The World Health Organization released a report yesterday which suggested that bacon and other processed meats cause cancer. They actually suggest meat is as dangerous as smoking.
First question: Is this really about health, or is it about multiculturalism, environmentalism or some other leftist cause?
Second question: Is the White House kitchen going to stop serving bacon based on this report?
Bacon is only cancerous to Musloids.
Red carpet treatment for moslems, no doubt. Medical science has known about the link between cancer and nitrates and nitrites for a good while now. And if that’s why they want to ban bacon, then lunch meats and hot dogs would likely be next.
I say ban moslems and let people eat whatever the hell they want. Can’t anybody mind their own fck’n business anymore?
Mmmmm bacon
Baloney!
Looks like you’re not aware that they reversed that prison pork ban. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/10/16/swine-and-dine-federal-prisons-reverse-pork-menu-ban-after-outcry/
WHO is full of crap regardless.

“…that simply eating 50 grams of processed meat each day — the equivalent of two slices of ham — can increase the risk of such cancer by 18%. However, the authors say the risks are relatively small to begin with.”
If risks are relatively small,,,then what’s the big hulabaloo???
The Lancet article lists these nine authors:
Véronique Bouvard
Dana Loomis
Kathryn Z Guyton
Yann Grosse
Fatiha El Ghissassi
Lamia Benbrahim-Tallaa
Neela Guha
Heidi Mattock
Kurt Straif
That one third of them have names that strongly suggest religious or cultural rejection of pork or beef is purely coincidental. Yeah-right.
Science, medicine and media have so discredited themselves, it’s doubtful many people will pay much attention to this “shocking” news.
Good.
My sentiments exactly. This is just another rung in the ever encroachment by the Nanny State.
Have they stopped serving fruit bat in those west African countries yet? Been documented repeatedly to be the root causes of Ebola virus. Have they stopped mutilating female genitalia in Musloid countries…it’s not exactly good for anyone other than the male horde.
My father ate bacon at breakfast every day of his life from early childhood onwards.
He died of colon cancer at age 74.
My mother eats bacon every morning and has done for most of her 95 years. She’ll be 96 in December and is still going strong.
I’m sorry about your father. but simply anecdotes don’t carry much weight. Look up Jim Fixx.
Edit: “…your father. But anecdotes simply…”
“Anthony Weiner was not available for comment.”
Don’t look at that Islamist agenda behind the curtain…
When did the WHO ever declare anything that wasn’t politically motivated and biased?
Anything coming out of the FedGov or UN is complete BULLSHIT.
Just rename bacon as…’An 8 year old boy’s ass’ then watch how it becomes a Muslim staple.
Something smells like a hog’s ass with this story.
Pay no attention to the Islamist agenda behind the curtain.
If they made a bacon flavored cigarette I would take up smoking.
And just think if they ever made a bacon flavored joint or worse infused it with Dorito’s how many new stoners they’re suddenly would be. You could smoke a joint and get the munchies at the same time. Far out man!
Don’t see the fish connection, but the guy that asked Med for mo ham is likely involved.
Does that mean I can finally retire and stop ‘bringing home the bacon?’
Thank you, I was thinking exactly that about peoples business.
Damn! Who doesn’t love bacon? Oh, Muslims… Pass them the dog meat.
I heard these reports yesterday too and thanks for posting something. Very skeptical about anything from any part of the gov’t. For one quite often contradictory.( Caffeine) for another there is always an agenda. ( climate change,)
For another who wants to hear bad news about BACON!
it is a pleasure in life . Sometimes I think there is a group
that simply want everyone else to be as miserable as them
Pale,( no sun) skinny ( no fat) and sad because any humor might offend someone.
Bottom line mind your own business and enjoy a BLT and if that is not your cup of tea, don’t have a hissy fit when someone else does.
Moslem Menus can go straight to Hell.
(I hear Eleanor Roosevelt loves hummus)
Personally, I think it tastes as bad as the name sounds.
Long known that nitrates in preserved meat aren’t very good
for you cause of free radicles. I eat an extra Vitamin C.
Fixed!
Wake up, America, before the Moslems outlaw dogs as pets because they are offended to live near them, and all non-Halal foods are removed from store shelves. Bacon is just the beginning.
Do you really want to live in Amerrakesh?
It’s coming, people. It’s coming, unless you stop it. 👿
I don’t want to be one of those guys who lives to be 100 and never had a decent meal. I’ll keep bacon on my menu.
Anecdotes are what statistics are made of.
I’m not sure about diet, by my last uncle to pass away made it to 95. . . stopped rolling his own cigarettes many years earlier. . . stopped going to bed with a cha of Redman at 75.
Researchers pumped a gallon of water into a lab rat and it exploded.
Water is bad for you.
Would Hillary taking a 10-gallon coffee enema have the same effect?
Worth a try, huh? 😉
Obviously you have never heard of a hummus jobbus.
😉
“Soylent Green is people!” This is yet another scam from the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy. The age-old question has to be asked here – Cui Bono? Who Benefits?
They’re gonna have to pry my Big Green Egg from my cold dead hands
Absolutely true, as long as you have enough of them. And statistics are useful, as long as you remember that they apply to aggregates and not individuals. You can say that a group that shares some set of characteristics has, for example, a 50% incidence of toenail cancer, but if you look at one person in that group, he either has toenail cancer or he doesn’t have toenail cancer. The message here is that you can’t reverse the process and go from statistics to anecdotes.
When you get into moderation, substitutes and pricing all statistics go out the window.
I don’t eat bacon daily, but sometimes I have it 3 days in a row, then none for a week. Same with hot dogs, if I open a pack I tend to eat them within a few days. After that I’m onto something else and depending on price and value, I will choose to eat differently. Bacon sometimes rockets up to $5.50-$6lb, so I don’t buy it, when it’s $3-$4lb, I buy it.
Smells like halal. There’s only one tyrannical system that hates the pork industry as much as it hates Jews and Christians, it’s called Islam.
secret to long life? BACON!! BACON!! BACON!!!
