The World Health Organization (WHO) just announced that eating processed meat or even red meat could cause cancer.
Appalling or unbelievable? Or, it's not such a concern for you, and you'll just ignore it and keep eating whatever you want to eat - especially if you are from an area where food shortage is such a problem.
It seems we eat some such meat every day, should it be ham, sausage, or bacon. What if we're warned not to eat any of them? Should all the products be removed from the shelf? And where should the meat go - dumped as garbage or to countries where people are so hungry?
Another question arises here: what the hell are we supposed or encouraged to eat? Just eat vegetables? Do we really need the nutrition - the protain of the meat? It's hard for some of us to imagine life without eating such meat, though. Maybe it's good news for vegetarians.
The WHO also implied that it was the amount that we should be aware. Yes, it may mean if you don't eat too much, then it's okay. Then how much is too much? Does 'one sausage a day' sound like too much or appropriate?
We tead to eat what tastes or looks great and may fail to be aware of what the ingredients are. Maybe it's not a good idea now if we are really concerned about our health, even though you've not got carcinophobia.
What's the cost to eat healthy? Is it hard for you to avoid all the delicious food? Let's talk about it.
