[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I occasionally eat fast food, maybe once or twice a month. If it’s McDs or BK or Taco Bell, I feel really gross afterwards. But if it’s CFA I don’t. Why is that? Maybe I should only eat CFA from now on and skip the others.

P.S. This is a genuine question, not marketing for CFA[/quote]

I feel "contaminated" after eating BK, KFC, and to a lesser extent McDs and Wendy's which is why I only eat at those places if I am in a rush, really hungry, and need to eat right quick.   But like you, I never feel gross with CFA.   
I believe it has to do with the ketchup/mayonnaise mixture they put on burgers, and for KFC it's the reused grease to fry the chicken.   I don't eat at Tanko Hell so I don't know about them.

I once brought a BK burger home and I took one bite but had to spit it out.  The ketchup/mayo mess on the burger was rancid.   I threw the burger out in the back yard and even the flies would not touch it which made me think, "If flies won't eat it, what kind of toxic foul substance are they using?"  I do my very best to avoid eating at these places.  [b]It may very well explain why cancer seems to be more common these days than in the 1800s.

Nope. the main reason why cancer is more prevalent is that life expectancy is longer, and most cancers (not all, but most) increase in incidence with age.

We all die of something. If it's not malnutrition, infection, injury, or something like that, it's going to be more and more likely to be cancer as you get older and older.

By far the biggest risk factor for most cancers is simply getting older. More than three-quarters of all people diagnosed with cancer in the UK are 60 and over.

And this is because cancer is a disease of our genes – the bits of DNA code that hold the instructions for all of the microscopic machinery inside our cells. Over time, mistakes accumulate in this code – scientists can now see them stamped in cancer’s DNA. And it’s these mistakes that can kick start a cell’s journey towards becoming cancerous.

The longer we live, the more time we have for errors to build up. And so, as time passes, our risk of developing cancer goes up, as we accumulate more of these faults in our genes.[/quote][/quote]
