    Ah yes, cancer, that thing that is only caused by food, and definitely not caused by genetic or environmental factors!

      It surely helps if one avoids chunking down junk food.

      Of course pollution doesn’t help.

      That is why it is better to live on the outskirts and go into the big city only for work and leisure.

        You sound like you’re espousing the same kind of woo as Steve Jobs did.

        “Oh, even though I have the super treatable form of pancreatic cancer and not the super deadly kind, I’m sure eating fruits and nuts and avoiding red meat is just as good as chemo and radiation therapy and OH NO MY APPLE HAS NOW FALLEN OFF THE TREE!”

        (Wait, are we even federated with the afterlife?)

          I don’t have tumors or cancers because I medically check myself once in a while, but I still avoid eating junk food or overly processed food except seldom to avoid increasing my own risk of contracting ailments or maladies.

          When there is party like a barbecue, I am very voracious on the meat because I eat it sparingly (but I eat the type of meat you purchase almost 0 KM away from your own trusted family-led butcher shop)

          It’s called common sense.
