McDonald's Sued For Cancer Chicken, Trib Names Bad Trends

CHAINSVILLE—McDonald's and Burger King were both were accused in a lawsuit of selling chicken known to contain a cancer-causing chemical. The class-action suit was filed on behalf of everyone who ate the grilled chicken from October 2006 to the present day, but they're not trying to outlaw it: "We’re not looking to have them stop selling the product ... The product is a legal though dangerous product that should be sold with a warning, like a chainsaw.” [Bloomberg]
