You may have seen an article online making the rounds, claiming that butchers are cutting cancer from meat being served to unsuspecting consumers, the article goes something like this:

Meat eaters might want to reconsider their diet choices. A butcher has shocked the world by saying that when coming across cancer in pork, he and many other butchers just cut it out, and continue to sell to customers.

The fact is, this is not true, we aren’t even sure where the image of the “cancer meat” originated from.
