4 years ago while researching what artificial butter flavor was made from, I came across a news report about several people in a popcorn plant having gotten a rare lung disease from breathing in particulates from artificial butter flavor.
Now I came across a report of a popcorn-eating consumer who has been diagnosed with the same rare lung disease:

This sort of makes me glad I passed on the free popcorn they were giving out at work today, especially since the butter-flavor on that popcorn is usually so strong it tastes yucky after a while.
