Sticking your head up a butcher's ass will also cause cancer.

Of course, I'm generalizing. But one time does not make a trend.

Generally, you give science a middle finger under the guise of "government sponsored."

I ain't mad at you, I like you. But you're kind of a kook when it comes to nutrition. You often take whatever seems to make sense to you as gospel and ignore science.

Smart too. Seems so simple. Eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, lean meat and fish... Indulge in a BLT or Ribeye every so often (like you would alcohol)...

I love lamp

WHO is govt related. Govt screws things up more than they don't.

You absolutely ignore science, sweetheart. Anytime it doesn't coincide with your wacky anecdotal opinions, you ignore science. There's no such thing as natural science vs govt associated science. That's simply you applying your confirmation bias to the outside world.

WHO is government related? What is that even supposed to mean? The WHO is made up of 61 different countries around the world.

Kind of a kook?

True that.

The conspiracy theory nonsense, as you put it, has credibility with a lot of people for two reasons:
  1. Because the "well curated, sensible information" has been wrong often enough that it matters
  2. Because the conspiracy theories have turned out to have been right, or close to right, often enough that it matters

1. It's not the meat, but the processing
2. Categorization with cigarettes isn't about similar carcinogen density, but similar level of scientific certainty regarding the carcinogenic nature of processing byproducts.

It's kind of like warning that styrofoam can crush you much like concrete can. Sure, but it's going to take a much larger volume of styrofoam on your chest.

I believe they are saying it's the meat and the processing. Processing just amplifies the risk.

It won't be long before red meat itself is agreed upon by most health authorities as a carcinogen, IMO.

Stewie 10-26-2015 03:32 PM

That liberal rag the KC Star has an article pointing out the conflicts in this "research" that "proves" a certain food causes cancer. It's ridiculous and unfounded. The largest consumers of red meat (surprisingly they don't live in the US) have no higher incidence of cancer than any other group.

In 1990, coffee was the death knell. Now, people can't drink it fast enough.

Pick and choose the parts of this article that support your idea of how you'll die... or live forever.

Food alone doesn't make for a happy life anyway.

Do you think obesity and the epidemic of Diabetes Type 2 makes anyone happy?

Your taste buds change huh? Science.
