Sure it might cause cancer but they don't have to stop using it for at least a couple more years.

It's been banned in Europe for 30 years. Can't let cancer get in the way of profits.

Food companies can't redesign all their recipes in one day

I mean 2 years is a lot of time for people to get cancer, but I see your point that companies should be allowed to give people cancer for 2 years so it doesn't hurt their profits.

Either it's bad enough to ban and should be immediately banned, or it isn't really that bad and shouldn't be banned.

Either it's perfect, or it's not worth improving.

It's bad, it's been known from the 90es, it's banned in Europe for decades. It's a shame it took impending RFK to make those fuckers inconvenience the food industry.
