my ortho said its on the 'no eat' list because all the skins and kernals can get under the gums and hinder the movement of the teeth/wires. But....I love popcorn too...so I am just really careful :)

So far for me it's mainly bread, pasta, meats, melted cheese (especially from pizza) gets wrapped around the wires sometimes.

All of that healthy and delicious green stuff: broccoli, spinach, lettuce, cilantro....it is going to be a long while before I can really enjoy eating in public again. Upside is I LOVE that water pik. My husband says I literally run to the bathroom to use it after eating!!
