Q: Is eating raw meat safer? A: There were no data to address this question in relation to #cancer risk

At that rate, how long before my chances of dev. cancer are 99.999…%? @WHO

@Minutemaniac @WHO one would think the chemicals used in processed meats would be outlawed, but it helps the medical industrial complex

Eh, I'm not into prohibitions. People should eat whatever they want. @mr_scottie @WHO

@Minutemaniac @WHO agreed, but food should be less artificial as well.

There's plenty that is. I have free range grain-fed chicken eggs and non-steroid/non-antibiotic beef in the fridge. @mr_scottie @WHO

My grandfather ate nothing but vienna sausages, hot dogs, potted meat, bacon, hamburgers, and Cheetos for 91 years. @mr_scottie @WHO

@Minutemaniac @WHO he ate well then :)

@WHO @HECTORRAMIREZDO esto será, hasta que digan lo contrario.
