The World Health Organization says processed meats such as bacon and sausage can cause cancer. They say that this falls into Group 1 which is a carcinogenic to humans.  If you don't know what that means, that means that it's in the same group as cigarettes.

That is absolutely crazy. The WHO says that red meat is not all involved, though. The biggest thing is that if you eat bacon or sausage regularly you up your risk of getting bowel cancer significantly everyday. This is a huge bummer.  Bacon makes most everyone very happy. Especially me. If you want to read the full article and see the facts, they're right here on BuzzFeed. I think the worst part is that I had bacon on my burger earlier and didn't fully enjoy it now. Such a bummer.
