Cool I see your point. In my mind grinding is processing. It is being processed so we can make something something else out of it. Would you eat it on its own?

I broadly wipe that anything that can't be done with ones hands is processed. But that opens the question if cooking meat is considered processing.
I can't see prehistoric man grinding wheat to make a meal.
- DanBC 12y agoWheat is used in many recipes without being ground into flour. See cracked wheat or bulgar wheat for examples. Cooking meat causes chemical changes - maillard reaction. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maillard_reaction http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maillard_reaction Many low tech cultures use carbs obtained from crushing or pulping grains. The reason they don't use wheat is not because of the need for grinding but because of the need for agriculture.
