As the article says farther down, it's technically true "if you’re comparing the seasonally-adjusted change from June 2022 to July 2022 for 'urban consumers.' The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) was unchanged in July on a seasonally adjusted basis. However, the more broadly analyzed and reported inflation statistic is the year-to-year (July 2022 vs. July 2021) increase in inflation for “all items” – which rose 8.5% - as BLS reports in the next sentence"

What stood out for me on this chart is the Flour and prepared flour mixes at 22.7. It’s going to explode in about 60 days.
