Few months ago, I found out that there are some foods, mind you those are our all-time favorites, that cause high blood pressure or cancer, if eaten regularly.
First one is the lover’s favorite and maybe your pick, too- french fries! Yup, believe it or not it’s one of the top contributors of hypertension because it’s being fried in high heat. Foods that are being cooked that way said to be unsafe but what can we do? Fries are one of the best!
I am in denial about this part. Donuts, too, can cause high blood. Oh no, those are really my favorite- Dunkin Donuts. But then again, they are fried in high heat like fries. Reminds me not to eat much often. I will try but I’m not that sure. Donuts are pure heaven!
We all love hot dog. But because it is processed meat and undergoes many procedures and contains much of sodium chloride (NaCl) AKA salt, it can cause cancer if eaten everyday. I guess I have to moderate my hot dog intake or I will regret it.
But can we really survive without having a dose of that foods? Guess not. Now I can truly say, forbidden things are delicious (FOR FOOD!).
Few questions.
- What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
- What are your comfort foods?
- Do you know how to cook?
TRF I love watching cooking shows on TV but I barely know how to cook hardcore cuisines. I know how to cook rice, to fry (but please not fish!) and some basic Filipino dishes.
well, atleast you know how to cook.
Compared to me, I’m totally clueless. Boohoo!
But I know how to cook rice w/o the use of rice cooker.
fries + mcfloat = fave! *yummy*
Hmmmm… i honestly don’t know any specific foods which cause diseases etc. I mean i’m not aware and I simply don’t care. I LOVE EATING so whatever to diseases. hahaha
comfort food? chocolate, footlong, burger, siomai, pansit, isaw, chicken etc.
yeah.. i somehow know how to cool. =p
Aww, thanks soo much!
1. What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
Hmm, not too sure exactly.
2. What are your comfort foods?
Chocolate, burgers, chips…mmm
3. Do you know how to cook?
Yeah, I guess so (:
hahas i love those food mentioned in your blog! their my favorites especially fries and donuts! they’re soo good!! ahahs i really don’t care cus i don’t eat it so often. but i wishd i did. after your post, maybe not. :\
i haven’t tried snow leopard yet, but once it gets here i would be able to! yeah, i prefer a mac over windows ever since i switched over to a mac. despite not being able to play computer games, it’s pretty good because can concentrate on homework and studying and stuff.
Aah, that doesn’t surprise me since they’re not healthy to begin with. Anything that is deep fried will be bad for you for several reasons. It’s too bad that fried things are so tasty!
1. I’ve heard of others, but I don’t remember what.
2. BBQ
3. Yeps, my boyfriend and I like to cook together.
Of course I was serious. I would not lie about something like that. I was severely depressed and it took me three years to pick myself up again.
My dad has high blood pressure and a high cholesterol. I have a high cholesterol myself. I don’t like fries, donuts or hot dogs very much but there are other sweets and junk food that I do like to eat.
1. What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
Pretty much anything with fat and sugar.
2. What are your comfort foods?
I don’t really have any. I don’t look to food for comfort.
3. Do you know how to cook?
A bit. Not too well.
What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
Barbecue meat can cause cancer. And chips, because of the frying.
What are your comfort foods?
I don’t eat for comfort. My comfort things are usually a bit more destructive than that. Cigarettes, alcohol and I’ve even conscidered doing drugs when I’ve been really down. Thank god for my friend who stopped me. :S
Do you know how to cook?
Well since I live alone I have to cook if I want to eat every day. I’m not good at it though.
i know – i saw him look at what i was wearing and i just thought, oh my god, pleasepleaseplaseplaseple be nice. afterwards, i apologised and said that i wasn’t expecting anything and if i knew, i’d be decked out to the nines with a tailored suit and all that (not really LOL.)
oh god. i hate fatty food but it’s so addictive and you don’t really realize you’re eating something bad until you’ve gained like 3948 pounds or you’re diagnosed with something horrible. good thing for me is i hate hot dogs because they’re made up of GUNK from different animals and that’s kind of like .. a dumpster food lol.
1. What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
chicken gizzards – they’re high in cholesterol but apparently they’re yummy. ick.
2. What are your comfort foods?
ice cream. caramel. starbucks >:
3. Do you know how to cook?
yes! proudly so
JUNK FOOD. Chichirya. Hahaha. Canned goods :\ Ahhh the stuff I love eating! And yeah sadly the ones you mentioned are some of the food I enjoy eating too
I suddenly craved for Mcdonald’s. TWISTER FRIES, PLEASE. Rar.
And sadly, I don’t know how to cook
Man, it sucks that all the foods we love are the ones that are bad for us. ~_~;;
I love microwavable foods, but I’m sure those are filled with preservatives and stuff that’s supposed to be bad for you ~___~;;
Yes, it was very weird indeed. It wasn’t like their washrooms were absolutely gorgeous and clean.. cause they were like any other washroom.. very similar to the ones here in Canada and it’s free here so I don’t get why it can’t be the same there. I’m sure they can find some better, more convenient and reasonable places to make money.
This blog was no surprise to me. I’ve heard way too much talk pretty much everywhere about how these foods can lead to cancer and all sorts of health problems. Not that shocking anymore. I’m glad that I didn’t eat the hot dog that I had in my blog.. wouldn’t wanna get all the NaCl in my system and then develop cancer, ahh . x_x
1. What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases? Umm hamburgers?
2. What are your comfort foods? Sadly, most of the ones you mentioned.. fail. but PASTA too. I love it.. haha.
3. Do you know how to cook? Um only small things, nothing hardcore yet. xD
Oh no, donuts!
Potato chips (and other chips) can get also bad if you eat too much. And that just sucks :O
— What are your comfort foods? Cream-O. Oh wow..
— Do you know how to cook? No.
Good thing I don’t eat french fries that much. And even better that I absolutely ABHOR hot dogs! I haven’t even tasted one since I was like 5 or 6 and I don’t plan on it any time soon. And now that you mention that they can cause cancer, I definitely wont be going anywhere near one. The smell, taste, look. Everything about them screams BLERGH!!
* What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
Umm…. none!
* What are your comfort foods?
Cookies, Twinkies, and Oranges [see, I'm not COMPLETELY unheathly.]

I loveeeeeeee cooking so much! I’m actually baking cookies later this evening.
Mmmhm, fries. Nom nom nom. I actually love them. Nothing will put me off of them – not even hugh blood pressure!
Urgh don’t mention it
School = early mornings = tired Becca = moody Becca.
Haha no. I’m doing work experience in a school so I help the kids out..etc. Everyone has to do it in England before they leave high school
Basically I just work somewhere for two weeks to get the feel of a working environment. I want to work with kids when I’m older so I picked to work at a primary school <3
I'm still craving fries now.
Hey
First off, thanks for visiting my site and leaving me a comment
I think it was your first visit, so welcome to my site
I hope to see you around more often.
Oh yeah.. I made my experiences with such siteowners.. they suck – big times! But most of the time they will return your comment, because just like you said they want to talk to their visitors!
Oh wow.. glad that I only eat those stuff like once a month? If even.. I love fries and stuff – but I don’t want to eat them too often. So lucky me
But I really think people should eat less of those things in general. It’s bad for our bodies.. but at the same time soooo damn delicious!
Wow. I don’t really eat any of them to be honest, but I have doughnuts every now and then.
Because I don’t like Frankfurters.
I hate hot dogs.

* Do you know how to cook? yeah my mum’s a cook so shes always giving me lessons hehe
Hot dogs and donuts I’ve had neither in over a year, french fries I do eat occasionally. I don’t think there’s such thing as a forbidden food; people eat, inasmuch as disease, because they’re bored, one who’s truly bored truly eats a lot – perhaps boredom should be forbidden!
* What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases? — Honestly, I don’t know any specifics, but i’d think anything with high sugar & sodium would be dangerous to health.
*What are your comfort foods? — I don’t really have comfort foods, when I’m upset, I don’t normally eat.
* Do you know how to cook? I sure can! I started preparing dinner for my family when I was 12 years old and I’ve learned a lot since then.
Donuts! Yum!
Fastfoods has a lot of fat so it’s really not advisable for people who already have health problems. I also heard seafoods can cause a lot of heart ailments, I’m not sure if there are other severe diseases caused by them.
My comfort foods are chocolates, or anything that’s sweet.
I know how to cook, but just simple home made stuff. =D
it can’t be.. (T^T) i REALLY love eating those. especially french fries! especially when dipped in an vanilla ice cream.
unfortunately i have hypertension…working on it lately. and anything processed is not good for your health. i love french fries though D< but i found a great alternative…sweet potato fries! Hehehe! brings back memories…aristocrat's sweet potato fries yum! as long as you dont excess your sodium intake…you take care of your heart.
* What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases? – as long as they are processed foods, fatty meats and stuff
* What are your comfort foods? – chocolates! crab rangoon <3
* Do you know how to cook? – yes i do! I love watching food network and i learned a lot from that~ but i prefer baking <333
Well, they’re just bad for the health if eaten regularly. Too much of anything is bad, this applies not just to fries or donuts or hotdogs. I eat a lot of unhealthy food, but good thing I don’t eat them on a daily basis.
Hmm, now I’m curious about highly heated foods being bad for the health. Most foods are highly heated, right?
I only know about burnt food being carcinogenic. And poorly cooked meat may bring diseases due to unkilled bacteria.
My comfort foods: chocolates and junk foods.
I don’t really know how to cook. I can only fry, and that isn’t even considered as cooking.
Barbecue.. Ugh I think every food if you had too much can cause damage.
Barbecue.. Ugh I think every food if you had too much can cause damage.

i don’t really know how to cook.. lucky me pancit canton is the only specialty.. LMAO!
I actually avoid these type of foods because it will ruin my diet. hahaha. I just hate fried foods lately, especially if it’s considered junk as well. I’m more into healthy foods such as veggies. ~ sorry naman
Hmm, I don’t know any particular food that might cause severe diseases.
As they say, what’s forbidden is good! I’m aware that these food cause certain illnesses… but! THEY’RE TOO GOOD. Hahaha.
What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases? A LOT. Hahaha. Anything high in fat, and friend generally.
What are your comfort foods? Fries, ice cream, chocolate, cookies.
Do you know how to cook? Technically. I know how to follow a recipe.
These foods are fattening, too! But they are delicious and delicious just so delicious.
* What other foods that you know can cause severe diseases?
Burgers -High calorie!
* What are your comfort foods?
Chocolate! Ice cream! Any sweets. Yuuum.
* Do you know how to cook?

I think if you eat too much of any food you are putting your health at risk, cause if you become overweight you are automatically increasing health risks like high blood pressure. So I guess you just got to be careful.
