BBQ might cause cancer:(

[XTW]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A compound formed when meat is charred at high temperatures -- as in barbecue --

Charring meat at high temps is not BBQ. Grilling is the process of charring at high temps.

Smoking is cooking at low temps for a long period.

BBQ is a device used to cook.

It's the tumor residue that give it that "special" flavor... TC

P.S.--Life's too short to not eat BBQ and drink small batch!

The only thing that has me scratching my head is why this is being reported as a new discovery. The charred flesh/cancer link was reported well over a decade ago (maybe 2). Everybody got all excited about it then, then they forgot about it. Maybe in the interim researchers decided that charred flesh cured cancer and they're changin thier minds again. Maybe the researchers at Johns Hopkins forgot that they'd already discovered this. Maybe they were't making thier quota of research breakthroughs, so decided to re-publish a paper from the 1980s, hoping nobody would remember.

You should all be thankful you dont live in France

Fact: There is no barbeque in France.

Fact: The French do not deserve barbeque.

Fact: The French prefer to eat deep-fried cow testicles and boiled snails.

Fact: If elected President, Hillary Clinton will push for a law allowing deep-fried cow testicles to be served in American restaraunts and public schools.

Fact: Gulfstream Academy is the leading supplier of barbeque-cooked crew meals to major airlines. However, they would like to provide deep-fried cow testicles and boiled snails in crew meals if Hillary Clinton is elected President.

Fact: Gulfstream Academy was recently acquired by a French corporation.

I will eat, drink and do nothing that I like, thereby guaranteeing a long and miserable life.

Apparently everything causes cancer these days, I agree with the sentiment that life is too short to go around avoiding the good things in life because some scientist found cancer in a rats behind.

Well, as I sit down tomorrow night at the Williamson Bros. joint in Marietta, GA, I will say to the server; "may I please have the biggest plate of cancer you can possibly find in the back?".

I had a thought the other day. I know, that is a dangerous thing. You can't eat beef because of Mad Cow disease. You can't eat chicken, turkey, duck or any other fowl because of bird flu. You cant eat pork because of fat and cholesterol. You can't eat fish because of pesticide runoff and mercury. You cant eat vegetables because of pesticides. You can't drink water because of pesticide runoff, mercury, and chlorine. You can't eat food suppliments and take vitamins because the only they do is give you expensive urine. You can't drink distilled water because it comes in plastic bottles, they give off PCB's and dioxins. The only thing that is safe to do is sit in the corner and wait to die. But watch out for terrorists and meteorites.

Somebody hand me a drink and a cigar.

I heard some scientist says taking a S H I T causes cancer. Guess everyone has to hold it now
