Vee, that one has been around for a long time. Presenved meats have nitrates in them. Not sure how much evidence there is that nitrates increase the risk of cancer.

It has - but a new report has hit the media here - chiefly because amongst other things the originators say that eating sausages is particularly bad for you. Panic has struck the journalists. Laughing

When you look at it in more depth, it is of course further research into the effects of preservatives in food.

The one slightly peculiar recommendation was to eat red meats instead of preserved meats.

Geeze Louise --- now they say red meats? I can't keep up with all this stuff. Wine is good, then it's bad. Red meat is bad, then it's good.

I say fuhgetaboutit --- I'm eating what I want and enjoying my life.

(Somebody will probably get upset with that remark! Shocked )
