Bacon, or is it the nitreates in the bacon? I bet is the nitrates.

But the government won’t emphasize that.

I bet is the nitrates.

The FDA changed the curing procedures of wet cured so that bacon does not form nitrosamines even when stupidly way overcooked.

Back in 1978.

This is what the liberal press does.. They put the initial story out there, and never tell the rest of the story. And good people remain duped for decades.

this is not new news. nitrites have been a known carcinogen since at least the 1970’s.

the question is, why is it there?
