Bacon and ham sold in the UK should carry cigarette-style labels warning that chemicals in them cause bowel cancer, scientists say.
Their demand comes as they criticise successive British governments for doing “virtually nothing” to reduce the risk from nitrites in the decade since they were found to definitely cause cancer.
Saturday marks a decade since the World Health Organization in October 2015 declared processed meat declared processed meat to be carcinogenic to humans, putting it in the same category as tobacco and asbestos.
Yeah but imagine having to explain to your daughter at breakfast, “Daddy, what’s that on the label? What’s cancer?”
“Don’t worry about it, honey. This is just more government bullshit, like with COVID and Brexit. The Muslims are trying to make eating pork illegal. Have an extra portion. Don’t let them tell you what to do.”
🤮
Makes sense, but I wonder if hiding it just makes people less aware overall Probably not a conversation for your child at breakfast though
I’m telling you now, if they do this, with the current political climate, people will goto farms that don’t use “woke” labeling (god I hate that word)
