Jules Thin Crust pizza closed recently at the Danville Livery shopping center. That leaves their Oakland location as the only other West Coast spot with the rest on the East Coast.
As I was checking out the granola bar selection at Lafayette Trader Joe’s I did a double take as I noticed a cancer warning about the Peanut Butter Chewy Coated & Drizzled Granola Bars:
This product can expose you to furfuryl alcohol, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer.
Well, you can imagine which granola bar box I chose, Chocolate Chip of course! Furfuryl alcohol? Sounds particularly dangerous to me. In addition to cancer I imagine growing fur in strange places if I eat one too many of these granola bars.
Note: Check out this warning about seaweed from a few years ago.
