Bacon And Sausage Not Good For You

The Daily Mail says researchers in France have discovered that eating cured meats like bacon and sausage may increase the risk of Type 2 Diabetes by over 50%. The team studied 100,000 people before concluding that the preservatives in certain meats can have major negative impacts on health. More studies need to be performed to confirm the findings. Lead author Dr. Bernard Srour says, "These results provide a new piece of evidence in the context of current discussions regarding the need for a reduction of nitrite additives' use in processed meats by the food industry.

Dear Fonseca,

My son was taking an exam the other day when he looked over and saw a girl struggling to get answers on her smartwatch. My son didn't say anything to the teacher. The teacher grades on a curve. The girl and her mother are not that smart to begin with. Part of me wants to tell the teacher. The other part wants to let the cheating slide because I know there is a good chance the girl scored poorly so the curve will be lower and my son will score better. What would you do if you were me? Is it wrong if I stay silent?
