I only drink soda like once a week, and even then half the time it's just ginger ale. I eat healthy, I work out every day, watch my caloric intake, but yet I've been a rudba dub dub big ass tub all my life :smith:
[QUOTE=MIPS;28098627]EVERYTHING contains cancer. Just pick which causes less cancer and deal with it.[/QUOTE] Fuck, you could just get cancer from living. Even if you managed to live a (impossible) carcinogen free lifestyle. You'd be pretty unlucky, but it's possible.
Pig Belly (stuff used for bacon) is a bigger cancer causer then most shit. People still buy it though.
"Caramel Coloring in Cola Could Cause Cancer" That is one hell of an alliteration.
That's why I drink Crystal Pepsi. [img]http://themixtapemonster.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/crystal-pepsi.jpg?w=500&h=390[/img]
[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;28099305]Pig Belly (stuff used for bacon) is a bigger cancer causer then most shit. People still buy it though.[/QUOTE] If you're eating a lot of bacon, cancer is the least of your worries.
[QUOTE=dogmachines;28099515]If you're eating a lot of bacon, cancer is the least of your worries.[/QUOTE] Bacon is an excellent source of bacon, so it's clearly good for you.
So does it "cause" cancer like everything else, or does it actually do something to you?
[QUOTE=Suzune;28098013]Clear Coke looks weird and doesn't fit the taste. I doubt it'll be banned though.[/QUOTE] Clear coke would be awesome.
Well if its really dangerous it should be banned. If not then leave it be.
[QUOTE=SgtCr4zyAlt;28097891]I drink probably a gallon of soda a day, not much of a regular exerciser, and been under a lot of stressful events.

Even if it causes cancer, it probably won't get banned.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;28098220]Yes it's only a nanny state that bans companies from using cancer-causing ingredients[/QUOTE] cigarettes
[QUOTE=Explosions;28100666]cigarettes[/QUOTE] You mean the things with giant "YOU'RE GOING TO GET CANCER" warnings on them?
Further studies, in order to test severity, would be nice.
[QUOTE=Mudbone;28099620]Well if its really dangerous it should be banned. If not then leave it be.[/QUOTE] Water is toxic. We should ban it.
[QUOTE=Explosions;28100666]cigarettes[/QUOTE] It's pretty common knowledge that cigarettes are bad for you. Some caramel coloring that most people have never heard of, let alone know is in their Coke, is a different thing. Not that it matters since it takes so much to do any harm.
If they ban Soda i will go on a rampage. I have a caffeine addiction.

I support this ban, for one reason. Clear Dr. Pepper and Clear Coca-Cola :buddy:
[QUOTE=Explosions;28100738]It's pretty common knowledge that pop is bad for you.[/QUOTE] But not as bad as inhaling smoke. It's not like drinking a bottle of coke each day is asking for lung cancer.

Please no.

[QUOTE=Kalibos;28101044]lmao[/QUOTE] didn't you know that fat is the only thing that is bad for you and that if you are really skinny you are healthy??
Wasn't the same food coloring challenged before? If I remember correctly, the study used in the previous case was thrown out because the method of research made pure water seem like a carcinogen.
[QUOTE=breakyourfac;28098205]US becomes a nanny state[/QUOTE] Read Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" and you'll see why we need regulation in the food industry. It shows very well what happens when corporations are left to their own accord.
