Yes, I know that feeling well. I made the mistake of eating some

popcorn my wife got for christmas. The kind they put in a nice big

round decorative tin, with three different flavors. Years ago I would

eat the stuff and never wondered why I couldn't stop til I was really

full. This year I thought I'd have a little for old times sake,

figured a little bad stuff wouldn't kill me. So I went for the

" cheddar " flavor, but definitely got that gimme-another-handful

sensation, again, and again, and again til I was stuffed. Just like

the old days. So I had to look at the ingredients, and sure enough

*MSG*, along with a big load of wonderful trans fats to boot! Shoulda

known. Oh well, I survived. We live and we learn ... sometimes
