ham

A European study found that consuming one extra slice of ham per day is associated with a 9% higher risk of stomach cancer. The study links an additional serving of processed meat daily to increased cancer risk.

Major supermarkets are now stocking bacon and ham that doesn't contain cancer-causing nitrates, raising questions about their safety for consumption. The move is seen as a positive step towards healthier food options. However, concerns about the overall safety of these products still linger.
