First they make us fat and now they kill us



Damn those killer fries to hell! First they make us a nation of fat butts and now they're killing us! Researchers are now saying that

french fries can cause breast cancer
.

This was first talked about in a 2002 study. When Swedish researchers claimed that acrylamide, well known as a probable cancer-causing agent was found to be present in Mc Donald’s and Burger King fries. Acrylamide is formed in very high concentrations when carbohydrate-rich foods such as rice, potatoes and cereals are fried or baked -- but is not present when they are boiled. Well that shoots down my idea of indulging in fried corn flakes with a side of fries.
