Very interesting and certainly alarming. I didn’t know about it.
To be honest I always try to make a good selection in what I’m going to eat and a VERY good selection when occasionally drinking occurs therefore, your comment is appreciated.
I think I better change to FRANZISKANER wheat-beer or keep drinking only wine until be sure about unwanted consequences. Oh, here lies the asbestos thing (which I didn’t know either) .. but I guess that method is already disappeared/prohibited.
Since the word cancer gives me the creeps (I do know the word so… it will happen!) this weekend would be the “Blended low fat yogurt cult”.

BTW, did you publish your research?
