According to the state of California most of us are already dead from cancer—so what do we have to lose? :-)

(“known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm”),

This nonsense is getting out of hand in California. Not long ago I picked up a propane gas bottle and it said something like...”WARNING! Burning this substance produces an emission known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm”.

Go home, California. You’re drunk.

Good news though. Random anal sex still healthy.

Kalifornicans won’t be able to live without their Starbucks.

Whenever the health Nazi stuff comes up trying to needlessly scare people, I go read the MDSD for the product in question.

To start, Material Safety Data Sheets are designed for doctors and safety people to understand, not the general public. They are dry and very clinical, using lots of acronyms. So if some soccer mom reads the MDSD for DHMO, she gets the vapors, not realizing DHMO is water.

I always look at toxicological data, usually lab tests on rats. I review the LD50, which is the lethal dose for about 50% of the population that ingests it.

The LD50 for acrylamide is 565 mg/kg. So, a 190 lb man weighs about 4.5 kG. 565X4.5=1543 mG of acrylamide.

Since acrylamide levels in coffee are about 200 parts per billion (of 1 billions drops of coffee, 200 are pure acrylamide) the trace amount.

If you were to take that further, a billion drops of water equates to about 28 billion gallons of coffee. Of that, 200 milligrams are acrylamide. That equals roughly FOUR DROPS of Acrylamide in 28 billion gallons of coffee.

Result-California regulators are scientifically illiterate and completely insane.

California is cancer itself.

Does it seem that Cali is at war with Starbux? I mean last week they were threatening to take away SB’s trademark green Frappuccino straws.

Living in California under commie control may be hazardous to your health as well..

[adorno]

Because coffee contains a trace amount of a chemical known as acrylamide

I'm sure that if they examine water very carefully, they'll find trace amounts of some toxic material or other, and they could do the same with air.

Water and air are going to have to be declared toxic and then regulated and taxed to death.

Food can be considered dangerous too, being as how consuming any of it can lead to overweight and obesity in many people. So, food will have to be considered dangerous too, and regulated and taxed at much higher levels than present.

IOW, there is no limit to the stupidity of the liberal left. Time to outlaw them. They are more dangerous to Americans and America than any substance that might kill us.

What sort of risk is Kalifornia? Hint: it’s a long list.

[zeugma]

I’d say that California has jumped the shark, but they did that years ago. One of the interesting repercussions of trying to eliminate coffee consumption is that there are places in the world where coffee is essentially the only actual cash crop. I have a Rwanda bean that is a part of my normal purchase when I make my quarterly green coffee bean buys. What the hell else does Rwanda, Ethiopia, Congo, and many other third-world shitholes have to export?
