Seemingly posh crisps could cause cause cancer, a study by
government-backed scientists has found, as they contain high levels of
acrylamide, a known carcinogen.
The
Telegraph reports that tests conducted by Fera Science on behalf of campaign group
Changing Markets, found t he highest levels of the chemical were found
in Tyrells "Sweet Potato Lightly Salted" crisps, which contained more
than three times the recommended amount, according to European food
standards.
According to EU benchmarks crisps should not contain more
than 750 milligrams per kilogram of acrylamide. Despite this Tyrells
"Sweet Potato Lightly Salted" crisps contain 2486 milligrams per
kilogram.
The research also found Morrisons' "Cheese and Onion Popped
Potato Snacks" and Aldi's premium brand "Passions Barbeque Flavour
Popped Potato Chips" contained twice as much acrylamide than the
recommended level.
Given we are leaving the EU, we can safely ignore their health warnings.
Failing that, if you are worried, simply resort to eating cheap crisps.
