"Clean" Deli Meats are still a group 1 carcinogen?

A while ago the World Health Org listed all deli meats as class 1 carcinogens, the same as asbestos & tobacco. I learned from a video that this was because of the added Nitrates (mutates DNA in your stomach), not exactly because of the "meat". So I stopped getting meat w/ added nitrates.

I just learned however that celery powder has natural nitrates in them, which still cause the same chemical reactions. what can we even eat now? This really upsets me.

Oreo owner Mondelez invests in Israeli startup developing lab grown cocoa

I saw a recent video then read up about how the owner of Toblerone, Cadbury& Oreo just invested 4.5 million into a Israeli startup Celleste bio working on lab grown cocoa, to get rid of unethical farming, and cheapen processes.

Why is this not being talked about more? Also a Israeli company developing such?!
It's said to be identical to real cocoa and is to hit stores by 2027 after FDA approval.

Healthy fast food still isn't healthy

i've seen some recent posts about chikfila and chipotle, one being a chickfila mac and cheese lasted 2 years in a hot truck without molding (103 ingredients btw) and chipotle having phthalates (linked to infertility) in their food.

After seeing these things a bit ago, I wonder why are people trusting these fast food places? Are people thinking places like chipotle are healthy when they have high amounts of seed oils like rice bran oil?

The starbucks ceo came out and said their new 9$ dollar drink is an “affordable premium experience.” starbucks used to be cheap no? he says their atmosphere is so good people just go for it. who is doing that??

also their coffee is being made cheaper and cheaper with slave labor (modern day slave labor) from south america.

inflation is not hitting them, they are greedy. go to your local coffee shop.

I saw this news post about chipotle having phthalates in their food, the study seems to be valid.

Not only this but they use seed oils (heated on their grill as well). Chipotle always seemed healthy to me, but is it rlly that bad?
