Microwave popcorn is a low calorie snack that can be made in minutes, doesn’t require silverware, and combines with another favorite lazy activity - TV.

Though you might want to think twice before eating the stuff as the time saved may not be worth some of the dangers.

It appears that workers making the stuff are coming down with bronchiolitis obliterans, a disease that causes the smaller bronchi to be filled up with masses of fibrous tissue.

Is this enough for you to cut back or completely stop eating microwave popcorn in favor for the on-the-stove stuff? Let us know in the comments!
