Now I'm in the air drinking a Dewars and all is right with the world, minus being in the middle seat!

    And to stay with the subject of this thread... middle seats.

    Is it because I live a thousand miles from the closest avocado tree that just about every avocado I get in the markets is bruised to shit?

    it's probably like several other fruits. they spray them with shit to slow down the ripening process during shipping. over the last several years i've noticed that the quality of vegetables and fruit coming from other places is getting worse. it's unripe when you buy it and it ripens in a day and a half.

    fortunately, that's not the worst shit they spray on things like bananas.

    Kudos to a man that can say it and is still here. That does NOT annoy me.
