[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1247549, member: 41816"] Ah yes. I remember this nonsense. It was way back in 2011. Firstly, the study was quoted with the usual journalistic 'interpretation'. Secondly, the journalists who promoted this drivel managed to get confused between 'red meat' and 'processed meat'. Processed meat can also be white pink and grey, but apparently they only saw red. Thirdly, while meat contains [B][I]some[/I][/B] fat, it is actually [B][I]meat[/I][/B] (protein), not butter, lard or dripping - or it would be called butter, lard, or dripping. So what is it about this dreadful bacon stuff that is being claimed to be the Source of All Evil? The fat? The protein? The nitrates, flavours and preservative used in the processing? Or the side orders of white toast, hash browns, cheap sausages, brown sauce, jam and OJ? I know where my money lies. - and did you read the comments on that Daily Fail article? [B][I]Hilarious[/I][/B]! [/QUOTE]
