"This year, as Americans make ready to fire up millions of backyard grills, there's a new scientific wrinkle: according to an exhaustive analysis of international research on diet and cancer, it's time to start looking for an alternative to the humble hot dog...So one interpretation of their data suggests in three days of 100 grams or one day of 10.5 ounces of eating processed meats, your chance of getting colorectal cancer is 126 percent.
...according to the AICR report's analysis of the available evidence, every 3.5 ounces (100 grams) of processed meat eaten per day increases risk for colorectal cancer by 42 percent. Because of this, AICR now advises avoiding hot dogs - along with sausages, bacon, ham, cold cuts and other processed meats."
Bummer in the bum.
Maybe you should eat the unprocessed wiener of the bull, hog, etc.
When barbecuing becomes Fear Factor.
