Sometimes it's just dumb. Nitrides are no more hazardous than maillard reaction products like acrylamide, yet we're sabotaging our pastrami because of it. Totally irrational.

Having a culture where people consider organic Pop tarts to be somehow healthy is a problem. It's superstition and leads nowhere good.
