Whenever "they" say that "studies have shown" or "updated testing revealed"... I usually discredit it.

Wasn't it decided at one point that salt was bad... then salt was good... now salt is okay in moderation.... not to mention the whole aritificial sweetener crappola.

The same story is headline news this side of the pond also. Is nothing safe these days?

Well, if it's on the cover next to a headline pertaining to Sienna Miller... it MUST be true.

Glad to see you Brits are into high-quality journalism. HEY. I HEAR THERE'S SOME SHIT GOING DOWN ON THE GAZA STRIP.

Who cares. Sienna totally told Jude that it's over.

It makes sense as the changes to certain oils during heating can be carcinogenic, but the mere fact it's on the front of that evil rag the Mail makes me want to eat chips out of spite.

Hmm, this is what i found...

Quote:
In a new study, women were more likely to get breast cancer if they had regularly eaten french fries decades earlier as preschoolers.

The report appears in the online edition of the International Journal of Cancer. It's based on the Nurses' Health Study, a long-term health study of a large group of nurses.

The study focused on 582 nurses who had breast cancer and more than 1,500 who didn't have breast cancer in 1993. Their mothers were asked how often the nurses had eaten 30 different foods as preschoolers.
It's from fox news... heres the link.

If we didn't eat anything that was reported to be 'bad for us' - we'd bloody well starve! I remember reading somewhere that apples are bad for you, cos the acid corrodes your teeth.

Humbug!

actually, the natural sugars in apples do more damage than refined sugars...

It only took them 40 years to figure that one out!!!

No wonder the doctor told me to stop drinking cider or look for a new liver.

Let's see:

We can't eat tuna because of pollution
We can't eat chips cos of cancer
We can't eat cheese cos of cholesterol
We can't eat sweets cos of the sugar
We can't eat tomatoes cos they're too acidic
We can't eat babies cos it's illegal
We can't eat MacDonalds cos they have tumours in em
We can't drink coffee, cos of the caffeine

I'm off to slit my wrists.

Not sure. But it said on the side of the can that is was only good for greasing engines and killing brain cells.

Occasionally I'll get the Observer or Guardian, but all papers seem to have an agenda, even the Independent.

Well, we're all going to die eventually anyway. I'm getting very bored of these 'doom' stories. Who wants to know? I like chips! What's the point in life without chips?! Honestly...


A golden energy
Was rising out of my head
I shed my evil skin
And found myself again

I was wrong, I don't mind
The impossible seems possible
This time I'm an electric wire
If the sun can radiate then so can I
