From the linked article above:
The most commonly eaten ultra-processed foods in the UK are:
Industrialised bread (11 per cent)
Pre-packaged meals (7.7 per cent)
Breakfast cereals (4.4 per cent)
Sausages and other reconstituted meat products (3.8 per cent)
- crazygringo 5y agoNo. I'm just using "processed" as a shorthand for "ultra-processed". All of the "ultra-processed" examples you give are exactly what I'm talking about -- industrialized bread and breakfast cereals are made of precisely the flour, sugar and oil I'm referring to.
- Angostura 5y agoJust as long as you are clear that the terms have precise meanings which you are using incorrectly
- crazygringo 5y agoJust as long as you are clear that nothing I said was incorrect, even though I was using both terms.
- Angostura 5y agoWell its incorrect to the extent that the post is specifically about issues concerning things like pre-made meals an sausages, and your rebuttal is that these concerns don't effect things like flour or sugar as ingredients. It's rather like me saying gun control is an issue and you pointing out that iron ore seldom kills anyone.
