Popcorn Food Poisoning

Popcorn Food Poisoning

Popcorn could be the source of food poisoning. In 2012, ready-to-eat popcorn was recalled due to contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a bacteria that leads to food poisoning and severe illness. Listeria can be especially harmful to pregnant women, people over the age of 65, and those with weakened immune systems.

Took my partner to see Dune 2 for his birthday and we ordered the half carmel and half cheese flavored popcorn. After the movie I just felt tired and weak, really warm and stomach was upset. Doubt we'll be returning to that AMC. The staff had their hands all in the popcorn with NO GLOVES.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Weakness
