Next time you visit the cinema, you may want to pass on the giant barrel of popcorn. Even before you add the fake butter, a medium-size movie theater popcorn and a soda have as much fat and calories as three quarter-pounders. Great Caesar's ghost!
This story comes from the Center for Science in the Public Interest, which releases reports a few times a year to tell us what we should pretty much have known anyway: the mall cinnamon rolls, the supermarket processed foods and the movie theater snacks -- among other things that Americans are consuming vast quantities of -- are all horrifically bad for us.
As food expert Michael Pollan says, "Don't eat anything your grandmother wouldn't recognize as food."

I have to disagree on this one. The movie going experience is simply not the same without popcorn.
You'll have to take my popcorn and soda out of my cold dead hands.
