Geee Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 The Hill Coffee shops in California may soon be required to post notices warning customers that drinking the beverage could come with a cancer risk. CNN reported Wednesday that a number of companies that sell coffee, most recently 7-Eleven, have settled in a lawsuit first brought in 2010 arguing that businesses have failed to notify customers of the presence of a chemical in coffee that can possibly lead to cancer. That chemical, acrylamide, is created when coffee beans are roasted, and "scientists have not found good ways to reduce acrylamide formation in coffee," according to the American Cancer Society.
