I'm not sure what kind of crack Asian people have been smoking, but there's a huge buzz in Southeast Asian news about the discovery of a GLOBALLY used food additive causing cancer in humans.
The news sources claim that this "chemical" is used GLOBALLY to prevent separation of liquids. Soft drinks, BUBBLE TEA?, you name it, its in it. Not just in China, I mean GLOBALLY.
I scoured the internet for evidence of such BS and found nothing. My parents and Chinese members of my church are going bonkers, telling everyone to not drink bubble tea and other Asian stuff. But this stupidity goes even further.
UPDATE: I found ONE source in the last hour http://www.cnkeyword.info/food-additives-found-to-cause-cancer-in-taiwan-against-male-fertility/
Anyone know wtf are these ppl freaking out over?
