A popular Thanksgiving dinner staple in the United States is banned in several European countries and Japan due to two ingredients being linked to cancer.

Stove Top Stuffing, an instant boxed stuffing mix that is popular to have with Thanksgiving dinner, contains two ingredients, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), that are “known human carcinogens and may cause other health problems,” Dr. Neha Pathak, MD, who serves on the Medical Team for WebMD explained to the New York Post.

The product is banned in the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Japan. Pathak explained that “these types of preservatives” are banned due to the “cancer risk.”

“A lot of countries have much stricter rules around what’s allow[ed] in food,” Pathak told the outlet.

Another good reason to ask God to bless our food before pigging out - every meal!

Liberals never act for the benefit of another. The fact that you might think they are shows your ignorance about them.

Their actions are just a means to their intentions. They want to control what you eat. By removing one food item at a time, they will end up accomplishing their purpose and you will be left eating something that resembles gruel, but it will be approved.

They will be happy and you’ll be suicidal, because population control is also on their agenda and making your life miserable enough to take yourself out and forego children is all about that.

They are not out to make life better for you.

Brings to mind those classic Breyers commercials with kids struggling to read the ingredients:

I can only stick to tried and true - otherwise it’s a disaster! Last week I ventured into the unknown making chili one day and stew on another.......complete failures!

My mom is buried in NJ but I can hear her spinning in her grave all the way down here in Fl over the very existence of boxed stuffing.

I believe it's an art to cook...really. I have no patience in the kitchen. The sooner I can get out of there the happier I am, so I've learned how to cheat at cooking.

An example....I use Campbell's Veg soup. But I add some stewed tomatoes, a bit of garlic....for the homemade ‘taste’....Works great!

No it’s what happens when you have an FDA that isn’t fully owned by corporate interests and don’t give a damn about public health and safety.

There is so much crap in foods sold in America that are toxic it is insane.

Our government literally has approve petroleum byproducts as “safe to eat”.. not because they are, but because they are captive to corporate interests, and aren’t serving the public at all.
