Processed foods make up 50 percent of the current
American diet. Though they are inexpensive and
convenient, especially when you are in a hurry and just
don't have time to make
dinner from scratch, processed

hydroxytoluene (BHT) and Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA),
two chemical additives that sound very scary and which
are known to cause cancer in humans.
