CANcer


What the hell are we going to eat now?

Is everything on our dining tables safe to eat or drink? Weeks and months ago we had this issue about China-made toys which contained lead. Now we have the melamine scare which is brought about by China again. For Buddha’s sake! Poor China… they have been famous in just a blink of an eye but as an eye-sore, a negative image for them as I must say. What is it like to live in China if what they produce, toys or food it may be are unsafe to consume or use? Of course, we have to ask people from China themselves in order to see and hear their side. Are you guys alright there? I will not be surprised if few months from now, there will be another news that another product can cause Cancer. Duhhh

From the very rare and common illnesses, we have this very famous CANCER today. Again, everything that we consume is more or less linked to CANCER very often. From the very word itself, Cancer.. for me it means.. “We are NOT CANCER FREE, but we CAN be CERtified with it. Why? (Well, let us not be biased that China itself or China-made products are cancerous, let us not discriminate them, after all we are all victims of our reality).


From the very bottle of water, sodas that we drink and chunky chips that we munch in school or work place…

From the French fries, big burgers and chickens that we savour with our discount coupons in fast food chains…

From the appetizers, taste enhancers, and artificial spices that we deposit in the food that we cook in our kitchens…

From the cosmetics, conditioners and shampoos that can contain sodium laureth sulphate to make people feel and look better…


From all these froms can we still say that we are Cancer Free? Nahhhh It’s all around us!
What option do we have? Go back to basics? Natural and organic food? Sure! Why not?? But the question is, can we do it? Our generation got used to everything we call “instant” and “fast”, because we are so preoccupied with a lot of stuffs and activities. People got no more time to plant in their backyards (but I guess there are no backyards nowadays for those living in urban cities) and people gets so lethargic to cook in their own kitchens.

Besides that we are into the so-called unhealthy lifestyle, we also have this unhelpful attitude to be better and healthy. Who doesn’t want to eat what everybody else eat, right? While the rest is enjoying, why deprive ourselves eat the luscious and yummy snacks that our food services offer?


After all what’s said and done, yes we have to be careful of what we eat if we want to live longer. If we can’t avoid or completely stop eating unhealthy foods, then MINIMIZE them.. with capital M.I.N.I.M.I.Z.E
