what is safe or unsafe. I don't generally eat crisps, but this takes
the biscuit.

Cancer warning over posh crisps as study shows they contain three times recommended levels of acrylamide

[Old_Geezer]

Way above recommended levels but one wonders where that stands against unsafe levels. Is there a banned level ? How many kilograms of posh crisps would one have to eat daily to be in peril ? Well worth being aware of though.

Biscuits? Oooo no you can't eat biscuits! All that sugar. No no no.

sounds like low hanging fruit to me

I wonder what the food gurus would think of the old snack of bread and dripping liberally sprinkled with salt (yum)

[donny48]

Morning Danny , even better toasted.

[dannyk13]

Good morning Donny. Yes, it was.

[ummmm]

I never pay heed to these stories. We all know what is good and bad.

[youngmafbog]

The stress of worrying over unsafe foods is probably killing more!

[hereIam]

Never, ever take any notice of these warnings that come out every now and again, just eat what I want, when I want !

[emmie]

they are such doom sayers though, i often wonder what is safe to eat, greens only sounds a bit bland, meat too much fat, what's next on the hit list of bad for you food stuffs.

[hereIam]

That's all they are em - doom sayers - just ignore 'em !

I am sorry but I don't listen to food scares anymore.In my 70 years of life there has always been food scares,yes right back to the 1950's.
"Don't eat this" and some time after"This is alright to eat" and so it goes on.If you eat anything in moderation you won't come to harm.I have reached the age I am eating a varied (and sometimes "banned") diet and am in good health.I often wonder who invents these stories,and just what (financially?) they get out of them.

I expect they'll soon be added to the Daily Mail's impressively long list of things that cause cancer, along with flip flops and working
