It is a huge family of diseases that… work in the body in very similar ways, but … more or less, each different kind of tissue in your body has different things that are either known to, or are strongly suspected to increase the likelihood that a cancer will develop in them.

I know charcuterie is bad, and smoked meat is horrible… Actually, yeah, fair, that’s most of the ways I can come up with for heavily processing meat. I guess minced meat is fine?

Looks like anything with sodium nitrate, like bacon. Sodium nitrate reacts with the protein to form DNA damaging nitrosamines
but it taste good :(
there’s evidence that everything causes cancer, but like i live in california
Turns out living causes cancer
Yo momma causes cancer. She’s made of crabs
Red meat isn’t the problem, it’s the fuzzy greenish-blue meat you’ve got to worry about.
