Maybe it's old news to some....but the ruling is there is a carcinogenic element in potatoes..... Ahhhhh..... remember the potato thread <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
well it seems the government knows more than it's telling...... McDonalds, Mcain,Miss Vickies, Sun Chips, and even a few organic brands are topping the list...... is nothing sacred anymore?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

soon they'll be saying eating is bad for you, and introduce some pill.....only to discover after 23yrs........ Oooops, sorry!

i mean how long have we been eating spuds anyway.....let's ask the irish! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

won't stop me from eating potatos. mine are usually un-fried, though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Indeedy, although it tastes good...

yes it does..... yes, it does.

Might stop me from microwaving my "baked" potato though. Think all that heat makes a difference?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />

who knows? maybe theres a difference between heating it up or just making all its little atoms and things dance.

yes actually they did say something about the ppm tripling at a certain heat level and have consequently asked places like harvey's mcpuke and wendy's to lower the temp on their fryers to lower the count! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
i'm not sure if it's in the article somewhere, but it was on the tube last night! so i haven't forgotten.......much.......yet!
but it's fading fast!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />

And breathing is bad for you and eating meat is bad for you and walking is bad for you and being born is bad for you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Oh well. I guess I'll just go and have fun while I can! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

As for the french fries:

It is a bit true... but with a big information missing. It's about a year since they brought out this second bit:

The stuff that is carciogenic in the french fries and other such stuff is removed from the body by natural means <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> So you would have to eat enough french fries at once to make a difference, for the concentration to be high enough you would have to eat about 1500 kilos of french fries in about 2 days. And if you manage to do that, you have enough other problems <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Is theire anything they aren't good at? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

Well, as someone pionted out, they are always coming out with new studies...this is bad, this is now good, OH WAIT it is bad again...
I can be quite rediculous...

And, well, i am one of those Irish...and i love potatoes...so i won't stop eating them any time soon.

I think as long as you live your life relatively well, and try to saty as close to earth as it came (did that make sence...i mean natural stuff) then you should be okay. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I agree, IMHO you can have any type of food you want in moderation, infact i belive that goes for everything. I think thats an old Roman philosophy, I could be wrong though.

Eat drink and be Merry! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Nope at that we are also good. Especially eating and drinking <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

distribute and rule??? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

Ack! The song is..........
Damn.....

Ok, where's my Iron Maiden Mp3? I wanted to listen to it anway.

going outside can kill you, there are more traffic-cuasulties than deaths by eating fries, so we should never go outside ...

Strawberries can kill you, you can choke on them, don't eat them...
