Popcorn At The Movie Theatre

[Yenni]

I am guessing the Popcorn one can buy at the movie theatres are bad? Probably has "natural flavorings" on them or something.

I just wanted to know if anyone knew for sure.

I seem to have become sick after I ate them.

Cinemark said their popcorn is Gluten Free....but I still do not eat it. It could be the corn that is bothering you.

The popcorn may have contained gluten, and/or it may have been contaminated. Did you put seasonings or extra butter on the popcorn? Where they making any other food that may contain gluten? Also, are you lactose intolerant? Maybe the butter was an issue.

The best thing to do is maybe call and ask the brand of popcorn they use, determine if it's safe, and then evaluate the cross contamination issues where they are serving.

Hope this helps

The movie popcorn is Oroville Redenbauker at my theatre and I have been ok having it.

Orville Redenbacher should be gluten-free. I eat their natural popcorn with soy oil and haven't noticed any problems.

i used to eat oriville before the whole corn thing, and that is also waht they have at my movie therater so i could get t

Popcorn and popcorn oil are OK. The best selling toppings (Flavacol for one) are gluten-free but I can't guarantee you every place has them. In general, popcorn should be one of the safest things you can have.

It had some yellow stuff on it. We didn't ask for extra butter. I am lactos intolerant too but never get heart burn from lactos. They kept it uncovered and just scooped out the stuff. It didn't seem very "safe". I dunno.

I know corn is safe, it was if it was common that they have stuff on the corn. Hmm.. I know they sell other stuff too ther that might have Gluten. But I guess this will be unresolved.

Thanks for all the replies!!

(It was a Regal Cinema Theatre.)

I have been sick since that day anyways. I seem to be sensitiv or something...

It isn't real butter, just colored flavored vegetable oil. I always say, "No thanks, I'll have mine without 'buttery'."

i eat popcorn at every theatre I go to. I don't ever get butter, and never had a problem. Except, this past Saturday I ate some at a small theatre I had never been to, and threw up after the movie. Then I was fine. Hard to know, since I had also taken a pain pill that some times makes me nauseous.

we have Regal Cinemas here so I had contacted them about the popcorn, they told me that it was gluten-free. I didn't ask if they use the same brand throughout all of their theaters but at least the ones here are fine.
