      Disagree, we know alcohol is dangerous so it’s not a surprise. Looking for things that are believed to be safe and normal but actually aren’t

      i.e. teflon

        At least something where some new danger might be discovered in further study. We have enough studies to show alcohol destroys basically every aspect of the body in some way.

        I think people are reading this prompt in two different ways. Some people are reading it as “what will be something we discover new dangers of” and others are reading it as “what unhealthy thing might he less socially acceptable in the future”

      People off most cultures drink, not just westerners. See Japan.

      Also people have drank for thousands of years and I’ve not seen any studies showing there’s more drinking now not that that hypothetical increased drinking has increased cancer rate.

      Yes it’s obviously bad and causes cancer.
