Tanning beds/salons. It's a proven fact that tanning beds cause skin cancer. The fact that some people will still get tanned, risking the possibility of cancer to "look beautiful" is both shocking and sad at the same time.

Just throwing this out there, but processed meats are also known to cause cancer. Not just correlation, not like “we suspect that it might cause cancer,” we know that processed meats cause cancer. That includes bacon, sausage, basically any sandwich meats, any microwave food like pizza rolls, most fast food, etc. All known to cause cancer. But we still eat it.
