Guys... what in the world is wrong with the American diet, or lifestyle, or *something*? We just heard of the FOURTH case of advanced, metastatic pancreatic cancer in a friend here... all of them are men in their mid-50's, and none of them will live much longer.
I mean, our circle of friends and aquaintences is SMALL... we're sort of semi-hermits up here on our farm, and to have this many people we know dying of what used to be a VERY rare disease is worrisome.
I'd love to know what's going on! Is it HFCS, or maybe artificial sweeteners? Each of these men had different lifestyles... a couple were small farmers (not big crop farms which use a ton of pesticides) one ran a small beef farm and the local butcher shop, one worked in town.
This is getting pretty weird.
