I think it is already known that procesead meats cause cancer, for the ones that don't know here is a link to WHO cancer causing substances: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_...arcinogens
It is on Wikipedia list because the official one is bigger.
Given that there is evidence that this products cause cancer you don't see a lot of fuss about this. Aside from vegan activists I don't see people bringing this subject up. Keep in mind that they are in the same group as cigarettes, although they are not as dangerous as vegan activist want you to believe.
Instead you see a lot of fuss about sugar, Singapore declared a war on diabetes, my country is taking into consideration a tax on sugar, but no one is speaking about a tax on salami.
From what we know processed meats are worthy to be taxed in the same way that cigarettes are taxed but nobody in the political sphere is proposing it. Why do you think that the problem is ignored? Do you think that the meat industry has a stronger lobby that the sugar industry?
I'm not saying that that the impact on suger is not negative on our health but I think that we should tackle processed meats first. Both of them can be taxed simultaneously and I think we should at least consider it.
