The percentage is tiny.
I stand by that if you worry about it that much, you have serious health issues. The actual percentages are tiny, and heavily overblown by food fetishists.

I was actually speaking in terms of how smoking affects your overall health long term, not just cancer.
Is is no case to be made that smoking is healthy or does not put you at a much larger risk of dying earlier of related diseases...
The smoking stats..
Smoking accounts for 30 percent of all cancer deaths and 87 percent of lung cancer deaths; the risk of developing lung cancer is about 23 times higher in male smokers compared to non-smokers; smoking is associated with increased risk of at least 15 types of cancer; or that smoking causes millions of deaths worldwide.
That being said: My grandfather smoked for 80 years, mostly unfiltered, he died from a misdiagnosis... bad heart value..
