What's the cancer rate among those who work at the site?
All their workers should be dead or battling cancer, right?
I knew an ole baw who worked there and lived to 85.

cancer risk 50x national average
Roughly...
1 in 2 ppl get cancer in the US.
1 in 4 ppl die from cancer.
How TF can a risk be 50 times higher??

I’ve never been to Reserve but don’t imagine there’s a grocery store within 20 minutes that you could shop at that is worth a sheet. They said, everyone is eating the same processed, chemical laced, nasty arse inflammatory cancer causing garbage which they sell. Call it every small town in the great US of A. Nothing newsworthy. They just needed a news story and that one was attention grabbing. I also imagine they breathing in the fumes from that plant aren’t flattening any curves.

Seriously screw these idiots trying to act like the industry is only to blame. Sure there might be a small percent of something that industry might be responsible for. The great cajun and soul food along with the cigarette/cigar smoking alcoholics sure as hell screw your body much worse than that.
