It’s anti Italian discrimination
I wonder what would be the reaction here in Eastern Europe. Cold cuts are a staple.
Shouldn’t be controversial, the WHO classifies processed meat as a known carcinogen with about the same level of certainty that cigarettes or plutonium can cause cancer.

This goes nicely with the “Share of overweight people in EU” -post that was pointing out that we are among the fattest people in the EU.
Instead of throwing tantrum like a toddler when not told he is not allowed to eat candy every day, people here should really pay attention to health recommendations.
First, it was the wine lobby, which opposed recommendations on the harmfulness of alcohol.
Now, it’s the producers of ultra-processed meats, which is known to be far from ideal in terms of health.
If something is harmful, it is what it is—end of story. If your sales drop, tough luck or switch business. Or produce cold cuts without nitrites, nitrates, and all the other additives.
*The tobacco industry reacts to the new health recommendations, “according to our research, there are no health risks in smoking”*

While cold cuts (chark) in general aren’t very healthy due to added nitrates, processing and chemicals, the fact of the matter is that they don’t really differentiate in europe as they are blaming all meats also as a bad thing when fresh meat is the healthiest and most nutritious food on the planet.
my 98 year old grandma whose diet is meat and processed meat based is laughing at this.
my great-grandma who died at 104 would also laugh while eating sausages & eggs every morning.
joking aside, people do need to pay more attention these days in their diet.
And I don’t mean only about processed meat that usually hits the headlines but also about processed vegan foods that are full of the same crap and it goes under the radar
edit: not sure why you people downvote, and there are only 2 reason
1. you are jealous of my grandma and great-grandma , because you cant do what you want and makes you happy or
2. vegans getting upset because they cant handle that their processed vegan food is also bad, and that is hilarious.
in either case this is fun
