> The Washington-based Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) filed suit in California Thursday "to compel the restaurants to warn unsuspecting consumers".

The Barney-fication of Western Civilization is now complete.

Barney: "WHOAH-HO! Hey Kids! It's NICE to WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE YOU EAT! And remember: Eat TOFU 'coz your parents are trying to POISON you with BBQ Chicken!"

Darla: "Barney, is it true that Chicken can Kill us?"

Barney: "Chicken can cause Cancer! But why not instead have some NICE CRUNCHY VEGETABLES and SQUISHY TOFU!"

Freddie: "It's Nice to Share TOFU! That's what friends are for!"

All (sing):

"Wash, wash, WASH YOUR HANDS!"
"Eat, eat, EAT TOFU!"
"Chicken ISN'T GOOD FOR YOU"
"Eat lots of Veg'tables and Raw Tofu!"

Darla: "Gee, Barney! I'm sure glad I have a purple dinosaur Friend like you! Otherwise I'd eat chicken, and that's not good for me!"

All: (sing)

"I love you"
"You love me"
"Chicken isn't good for me..."
"With a Big Fat Hug, and a serving of Tofu..."
"Chicken... isn't... good... for... you!"

"Goodbye, Barney!"

At the drive through window:

No lady you misunderstood me. I didn't order a cancerous chicken. I said I wanted TWO MORE chickens.

A US doctors' group has sued seven leading fast-food chains including McDonald's and Burger King over their use of a "dangerous carcinogenic" in grilled chicken.

BS. HCA's are formed naturally by cooking meat at high temperature. But this article would have you believe that The Evil Fast Food Restaurants are 'us[ing]' HCA additives.

Obviously, the longer the meat cooks, the more HCA's that are formed. Ordering a steak well-done is 'supersizing' your HCA portion.

They won't be satisfied until everyone has to live on carrots and beans. I happen to like "high fat" fried chicken, and it's my F'n life, and I'm not gonna live forever anyway. I should be able to eat whatever I please, thank you very much.

"Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine" is a commie group. Any time you see their name attatched to anything take it with a 30 pound block of salt.

One of the first scares I remember was the ALAR in apples scare, then nitrosamines in bacon. Doctors can't seem to make up their minds about caffiene in coffee - that one bounced back an forth more times than a ten minute tennis volley. Most of these researchers have to find something to bleat about to justify their phoney-balonie jobs.

This crap would never amount to a hill of beans if it weren't for the circulation seeking sensationalist MSM.

Eat what you want when you want. Puttin' on weight - don't eat as much.

Now I feel an urge coming on for a huge piece of beef char-broiled on an 1,100 degree grill 'til black on the outside and drippin' red on the inside. Yum! Gimmee some o' them fried onions and garlic to go with it; all washed down by a good beer - and don't forget the nitrosamines. Yes siree Bob, it adds to the flavor.

Doctors kill more people than war, crime and nature combined.

Ban medicine!

As with any carcinogen, the danger is in the dose. I suppose this group wants to ban water as it contains small doses of natural carcinogens....

He, the smoke gnatzies used this same tactic and were celebrated by many FReepers. I hope they are celebrating the food police's efforts.

Sounds like another PETA ploy. Soon only Soylent Green will be legal. (Not eating anything at all will kill you faster than eating grilled chicken.)

But possibly carcinogenic to humans is not defined as a classification according to the description of their evaluation found here

Good observation. Based on that, I'd love to see a countersuit by the chains against this wacko group of supposed "doctors" for the bad publicity they're trying to generate.

IIRC, only about 20% of PCRM members have a doctor's license. The PCRM is nothing more than a radical vegan group associated with fellow radical vegan group PETA.

The PCRM is the SAME FASCIST BASTARDS who declared "Giving a child meat or milk is child abuse". They truly are nazis...nah, make that New World Order SCUM-SUCKING BASTARDS!

They and PETA truly are the Vegan Taliban. PETA's Ingrid Newkirk is Osama Bingrid Newkirk, and PCRM's Neal Barnard is Adolf Barnard.
