Diversion but OK. Processed is anything that requires prep work outside of eating it off a tree or killing a animal and eating it raw.
So I answered your question. Can you answer mine?
- throwup238 3y agoWhat do you think “highly processed” is? I find the process used to make spam objectionable. You know, as in processed foods? And ham, which is itself a processed ingredient. It’s fully cured and cooked pork. I don’t understand how that’s not highly processed. The only level below that is ultraprocessed foods like cheetohs and dorritos.
- tekla 3y agoHam is a processed pork product that is cured using salt or smoking. I find it strange that you say people should prepare home meals, but are against historically common ways of having food TO eat. Kimchi, Sauerkraut, Blood Sausages, Hakarl. Pickles, Smoked Fish, Canned Veggies, Yogurt, Cheese, Ham are all processed products, made with lots of chemicals and designed to store for months or years without cold. Are all of these historically important foods objectionable to you? Would SPAM be OK if it removed the ham? Its literally pork, salt and potato starch. I could make SPAM at home with a 5 minute grocery store run to buy salt, pork and starch, and sodium nitrate (or celery) So once, again, what is your objection to this processing? Do you consider boiled pork mince, salt, celery juice, and starch excessive processing?

Are all of these historically important foods objectionable to you? You were the one arguing that SPAM isn't highly processed food in a can, that's what my objection was. I consider every one of those foods you listed processed in some way as is most of the food we eat because cooking is processing. Grinding is processing. Chopping is processing. All of them have tradeoffs in nutrition, texture, taste, and preservation. You seem to have taken it personally, as if I'm making some sort of judgement on your diet. I don't care, I'm done with this nonsense.
