What's the harm in a little acrylamide? This sounds like junkfood science.

I think I have heard, if you analyze food...there are traces of arsenic and all kinds of "harmful" chemicals that are negated in the eating.

So if I stop eating potato chips, quit going to McDonalds, eat Tofu and veggies I will be able to extend my life by a few years.......A few more years spent sitting & drooling in the old folks home......Oh yeah, that's worth it

What a load of rubbish !

Haven't these "legal eagles" got something better to do with their time and funding ?

A Packet of Crisps and a Beer is a very enjoyable combination.

Tofu tastes like wet chalk. (I have never actually eaten wet chalk...I'm sure you get my drift.)

Heading straight to the kitchen for a few Cape Cod Classic Chips this very moment. It's been nice talking to you all, as I'll be dead in the morning, with a piece of chip stuck between my front teeth.

I propose that EVERYONE on Death Row be issued a double - no, TRIPLE - portion daily for a more humane method of death.

[Conservomax]

there is only one group and one group alone that should be held responsible.

yes, i'm talking about the irish.

Just think, when they establish a 5-day waiting period to eat chips...you won't be able to just waltz into the kitchen for a snack....

[dfwgator]

Well, they did warn that, "betcha can't eat just one."

No matter what you eat you will eventually die :O

I make my own potato chips.

But, I think this is BS right out of the tobacco witch hunts of the '90s.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

There's a lack of notice on Public Health Advocates that they usually over-react to health risks.

[paulat]

I make my own potato chips.

What's your recipe? Do you have to use a deep fryer, or can you make 'em in an oven. Every time I've tried, it's been a miserable failure. I would love to know your tips!

[Trillian]

Me too!
I ate half a can of salt n vinegar pringles. Take that public health! ::shakes fist::
