Thanks for sharing, Kuya Bernie.  I've been a meat-eater all my young and adult life.  I don't eat vegetables except when meat with fat is mixed like in pinakbet (bittermelon, eggplant, stringbeans, squash, okra) - the Filipino ratatouille.  My daily diets are composed mostly of everything that's too dangerous for human consumption - SPAM, bacon, frankfurters (I don't like or buy hotdogs), salami, canned sausages and corned beef, and all red meat.  Guess what?! I'm still alive.

Happy barbecuing!

sannie   Processed Meats Declared Too Dangerous for Human Consumption By Mike Adams The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) has just completed a detailed review of more than 7,000 clinical studies covering links between diet and cancer. Its conclusion is rocking the health world with startling bluntness: Processed meats are too dangerous for human consumption. Consumers should stop buying and eating all processed meat products for the rest of their lives. Processed meats include bacon, sausage, hotdogs, sandwich meat, packaged ham, pepperoni, salami and virtually all red meat used in frozen prepared meals. They are usually manufactured with a carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium nitrite. This is used as a color fixer by meat companies to turn packaged meats a bright red color so they look fresh. Unfortunately, sodium nitrite also results in the formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines in the human body. And this leads to a sharp increase in cancer risk for those who eat them. A 2005 University of Hawaii study found that processed meats increase the risk of pancreatic cancer by 67 percent. Another study revealed that every 50 grams of processed meat consumed daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 50 percent. These are alarming numbers. Note that these cancer risks do not come from eating fresh, non-processed meats. They only appear in people who regularly consume processed meat products containing sodium nitrite. Sodium nitrite appears predominantly in red meat products (you won't find it in chicken or fish products). Here's a short list of food items to check carefully for sodium nitrite and monosodium glutamate (MSG), another dangerous additive: * Beef jerky * Bacon * Sausage * Hot dogs * Sandwich meat * Frozen pizza with meat * Canned soups with meat * Frozen meals with meat * Ravioli and meat pasta foods * Kid's meals containing red meat * Sandwich meat used at popular restaurants * Nearly all red meats sold at public schools, restaurants, hospitals, hotels and theme parks If sodium nitrite is so dangerous to humans, why do the FDA and USDA continue to allow this cancer-causing chemical to be used? The answer, of course, is that food industry interests now dominate the actions by U.S. government regulators. The USDA, for example, tried to ban sodium nitrite in the late 1970's but was overridden by the meat industry. It insisted the chemical was safe and accused the USDA of trying to "ban bacon." [Ed.
