The culprit is coconut oil, which is 86 percent saturated. Most theater chains pop their corn with it; the fake butter-usually made from partially hydrogenated soybean oil-can boost the saturated fat by a third. Even chains advertising that they pop with more healthful canola oil are actually canola shortening, not the liquid oil-and shortening arteries almost as efficiently as saturated fat. CSPI is urging the chains to switch to commercial air poppers that add just a little soybean oil and salt to the popcorn....

But just because it’s going to be a while until the two sides hammer out some sort of resolution, that doesn’t mean we have to stop discussing what might/should happen when the sport eventually resumes.
