Where's the "do not insert into bodily orifices except for purposes of consumption" label?

Sticking a sausage up your arse does not give you cancer. I know..er...read about that.

What about bacon?  Somebody should warn Caliga.

I wonder how much one would have to pay someone to be part of *that* clinical trial.

Actually, that's the most common cause of colon cancer.

Oh you meant an actual sausage.

doesn't need a warning label, just needs accurate labelling.

and a strong USDA/FDA meat inspection program.

do you yanks know that USDA inspects Canadian meat packers because of trade agreements? according to published documents on their website, they routinely find stuff our CFIA doesn't... it's pretty funny we have to rely on a foreign government for food safety.

Does anyone actually care about cancer anymore?  I mean, really, every food, activity and lack thereof known to man causes cancer, so why spend the lifespan worrying about it?  Either you get it, or you don't.  There is absolutely nothing you can do to reduce your risk or avoid it.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

You can not be black.  That apparently helps reduce the risk quite a bit :ph34r:

Just got back from the grocery store.  I had a hankering for hot dogs.  Also picked up some whole wheat buns.

Totally agree with Neil on this.

I'm worried that I'm agreeing with Neil too much of late :huh:

I think I'm going to die of a disease. I've a pre-disposition on one or both sides to pretty much everything. :(
