to clarify a point though.

i buy around 300 grams of salami/month, usually a little less. i get them cut very, very thin and slice them up in the spaghetti; i'll take 8 slices, microwave them to kill the listeria, and then cut them up and sprinkle them over it. but, i only eat half of the plate, then put it back for the next day. if each slice is 1-2 grams in weight, that's going to be around 4-8 grams a day, on average.

the studies put down 50 g a day as the point where a (questionable) risk develops, which i couldn't even fathom. with amounts that high, the problem is fundamentally over-eating, and you're going to get stuff like diabetes and heart disease simply from being overweight - which is the actual cause of virtually everything.
