Eating frech fries can cause cancer?

I only eat french fries i make and I fry them in good sunflower oil. I don´t save oil to use it again either. I never deep fry in another oil, never use it more than once (I use a small pot to do it so I don´t waste so much oil) and never use lard or any animal fat. I buy the whole potatos, peel them and slice them and never buy them frozen. I didn´t know about health problems but it is cheaper and healthier that way.

According to Swedish researchers, frying potatoes or other starchy foods triggers the formation of an organic molecule called acrylamide, which has been shown to cause cancer in lab rats. I guess moderation is the key to healthy eating.

The sky is blue. 2+2=4 Rain is wet. Captain Obvious, away!

yes it is ! it is about oil better make your own french fries !

first of all, all of you are idiots, no offense. how on earth does oil cause cancer? it doesnt. oil is unhealthy because it is fattening, not cancerous. now, oil can cause caner when it is burned, actually, anything that is burned can give you caner, not the oil itself. also, if it is frozen, that doesnt make a difference, when french fries are frozen, how does that make them cancerous? wow. go get smart.

yeah, i heard so too. the frozen also use preservative which is not good for our health. it is better for us to eat the steam or cook the potatoes in oven

Hello there! Really! Aw, gosh, french fries is one of my favorite food! Anyways, thanks for the heads up! Cheers!

I think so too...they say that it is cooked in animal fat which is really very unhealthy. It has a high content of cholesterol so it isn't good for people who has a heart problems. I don't think it could harm us if we get to eat once in a while but for people who eats french fries almost everyday, that could lead to health problem/s.
