Food isn't sold burnt from store shelves. Of course people may 'toast' it to unsafe levels. That's an educational issue.

Untrue, you can buy burnt bread at most grocery stores. Go to the bakery, look at the ends. Many will have burnt tips.
Also: I've never bought this, but I just found this premade product, which is sold in my grocery store and is known to the state of California to cause cancer.

A good example is the cancer causing aflatoxin on peanuts.

You could be enjoying some all natural peanuts and be exposing yourself to a highly carcinogenic byproduct of a fungus that grows on them.
Hell, people were doing that for millennia until some scientists actually discovered it.
Acrylamide is in all baked bread. It's formed during high temperature cooking - like baking.
Toasting just increases the amount present.
I sure can get it in a restaurant.
