Hello!

it all depends on the person's body. everyone has cancer cells, but they don't trigger unless a certain substance causes it.

for some people, a specific seasoning could cause cancer.

for other people, a chemical could cause it.

some things effect a larger range of people than other things.

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
