McChicken McCancer with a side of Heart Attack

Eat chicken and get cancer.

Yup, that’s right, chicken products from fast food restaraunts have been added to the long list of things that can cause cancer. As the list seems to grow almost daily, it’s no wonder we don’t all have cancer, or starve.

A US doctors group has sued seven major fast food chains like McDonalds and Burger King for their use of dangerous carcinogens in grilled chicken products, how comforting.

The group is hoping to compel fast food restaraunts into better warning their customers of the dangers involved in eating their grilled chicken products. For some reason, I don’t see that happening. The group also said that every sample of grilled chicken products taken from the seven major fast food restaraunts tested positive for a dangerous carinogen known as PhIP.

I’ve never been a fan of grilled chicken stuff from fast food restaraunts myself, so I don’t have anything to worry about on that front. I’d personally be more worried about the absurd amount of calories, fats, saturated fats and trans fats found in almost all fried chicken.

Why does the stuff that tastes oh so yummy always have to be the stuff most likely to kill you? It’s like being taunted.
