groan... science is not an exact science http://www.sorcerers.net/cgi-bin/ult...=002331#000001 (i.e. possibly a load of bollocks).

here's a better article on the subject which has references at the bottom: http://www.nature.com/nsu/021001/021001-1.html

is that story new in the states? it was reported in the UK a few months ago.

Wow, that is old stuff. There was a big ruckus about it this spring, McDonalds even offered yoghurt instead of fries to their happy meals

Sir Belisarius · Tue, 1st Oct '02, 6:47pm

It was new to me...Plus, it's on the internet...So it HAS to be true!!

We learned all this in school haven't you?

Jack Funk · Tue, 1st Oct '02, 7:23pm

I was born with this knowledge, weren't you?

Whoa! Better stop eating baked and fried foods!
Eat only raw meat...wait, no you could get E.coli!
Ok, only fresh fruit...no too much sugar!
Stick to salads and raw veggies...Wait, no, the pesticides!
Eat nothing but boiled eggs...no, they are loaded with choresterol!
OK, eat nothing but garahm crackers...oh no those are baked!

OK, EAT NOTHING BUT VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS and boiled water. Unless boiling is bad for you too!

I'm so boney, I need food! I'll eat only what I grow.... that's a lot of work!

I agree with Nutrimat, c'mon if someone wants it, he can find something bad in everything, not only food, also they can find something good in everything. The truth is that scientists are only guessing.
