All processed foods contribute to cancer. But when there's not much else to eat... Well, eh. Look at the ingredients on the ketchup bottle. How many additives do you see?

These days, everything gives you ******* cancer. +_+

It does, man. The government puts carcinogens in our food so they won't have to pay us social security. It's a conspiracy man!

Yes you can. Maybe not just ketchup but ketchup is mostly corn syrup which is proven to be fuel for cancer; hence one of the many reasons corn syrup is illegal in most countries. The more you ingest the more likely cancer in you is. This fml should read. Today, my ignorance caused me to make a fool of myself over the internet to thousands of people. FML.

Nobody HAS to explain to other people why things are right or wrong. If your mom doesn't want to eat ketchup because she thinks it'll give her cancer, then she doesn't have to eat ketchup. It's really annoying to me how many people have the FML "Today, I had to explain to so-and-so that something stupid is really stupid to think." Come on people, just let them be idiots. It's not your job to make them smarter... eventually they'll figure out. If they don't, that's THEIR problem.

To be fair, everything causes cancer according to the tabloid press...

To much ketchup is bad for you because of all the salt in it. So your blood cells can implode from to much salt and the lack of water.

How do you know it doesn't?

The state of California would probably be on her side, they think everything causes cancer.

Don't forget about the high amount of sodium that is in ketchup!
