No. Having your body's chemistry turn acidic causes cancer. The Nobel prize for medicine was given decades ago for this little tid bit of information.

Yes and no. The carbon that is produced when a food is burnt is a carcinogen but since it doesn't taste good anyway you are unlikely to eat enough to cause cancer. Food cooked over charcoal also has carbon but again you'd have to eat alot to get cancer.

I hope not because it's lots of food that I won't eat if it's not burnt

Has something to do with nitrates in foods. Cooking barbecued food with fat splattering down and smoking back up. Stuff like hamburger helper or Kraft dinner with all the chemicals. Anything with saturated fats.
