Sugar, especially in drinks
White flour
Cured meats and burnt BBQ
Leading food carcinogens out there

Probably the artificial sweeteners moreso than anything else although sugar is bad for u in general obviously
there was always this notion that giving growing cells "extra energy" might boost this...never seemed to fully connect thought...

In many summer camps I see they brings kids to the movies sometimes once a week, & parents are expected to pay for the movie & a trio.
I see parents buying their kids a MASSIVE sugary drink all the time at the cinema.
Bad parenting imo.
I myself have not had a soft drink in maybe a decade now.
Man i'm so happy that i'm me & the way i am.

Why arent more studies being done like decades ago

Artificial sweeteners are a little overblown IMO.
Not that I'm saying they're good for you, but they're not really worse than sugar. The main issue with artificial sweeteners isn't that they cause cancer (that link is weak at best) but that they mess up your hormones and make you hungrier.
Good to know. Maybe im outdated on my artificial sweetener information. I try to use raw sugar whenever i can for coffee etc

black coffee breh
I eat and drink super healthy but its actually my wife that got me into black coffee
had it 3 times and then-after never looked back.
avoid sugar at all costs
There was this guy at my work, he was putting loads of sugar into his coffee
I told him that's not healthy, that's more sugar than coffee.
He got offended it seemed, but played it off politely and just said ya I know
I never got that, why people feel offended if tell them to take care of their health,makes no sense
Yeah, that basically came from a study in the 70s that linked Sweet N Low with bladder cancer in rats. But it ended up being related to a mechanism that doesn't really apply to humans, and when they studied people who consumed them they didn't find a link - Artificial Sweeteners and Cancer
So you probably won't get cancer, but you probably shouldn't consume them a lot anyway. Basically when you eat something sweet but your body doesn't get the calories it expects, it fukks up your brain chemistry and you just end up hungrier than you would be otherwise, which in the long term would tend to cause weight gain.
Why artificial sweeteners can increase appetite
So diet soda probably won't give you cancer, but it might make you fat by causing you to eat more.
Just remembered how @David_TheMan used to say that soft drinks and fast food weren't unhealthy, all fake news he said. 
Had a chick I knew, basically my Christian mentor when I was young, die of stomach cancer when she was 34. She was one of those foodies, ate way too much rich stuff. From diagnosis to death was less than four months. Left behind two little girls like 3 and 4.
Yeah, I'm walking a breh through colon cancer now and I'm convinced his huge meat intake is the driving reason. Doctor told him the same thing. He's stage 4 now, had the surgery and is on his 5th round of chemotherapy. He's 41 and has a three-month old, only been married like 18 months.

There have been. That thing I said about sugar, white flour, and cured meats comes from a huge cancer meta study that's at least 15 years old, and the studies within it include stiff from the 1980s and 1990s. This been known.

Most of those studies are either BS, guilty of pulling a Chicken Little or the result of an uninformed journalist who misinterprets what the actual study is saying.
The say stuff like eating XYZ increases your risk of getting ABC-type cancer by 20% when in fact the chance of getting cancer for those who don't eat XYZ is 2%. If you eat an above average amount of XYZ, your cancer risk is now 2.4% (20% increase) instead of 2%. Scientists have a term for this. It's called statistical insignificance.
The largest factor to you getting most forms of cancer are errors in DNA replication. The darker hue below for Environmental are HN (head and neck), E (esophageal) and L (lung) and due to smoking. The M (melanoma) is due to sun overexposure. The U (prostate) needs more data.
The major cause for colorectal cancer, that you described about your friend, is primarily in the Replicative column. Although there's a slight increase on the Environmental side for stomach cancer, North America and Africa (diets that you'd consider extremely rich) have the lowest incidents worldwide.
