Marinating Meat In Alcohol May Cut Cancer Risk

I read an article at BBC News that marinating meat in alcohol prior to cooking may cut down on cancer-causing agents produced during the cooking process. And this includes both frying and grilling. I seldom eat meat, but i dont mind marinating them in red wine before cooking. It gives the meat a nice aroma and also acts as a mild tenderizer too, lol. The remainder of the red wine can be enjoyed during mealtime as well. Win-win, hoh. It’s the last day of 2008. Be merry and dont overeat!!!
