I think it is very disingenuous to have a headline "Which processed foods are better than natural?" and then talk about food that is cooked, pasteurized, frozen or fermented.
Sure it is "processed" in a sense, but most of these things hardly fit the modern definition of what most people picture "processed foods". I mean at that point, if I cut my apples with a knife, they are in a way "processed" and better than the natural apple since I can avoid eating the bad parts without biting into them.
- duxup 5y agoI'm not sure what people picture as processed foods even makes sense at times... I think there's a lot of unknown about what our foods even are, what 'natural' means and so on.
- jka 5y agoHow could/should you visualize the way that a particular food product has been prepared in order to represent this? (it's going to be hard in the context of a blog post or article title, because you need to pick a single word or two there; but I think that for individual food products, there could be methods to illustrate fairly clearly what types of processing were involved for people who would like to inspect the details)
