Popcorn Lung

Today would be an AC/DC day.

Malcolm Young, AC/DC Guitarist and Co-Founder, Dead at 64

Sad day for rocker's. Remember many a night cruising with AC/DC blaring away.

You probably have better odds of being attacked by a polar bear and grizzly bear in the same day than you do of developing popcorn lung TBH.

I keep pre-written replies for some topics in my "Documents" folder just for debunking recurring misinformation.

I vape custards and creams and butters while microwaving orville redenbachers kettle corn am I at risk?

only if you do all the above while in the microwave while its on...

The vapor is probably safer than the air in a lot of places.

I will agree with that.... especially when my dog eats too much salami...

That old dog is making its way around FB again, I’ve had people in my feed share it too, so I’ve stepped in and said my piece on it. The part they always fail to mention is that the chemical in question, diacetyl, is also present in cigarettes at levels supposedly 750x higher. We aren’t seeing smokers dropping like flies from popcorn lung, so the chance of it happening to vapers is even lower. If it concerns you avoid liquids that have that ingredient, which isn’t a choice you can make while smoking. For me, I love my custards so I choose to knowingly use flavorings that contain diacetyl. Not even worried.

Besides, if you were smoking for 30 years and then switched to vaping, do you really think your popcorn lung is from your 5 ml of custard juice vaped for the last 2 years?

That could never happen.
Santa Claus would save you.
