Roasting and frying starchy foods could increase the risk of cancer, according to the British Food Standards Agency.

The FSA has issued a public warning over the risks of acrylamide - a chemical compound that forms in some foods when they are cooked at high temperatures (above 120C).

A new campaign tells people how they can cut their risk, including opting for a gold colour - rather than darker brown - when frying, roasting, baking, grilling or toasting.

Acrylamide is found in high levels in a range of foods including breakfast cereals (not porridge), chips, potato products (such as waffles or potato shapes), biscuits, crackers, crispbread and crisps.

It is also found in coffee, cooked pizza bases, black olives and cereal-based baby foods.

Root vegetables including potatoes, sweet potatoes, beetroot, turnip, swede and parsnips can all carry high levels of the compound once they have been roasted or fried until darker brown or crispy. As well as high temperatures, long cooking times can increase levels of acrylamide even further.

Foods such as skinny fries and crisps appear to have the highest levels.

Albino roasties for me from now on.

What if there is actual burning toast in the room?

Does toast cause strokes as well as cancer?

Should we ban toast just to make sure?

BAN BREAD NOW!

So basically just don't burn your food. I thought that's what most people try to achieve for every meal?

More fake news. Sad!

It is a crazy leftie remoaner conspiracy, trying to make me turn away from my british burned toast in favour of some eu sanctioned golden bread product! I will not stand for it!

What goes on burnt toast doesn't stay on burnt toast.
It tries to kill you instead.

Pah, the snowflakes can't even handle a bit of burnt toast now! How would they have survived back in the good old days when we toasted our bread over a real fire like REAL MEN.

I like my toast well done (but not burnt) and I'm willing to take my chances.

I don't smoke and very rarely drink so a little bit of carbonised bread is hardly going to kill me.

Does this also apply to crumpets?

Asking for a friend.

I don't care for burnt foods, but some things benefit from being a bit crispy - roast potatoes, etc.

Are you planning an elaborate murder?

Yes.

I mean no.

:shifty:

Who roasts their vegetables until they're literally brown?

I always like my bread products a bit on the dark side. And I eat a lot of toast and pizzas. Might as well dig my grave now.

I wonder if a meat feast pizza is now more dangerous to your health than a packet of 20 Bensons.

If there was ever a time we needed him, it surely must be now.
