> It makes as much sense for you to claim this is an attempt to introduce universal Kosher dietary restrictions.
Oh I agree with that as far as dietary restrictions go. But as far as I can tell, the Western world is not currently being invaded by hordes of Jewish people with a view towards imposing their laws, dietary and otherwise, on the rest of us. :-)
I have, for decades, heard that processed meat causes cancer. That's one of the things that science has never wavered on (unlike eggs or coffee or fat).
And I agree with the study. Processed meat is especially bad.
I've not eaten any meat (fish excepted) in nearly 40 years. I don't miss it. I'm in my 60s and not even overweight (whereas many Americans my age are obese).
