Popcorn Withdrawls!
Body | August 30th, 2008
For me watching a video and eating popcorn for dinner is a perfect way to end a week. Looove this! And I am almost always guaranteed to I wake up with a mild to brutal headache. I know popcorn is bad for me but til now the pleasure overrode the pain. Til now!
I have gone cold turkey, No more buttery popcorn!
I am now in the search for an equally sumptuous savory treat, please send suggestions my way.

Almonds! Or, depending on your love of salt, cashews!

I get a headache from popcorn-for-dinner, too. Maybe you can make a little platter of yummy treats that cover more than one food group – almonds, salted edemame, cheese and crackers, hummus & pita, hardboiled egg…. you get the idea.

No advice, I’m afraid, but I just wanted to mention that my 4-year-old had popcorn on Thursday and then completely lost the plot… for about three hours. So we’re going cold turkey on popcorn too.

Hmmmm…no corn for you? The things that popped into mind were things you can buy at our health food store like Snap Pea Crisps:

Havea Chips (the BEST corn chips IMO):
