Maybe people who are looking for some kindness after an ordeal? This would not be the newsgroup for it to be sure, but I imagine that's why. She's probably not up to running a footrace, but seems reasonable to post if she feels up to it. Why is it a problem? Cheri |

Except...she will pick and choose a bit more than you might have noticed. Much of what I say to her, though in her best interests, she will take a wide berth around. Yet chronic abuse from Wertz, that she sadly returns to like a dog to it's vomit. Pardon the graphic analogy, but it is apt. |

I prepare a huge batch in my Wearever Popcorn Pumper at least once a week, I fill a 24 cup bowl, drizzle with about three Tbls of melted real butter and sprinkle with a couple three pinches salt... no pop corn is better... well okay, I used to love Cracker Jacks but they changed the recipe, doubled the price, halved the box size, and eliminated the good toys... a large box used to cost a nickle, and I still use a little plastic magnifier from more than 65 years ago. Oh, and Cracker Jacks used to contain a generous amount of peanuts, an excellent source of protein... last time I bought a box, some ten years ago, not one peanut... and the toy was a stupid bit of paper no better than from a Chinese fortune cookie. I don't know how Cracker Jacks stays in business. I can buy a two pound bag of generic popping corn for less than a dollar, look for it in the produce section. |

Why is it a problem? I am stuck at home and can't do much. I did manage to make dinner for two of us and place an online grocery order because even though I thought there was plenty of food, they ate up all of some things like eggs. *sigh* I am supposed to get plenty of rest and remain upright as much as possible due to where the incision is. And although I am not to exercise, I have to get up and walk around every hour. I also took my first Levothyroxine pill today and it rocketed into me like I was going hyperthyroid. So... I feel all speeded up and sleep isn't an option. I am going to try to lie down for a little while because it's easier to put an ice pack on that way but I think I am getting to where I don't need them any more. |

You obviously didn't read the post, I said Corn Pop cereal was a lot more unhealthy than popcorn eaten for breakfast. I have 2 TBS of popcorn, popped dry in a frying pan a couple of times a week. It's a good snack. Cheri |

I suppose instant 'everything' is a lot to do with the problem Taxing won't help. They did try that here. Not sure if it is still going or not. But they also taxed sugar free drinks the same. |
