      There are so many studies that stare things “may” or “could” cause cancer but it’s not proven. My wife saw an article that said eating chicken could cause cancer.

      Like, how much more natural can you get?

        There’s chicken, and then there’s the weird, chlorine-cleaned, antibiotic-pumped meat that the US calls ‘chicken’.

        If you’re purchasing chicken from the grocery store, there’s a lot about it that is unnatural. Modern animal ag is very unnatural.

        I do not know specifically what would cause cancer, but bioaccumulation of environmental toxins (e.g. pesticides) seems a likely culprit. But this is only speculation on my part.
