A big one mentioned at the start of the article is pasteurized milk. I'll add another one that the article skipped - water. Processing and distribution of clean water has been a major boon throughout the world. You can see a regression away from it in the "raw water" movement and the associated diseases that raw water fans sometimes contend with.

Slicing bread is "processing" in the strawman sense, and so is putting it into a plastic bag.
