There's a time and a place for science, and this isn't it. We'd have rather remained ignorant to this one.

The findings come after scientists from 10 nations reviewed all attainable evidence.

Although bacon has hit us hardest, it's worth remembering that burgers and sausages are also a threat to our health. Eating this bacon cheeseburger is probably considered to be living life on the edge.

The NHS Choices website says:

"Evidence shows that there is probably a link between eating red and processed meat and the risk of bowel cancer. People who eat a lot of these meats are at higher risk of bowel cancer than those who eat small amounts."

It's all about moderation. Red meat is still a good source of protein and provides vitamins and minerals such as iron and zinc.

All this thinking about bacon just makes you wantbacon.
