Poll of the Day > Popcorn is a pretty dumb food

(+) Yeah! (+)

It's basically just air, it doesn't satisfy your hunger at all. It's annoying when it gets stuck in your teeth. It doesn't even taste very good unless you coat it in stuff that gets your hands messy, but there are so many superior vessels for snack-flavoring, like crackers or chips or pretzels

Popcorn is bullshit

You clearly haven't eaten much of it. When I was in college, I'd sometimes save money by having a bag of popcorn for a meal and it certainly did the job.

If you make popcorn in a kettle yourself it's great. Microwave popcorn is garb.

Tortillas though

I started having really bad tooth pain. I'd brushed and flossed and gargled over and over but it wasn't helping. I thought maybe I'd cracked the molar and I even started calling around to various places to find out how much it would cost to get a crown (It's insanely expensive).

Then while I was at work I felt something kind of weird on the back of the tooth. I started picking at it with my tongue, then with my fingernail and suddenly this huge chunk of popcorn kernel came loose from underneath the gum.

It had been at least a month since I'd eaten popcorn, and I'd brushed dozens of times since then.

Popcorn is the greatest!

I had something like that happen to me, popcorn sucks.

That always sucks. Every once in awhile I'll get a piece of the kernel skin stuck up in my gums. I can usually get it out though. There was one time I had it stuck up there for a few weeks. I knew it was there and it had the gums around that tooth swollen and tender the whole time. But I couldn't reach it. Not even with a pair of needle tweezers that I have. Had to just leave it alone and wait for it to work it's own way out because digging at it was just making things worse. It was hard not to keep digging for it though, knowing the whole time it was still there.
