You're right, its a suboptimal example.

But I can conclude that its not so dangerous as to lead to imminent death / disability within 30 years. So how "unsafe" is eating processed meat anyway?

The article makes like you're doomed to develop colon cancer if you mom ever fed you a single bite of hamburger helper as a kid. Obviously, that's a ridiculous conclusion.
