The tragic reality, of course, is that 95 percent of the food that most Americans eat is processed — and processed food is where all this trans fat lies — and the cyclic aldehydes, and the
acrylamide, and the genetically engineered ingredients, and the pesticides... So, if you want to protect your health, particularly your heart, brain, and gut, you need to
avoid as many processed foods (including most restaurant food) as much as possible, and start cooking at home, using fresh, whole, unadulterated ingredients.
So sure, we can use our concern about the probable carcinogen,
acrylamide as yet another reason to
avoid potato chips and French fries, but until we know more I wouldn't cut out healthful foods like whole grain bread.
