The first food that comes to mind are hot dogs. Years ago I read a quote from Dr. Samuel Epstein, a renowned author & oncologist, that has stuck in my mind- ' if you feed your children 3-5 hot dogs per week you are increasing their rate of getting cancer by 300%.' It is the sodium nitrate that is the worst offender here so I would go on to add that cheerios & indeed most manufactured meats are best avoided.
Recently, I cringed at a television add where a pizza company was offering a new product- pizza's with hot dogs in the crust. These 'industrial novelities' are not fit for human consumption.
