[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1712806, member: 41816"] 67 paragraph article, and it turns out that the actual figure she quotes is mentioned twice, once near the beginning, and once near the end. No mention of relative or absolute risk, presumably because that would either confuse the poor reader, or demonstrate that the melodrama is unnecessary. Accompanied by dramatic words like ‘chilling’ and that 8,800 people killed by processed meats (not just bacon) is MORE than are killed on British roads each year!!! The rest of the wordage is a general history of food scares and some info on processed meats. What a load of journalistic padded nonsense. From my own perspective, the fact that 8000 odd people are killed on British roads in a year does not stop me being a passenger or driver on those roads. Does it stop any of you? I shall continue to enjoy bacon, while not eating it so often that I cease to enjoy it, alongside a variety of other foods. [/QUOTE]
