Biggest objection to that angle for me is “well I never eat microwave popcorn” makes it too easy to dismiss the problem.

I’d still bet that “groundwater contamination” (or “drinking water contamination” from manufacturing is the single largest source for almost anyone, but it looks like microwave popcorn is shockingly high when it comes to food and food packaging.
