Do you think that if you drink a cold beverage during or after meals causes cancer because it solidifies the food in your stomach?

False. No threat of cancer from that.
People have been eating and drinking cold beverages with their meals for a very long time. It doesn't solidify the food in your stomach either.

No. Cold beverages aren't cold enough to solidify food, especially not inside your body (which is pretty warm).
Also, if there were true, it wouldn't necessarily cause cancer.

No by the time the drink gets to your stomach it has warmed up and the acids in your stomach have already turned the food into mushy stuff that won't solidify. So not to worry about that one.

Well I have a family friend, and whenever we have dinner at his house, his parents wont allow us to have water during dinner or 30 min. after. I am not sure if it was because of cancer, but it had something to do with better digestion

okay i am not a doctor nor molecular anaylyst, but i do not think it really matters cuz that is what the the digestive acid is for in the stomach is for to break it down to reasonable solidification.....also it wont be process till it is at your body temprature anyways (if my science is correct) so i think eating bad fat is a bad idea period.....but does it matter about drinking cold fluid with it makes no difference.

No.
Do you think your stomach will explode if you eat pop rocks and then drink soda? I love watching how some people get scared for my life when I prove them wrong.:)

I haven't heard that theory before and it sounds highly unlikely. Many things have been "linked" to cancer. Most of them completely outrageous.

Yes, if it is cold enough. You need to drink liquid nitrogen to get the full effect.

This sounds as though someone were trying to start a modern urban myth, and not a very good one, at that.
