You have been contacted by the local radio station. Their viewers have expressed concern with processed meats that contain nitrite and as such think the meat industry is adding a known poison (toxin). Informing them nitrite creates a desirable cured flavor and a nice pink color doesn’t put their mind at ease. Your task is to prepare a response to help the public understand the facts and put their mind at ease about the use of nitrite relative to toxicity. Provide your answer in a list format of key points you want to make (one row at a time).
