[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1712968, member: 41816"] Here is an alternative perspective, just to show how maleable and selective this information is: It is an accessible and entertaining talk by Georgia Edes on the WHO report, explaining the sources they used, and the amount of evidence drawn on. [MEDIA=youtube]xDgzgDSInt0[/MEDIA] From a personal point of view, i don’t actually eat much bacon. We buy maybe a pack a month between the two of us. And I dislike the preservative ‘tang’ that comes with most processed meats. Occasional chorizo crisps (home crisped). Rarely a slice a ham or tongue. My main objection is to the media circus and selective info that finds its way to the front pages. The one ‘processed meat’ we seem to eat regularly is minced beef or lamb. I process it at home by adding a little sea salt and shaping it into meatballs or burger patties and cooking them myself. Of course, I wouldn’t object if the media spread their favours a little wider to other processed foods. I mean, no one really believes that multi-seed crackers baked in veg oil and sprinkled with powdered chemical flavours are good for us, do they? Or fruit flavoured concentrates that have no fruit content at all? Or ‘meat free, bacon flavour’ soya nuggets to sprinkle on our healthy salads? [/QUOTE]
