Popcorn
We like popcorn, and a couple years ago I finally broke through the taste vs. laziness barrier and started eating microwave popcorn. It wasn’t quite as good, but it was really easy. I always found it to be a little “tough” though, compared to “fresh” popcorn. Also, since popcorn can be difficult to digest, it’s one of the first foods that patients with active Crohn’s disease are told to avoid.
Well, about a year and a half ago while reading the Crohn’s message board I found the answer: B.K. Heuermann’s microwave popcorn. Their popcorn has been selectively bred for the past 10 years to have virtually no hull — the hard covering of the kernel — making the popcorn softer and fluffier and more enjoyable to eat. It also tastes really good.
They have several flavors (Kathie’s favorite is the kettle corn, and mine is the movie theater style) available for mail order, so if you like popcorn, give it a try!

I would also like the information on where to get this popcorn.
It is without a doubt, the best microwave popcorn out there.
Thanks for your help,

Does anyone know yet if the (in my opinion) only popcorn worth eating is available anywhere? QVC doesn’t have it and Amazon pictures it but state they don’t know if or when it will be back. It really was the absolute best manufactured.
