Barbecued food can cause cancer!




-If you eat meat that's chargrilled or burnt, it could cause stomach, prancreatic, colon and breast cancer because it creates high levels of carcinogenic compounds called HCA's (heterocyclic amine). Some of these compounds are deposited onto the food by the smoke and flames of the grill. However, this has only been tested on animals, not humans, but it's always good to take some extra precaution when grilling.
