Now the interfering busybody do-gooder twats are targeting toast: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-38680622
They should be held down and force fed kebabs while someone blows cigarette smoke in their faces.

The roasting of coffee beans? Lethal surely in the light of what we now know about toast.

particularly at industrial levels, where dark (burnt) roast is used to make the beans go furtherā¦
The stuff about acrylamides has been known and talked about for years. I donāt understand why this is hitting the news today.

I think itās degrees - I donāt like anything burnt or in the case of coffee beans, too dark. Apparently āgolden brownā is ok for toast - most things in factā¦
Distraction from our utterly mendacious PM perhaps?
It used to be mostly burnt meat they talked about - today itās starchy foods
Just ours?
So that something more important than roasties and how dark to have our toast gets buried in the furore of āHow dare they tell me how to have my toast/roastiesā¦ā.
Probably.
I always knew a steak tartare was the healthy option when compared to all those people ordering well done (ruined) steaksā¦

Thereās an ongoing study https://www.food.gov.uk/science/research/chemical-safety-research/pc-research/fs102075. Itās just released an interim report. Thatāll be because the curent research money is going to run out at the end of 2018. To ensure program continuity they need to have the next tranche in place by, say, the end of this year. It takes a year to get the money approved. So about now they need to create some fuss so that the decision-makers are primed to recognise the importance of this work.
At least, thatās my guess.
