1. The World Health Organization reported from a convention that processed and red meats slightly increase the risk of cancer.
2. The environmental groups responded by advocating for warning labels on red meat, much to the chagrin of the meat industry.
3. The report placed processed meat into the "Group 1" category, meaning "sufficient evidence" has been found that it can in fact cause cancer. Although no guidelines for consumption have been shared, the chairman of disease prevention at Stanford said that that the risk was in much less magnitude compared to alcohol and smoking.
4. The cartoon illustrates the usage of this report. The only people to really abide by the warnings from this would be the pedants, who follow minor regulations too seriously.
5. Bish's opinion seems to say that whatever your choice, it may affect you, but it's better than being scared of everything.
6. I don't eat much processed meat, and it would vary every week, but I can surely say that this has no effect of mu choice for a meal when I want it.
