Huh, I thought it was common knowledge given the news headlines about it a few years ago. The World Health Organization considers it a Group 1 carcinogen.
Here is an extract, because I think you are not totally truthful, or at least not saying it all (I understand it as: don’t eat smoked meat every day):
consumption of processed meat is “carcinogenic to humans (Group I ),” and that consumption of red meat is “probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A).” The report differentiates the two meats as follows:
Processed meat – meat that has been transformed through salting, curing, fermentation, smoking, or other processes to enhance flavor or improve preservation
Red meat – unprocessed mammalian muscle meat such as beef, veal, pork, lamb, mutton, horse and goat meat
You’re perceived as an alarmist not because youre vegan but because the risk is so low. Tell people to not drink or drive slower. To eat healthy. There are so many things.
It’s weird how quick they tend to accuse vegans and vegetarians of bias, when the former positions objectively have so much evidence and benefits in their favor, and require overcoming generations of traditions and overwhelming societal pressure.
One of those accusations are an admission things I guess.

And which part was untruthful?
