Salted and curing
In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer of the World Health Organization classified processed meat, that is, meat that has undergone salting, curing, fermenting, and/or smoking, as “carcinogenic to humans”.[35][36][37]

Today I kind of surprised myself because I ate some of the wheat generic Life cereal knock off that Kroger sells with oat flour and yellow food coloring and I had milk with it but I went to work and had acid reflux when I was in the bathroom. Maybe ate too much or too much of the wrong thing or not enough sleep.
I ended up eating my uncured pepperoni stick and it was okay but then felt like a heart attack was gonna happen. So lose lose. Wanted to go buy more snacks but decided to not go through with it. Basically had 3 small boxes of yogurt raisins from Sunmaid. Had also some KrogerĀ chicken poppers, a Turkey sausage patty and Brioche hamburger bun.
Phones
Still looking at upcoming phones.
Am a bit surprised at how close I am to breaking one of my psychological barriers in my finances. Still a ways to go but making good progress. Hopefully stocks will do well. I keep hearing how Zuckerberg and Buffet are frugal but sometimes want a new phone and laptop. We will see how that goes. Need to keep saving and working at it.
