    They should stop all these stupid surveys as living can give you cancer.

    But they can cure hunger ..

    They have also bunged porridge into that list of "bad" food for you

    Jaysis, well there go my fried sausages, burnt black and dripping with grease...

    This isn't new news though, heard the same 10 or 15 years ago, maybe more. It's the browning of the food that creates these chemicals. Should we all be microwaving our sausages now, father? Maybe I'll invest in a sous-vide...

    If we listen to the surveys we won't get cancer.

    we'll all be dead from starvation long before any cancer gets a chance to develop. Then there wouldn't be anyone left to get cancer or do surveys on it.

    Sometimes I wish those fools doing the surveys got cancer. I don't actually wish anyone to get cancer but those surveys really annoy me.

    Whenever ANY survey is published, just ask yourself "Who paid for this, and what are they selling? "
    If it's on Facebook or any "End of times" type site, it's almost guaranteed to be highly biased, sensationalist, alarmist and misguided.

    Seems if you cook any kind of starchy foods they are bad for you.

    I'm waiting to hear that fruit & veg are bad for you next.
