A new American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study says that french fries are linked to a higher risk of death.
The study looked at potato consumption for people over 45 but younger than 79. Of the 4,400 people tested over eight years, 236 passed away.

The study goes to great lengths to state that the link is only an association and that more study is needed.Our tax dollars at work.

Easy to get confused, everybody eats French Fries and Everybody Dies.
Just any FYI, it’s the Heinz Ketchup killing everyone.

If you eat French fries, you’ll eventually die.

These “studies” are invalid. They do not consider all the variables. They deliberately choose a few variables to consider.
The media grabs the “study” and turns it into doctor’s orders.

Reading of stupid studies may well lead to an early death.
What were the ages of the deceased? General health? Heart? What else did they eat? Smokers?
Any group of people that eat ANYTHING will produce a death statistic.
Also, how much of the problem is the simple result of OVEREATING? Even overdoing what is rated as good for you can cause problems.

Nobody who has eaten a Unicorn with a side of French Fries has ever died.

I have no study, but, if you live a long time you get closer and closer to death, even if you are super healthy, you will die.

Of the 4,400 people tested over eight years, 236 passed away. It wasn't the french fries, it was the testing that did them in.

I was in Germany for a while a few years ago, and they drown French Fries in Mayonnaise. Sounds awful but I got to liking it. I got great fries everywhere I went, the wonderful beer might have helped.

I knew the French had it in for us.

Death is just Nature’s way of telling us to slow down; or, I’ll take it real easy until I die then taper off.

ANY food connected to inner city black citizens will correlate with ‘not healthy’.

French fries and mayo is, or used to be, a treat in European movie theaters like popcorn here.
