    "It’s probably not something you think about every day, whether or not the foods you are eating could contain carcinogens, but with almost 1.5 million people diagnosed with some type of cancer just last year, perhaps it’s time to look at what is in our foods that could be causing such a huge number of new cancer patients. Here is a list of the top 10 foods that you most likely consume every day that may contain carcinogens or be suspected of causing cancer"

    Why do they publish such rubish when there is no facts around the claim? Its either "could" or "possibly" or "maybe" cause this or that. I might as well live in a plastic bubble my whole life on Mars!

    Mars will give you cancer.

    Maybe work causes cancer! I feel nauseous I think I need to talk to HR

    I couldn't get past the 2nd slideshow image because of their damn annoying popups. And that's with Adblock on... jeebus. I think that website is a cancer.

    Lol! I hate those websites with slideshows. Loaded with ads just to make more money.

    Read up on the environmental contaminant PCB. We're all contaminated and there's nothing we can do about it.

    Well since slides 1-4 have already been consumed today, I guess I need to updated my will :-)
    They love to scare people with the big C. I'm going to start a blog called, "websites that lists foods that cause cancer cause cancer" LOL. Eat good food, exercise, and live life.

    Do potato chips actually have trans fats anymore?

    Jones Salt and Vinegar chips have 4 grams of trans fat per serving. Unfortunately, they are the best tasting chips ever and local to Ohio.

    Wow. I had no idea. I haven't really eaten them lately, but assumed the trans fats were gone. wow. Thanks.

    I feel like it may fit in this category to explain that there's no such thing as "dying of natural causes."

    You pretty much have to die of something. Usually when people die of "natural causes" it means their heart said "screw it, I'm done."

    do you mean "old age", not "natural causes"? cause heart attack/cancer is a natural cause.

    I try to avoid most of these things. I think there's some merit to them not being great for you - especially nitrates and smoking meats. I actively attempt to avoid GMOs and hormones. I'm not perfect, but I feel good about reducing my intake of all items on this list (except Alcohol - you can't make me give up the *maybe* 10 glasses of wine I have a year!!)

    Why do you avoid GMO's? They are completely safe to eat. I actually go out of my way to avoid organic food.

    Do you keep memes in your back pocket, or in a binder somewhere for when you need them? Do you keep an account of memes somewhere, and recognize a situation where you can just whip one out at a moment's notice?
