....Sausage, the W.H.O. has now listed it as dangerous and in the same category as tobacco and Arsenic.

What a crock....is that going to make anyone stop eating any on this ? Not me...but then moderation is the key to everything. I personally think it has more to do with regulating and taxing than health. Even air itself is listed as a carcinogen.

You have to laugh at the silliness of some with too much time on their hands to come up with this stuff. Everything is bad for you when taken in too much quantity or of poor quality. Is that really anything news worthy ?

Looks like we have to add an "S" to the ATF.....Alcohol/Tobacco/Firearms/....and Sausage. Maybe a concealed carry permit is in order for that Italian sausage. lol

Lips and a-holes and maybe a few eye sockets for taste.
You ever see me eating a hotdog Armageddon is just around the corner.

lol....sure they do. They just eat so much that nothing is left but dirt. Everyone knows the fastest land animal is an Ethiopian chicken.

Why do they release things like this as "breaking news"?

When is the LAST time your M.D. told you to go on a bacon/sausage based diet?

And it was more than a bit "absurd" to put bacon in with tobacco, asbestos, etc. Right, as if they were equally carcinogenic. Of course they are NOT, but that was NOT noted!

Tony is right, if we sit around worrying about EVERYTHING that will give us cancer there would be nothing left to eat. Apropos of this, did anyone see Colbert's take on hot dogs and bacon over the last night or two. Small traces of human DNA found in some hot dogs, and many tofu (veggie) dogs are 10% meat? lol

The Greeks had it right. Moderation in all things. And hope to heck that your food and water staples have not been irreparably contaminated!

How can we keep Polk forum threads "clean" when we can't even do that with our food supply? lol

Amen to that. The old Greeks got more than a few things right, unlike todays. lol

Small traces of human DNA in hotdogs ?? Well, the mob has to do something with the bodies. We put dead dogs back into dog food, just a matter of time we select another filler for ours. Some at the U.N. think we should all have our kids on a diet of insects too....so I take anything coming out of these world organizations with less than a grain of salt.
