What is ACRLAMIDE??


Question: IT SAYS ITS KNOWN TO CAUSE CANCER IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
Answers: I think you meant Acrylamide. Check out source below.

Acrylamide is a chemical created in foods when starches and other carbohydrates are overheated (over 120øC or 250øF) during cooking. There is concern that acrylamide may be a carcinogen (cause cancer). Acrylamide is used in papermaking, ore processing, permanent-press fabrics, and dye manufacture. Acrylamide is also polymerized to form polyacrylamides which are used as water-soluble stabilizers, for example, in waste water treatment and in gel electrophoresis.
