The first line of the Guardian's article is:

"Bacon, ham and sausages rank alongside cigarettes as a major cause of cancer, the World Health Organisation has said, placing cured and processed meats in the same category as asbestos, alcohol, arsenic and tobacco."

Is that correct? If the WHO did indeed put these all into the same category, then I'm not sure this article is at fault. Should the author of this post instead take issue with how the WHO categorized these things?
