Lets face it each time we go to the cinema,
its quite difficult to walk past a popcorn
stand, even if its been years since you told
yourself that you would no longer indulge in this
popular snack that goes hand-in-hand with
watching movies. But did you know that
consumption of popcorn is responsible for a
number of diseases, including a rare and fatal
disease called popcorn lung illness, also known
as bronchiolitis obliterans. This type of illness
is caused by consumption and inhalation of
certain types of artificial butter flavorings
used in microwave popcorn.

What Do the Studies Say About Bronchiolitis
Obliterans?
Not all popcorn production workers are exposed to
hazardous flavorings in popcorn. Depending on
man-made flavorings commonly used in microwave
popcorn and the manufacturing process of the
popular snack, plant workers may be exposed to
the risk of developing popcorn lung illness
(bronchiolitis obliterans).

Studies indicate that diacetyl causes
bronchiolitis obliterans, which is a fancy term
for popcorn lung illness characterized by fixed
airway obstruction. Regardless of whether you are
a moviegoer, popcorn consumer, or plant worker
who has been diagnosed with popcorn lung
illness, you need to know your rights. After
all, you may be eligible to recover compensation
by suing liable parties who failed to comply with
regulations imposed by the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
Luckily, you may be able to pursue a product
liability case against the popcorn manufacturer.
And the lawyers at SSF Law Firm are going to
explain how you can do that in a bit.

Bronchiolitis Obliterans Symptoms
If you have noticed any of the following
symptoms, you may want to see a doctor as soon as
possible as these symptoms are associated with
bronchiolitis obliterans as well as other lung
problems such as emphysema, asthma, and
bronchitis
  • Fever
  • Wheezing and
  • Lung tissue scarring or hardening
  • Dry cough
  • Night sweats
  • Shortness of breath

Thus, you do not necessarily need to consume
popcorn to be at risk of this illness, warns the
Pittsburgh popcorn lung illness lawyer from
Shenderovich, Shenderovich Fishman.
Popcorn plant workers and popcorn sellers at
movie theaters are even more likely to be
diagnosed with this illness. says Pittsburgh
medical malpractice attorney.
