Carcinogens

Apologies to my regular readers (whom I'm sure I can count on one hand) as I have not been actively blogging the last week or so. In any case, the barren streak wont continue, I just haven't been in the mood. Anyway, it's time for quick piece of classic cynicism.

Recently a large number of food products have been called off the shelves as they contain the food dye known as Sudan 1. Now would be a good time to make a joke about how these food products are causing mass genocide in a large North African country, but I wont.
Apparently, Sudan 1 causes cancer; well, that's the theory anyway. Of course so does bloody everything else. Every day there is another report about something we do that gives us cancer. Soon, we'll be told that everything gives us cancer, which is probably true. Pretty much everyone dies of cancer nowadays, the only people who dont, are people that wind up dying of something else first.
I'll take my chances with the Worcestershire sauce.

Ok it's 5.30 now so I'm going, I'm sure I could rant on about this for longer, but not today. I will post more tomorrow and even though Champions League is on tonight, I will try and post about something else as well as football.

Tips for tonight: Milan 1 : 0 Man U - Milan Qualify
Chelsea 4 : 2 Barcelona - Chelsea Qualify

Oh and message to David Campese: Shut up, nobody gives a shit about what you have to say anymore, has-been.
