You know what? Screw'em all. Most of these cancer studies are exercises in statistical masturbation. I'm frankly sick of it. Anything to excess is lethal to some extent or another. This nanny statist alarmism and litiginous witch hunting is the ultimate result of people untrained to take responsibility for their own actions. Its the food's fault their sick, its the servers fault they ate too much of it.
Let'em die miserable. We'll be less miserable when they're gone.

Are you certain you could be less miserable? BIG SMILEY HERE.
But seriously, I agree. Moderation, good judgement, physical activity.
If someone told me I would have a 30% chance of living a couple extra years, on average, if I gave up bacon, all other yummy processed meats like jerkey and all those glorious varieites of sausages, coffee, an occasional cigar, ever going near a big city, the great outrdoors, all the polluted indoors, and everything else they keep telling us not to do - I too would say ain't worth it. Gimme a beer and a knockworst, with a cigar and espresso for dessert.
I'll take 70 some years of enjoying all of life's little sins over 80 some years of living like a monk. Maybe ask me again when I'm 70 some though. LITTLE SMILEY HERE.
