Superior Court Judge Elihu Berle rules California law requires coffee companies to carry a cancer warning label because of a chemical produced in roasting.: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/30/busin...rning.html
The chemical in question is acrylamide. Guess what else it's in (short list): https://www.healwithfood.org/list/foods-...lamide.php
Why did the judge single out coffee?
There is an overwhelming body of scientific evidence which supports the health benefits of drinking coffee daily, including a reduced risk of some cancers. I don’t think acrylamide is well studied in humans, and I’m all for further investigation, but this is definitely an over reach. All it’s going to do is scare people and confuse them further.
Brb...I need a cup of coffee. 😝
