Re: movie popcorn -- safe?

[Guest guest]

My celiac daughters and I eat movie theater popcorn frequently and have never

had an issue. I used to be diligent about checking ingredients but have never

found any gluten in popcorn.

If anyone has had a different experience, I'd appreciate knowing.

Hi there,

Has anyone eaten safe movie popcorn at theaters in the East Bay or SF? I'm

interested in hearing about the big theater chains, and the art house theaters.

thanks!

When I ate movie popcorn, I would get sick four out of five times. I

finally gave up. I think it's as likely that it was a cross

contamination problem (the food service people also handle hot dogs)

as something in the butter flavouring.

However, this was at least 5 years ago (I can no longer eat corn), so

maybe the ingredients are different now.

I always eat the movie popcorn; I don't get the added butter because I just don't like added butter, but there is nothing in movie popcorn itself that should make a celiac sick. I can't speak to any cross contamination issues, though I've never seen anyone touch the popcorn with their (glutened) hands...

My mother and sister get sick from the soy-based "butter oil." Nausea and vomiting.
