While trying to find anything to help with gas pains following surgery on 8/31, remembered someone had given me a popcorn sleeve that can be heated in microwave. It's about 18" x 5". You heat in microwave for less than 2 minutes. Best thing is u can wrap around your neck or put in localized area. Really helps. Bet u could put loose popcorn in a sock and close top of sock somehow.

Pardon my ignorance, but does the microwave not pop the popcorn after two minutes?

D.

According to the directions, you put in the microwave for less than two minutes. It didn't pop in mine, but could depend on each microwave. I guess you can adjust as needed.

I have one that is similar but it is full of what seem like lentil size beans. I love it! I use it to warm my feet in bed in the winter too.

I bet that's even better. No worries about the popping and the smell of the popcorn on post-op clear liquids is brutal! Lol

Love your picture RobinGirl! So cute!

Thanks! I'm waiting until I find a "thinner" pic to change it

a good idea. another idea is to put white rice in a sock. heated for a very short time in the microwave it retains heat well.
