St. Patrick's Day leads to Cancer?

So apparently St. Patrick's Day can lead to cancer? (see below) So does Tuna, but I'm an alcoholic, so I don't care.)


FD&C Green No. 3 has shown to produce tumors and mutations, according to its Wikipedia article. Does this mean that celebrators of St. Patrick's Day will have tumors? Meh, probably not any more than usual, given that everything from keeping your cell phone in your pocket to sticking your head in a microwave can give you cancer these days. Should we be worried about putting too much green food coloring into our St. Patrick's day beer or apple juice? Denoting your bowel movement's color should be your only real issue here, as Green No. 3 is not absorbed by the intestines very well.
Five things that are more dangerous than possible tumor producing, mutation causing green food dye:

1. The tainted green beer your "date" gave you.
2. Playing rock, paper, scissors with real props to see who will be the designated driver home.
3. Being in the car with said "designated driver."
4. Trying to find your way home from the alley "by your place."
5. Spending 6 seasons trying to get off the Island.
