Here's the real head scratcher: In the years since that first scare, researchers have studied acrylamide in humans, and they haven't confirmed those initial cancer concerns. Most of the human studies published so far have failed to find any links between dietary acrylamide and various types of cancers. Wilson says the one study that did find a connection between blood levels of acrylamide and breast cancer was flawed because it didn't control for smoking - which is probably one of the main routes of acrylamide exposure for smokers, according to the American Cancer Society. Still, even though the human research hasn't pinpointed much of a cancer risk from eating acrylamide, the National Toxicology Program lists it as "Reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen," because of those animal studies.
