In 2024, 12-month inflation starts at 3.1% and is 2.7% last month (peak at 3.5% and bottom at 2.4%). You can't round that number in anyway to be "~2%". It is at least "~3%"

My Parmesan cheese is now $4, up from $3.50, price changed the day after thanksgiving.

I don't think inflation is low right now. They're working overtime to make it look low.
