Chips

For potato chips to be crispy, they need to be deep-fried in temperatures above 248 degrees Fahrenheit. This causes them to create a substance called acrylamide, which is a well-known carcinogen found in cigarettes.

According to a 2008 study published in the International Journal of Cancer, dietary acrylamide can put you at a higher risk of ovarian, prostate, and breast cancers. They can even create chaos for your digestive tract. Potato chips are also high in fats and calories.

You can try baked apple or banana chips which are a much healthier option than regular potato chips.

While it can be disheartening knowing that some of your favorite foods could be cancer causing, we suggest slowly substituting if you think going cold-turkey is too extreme for you.
