[quote=Anonymous]If it comes to you cooked (deli meat) or made into cheese it's processed. Now, some foods and brands are gong to be processed in healthier ways than other brands. For example, pasta is a processed food I'm happy to buy, because I don't think the processing adds much that's negative. Cheese is a processed food I'm happy to buy because it's delicious and worth it! Deli meat, I can make at home and avoid all the preservatives and salt, so I don't buy it, unless I have a good reason like it's something I can't make at home (e.g. I'll buy some fancy Italian deli meats) or time is of the essence (e.g. I didn't have time to cook my own). I don't think processed food is evil. I think that generally processing adds the possibility of increased risk, and that reducing processed food is a shortcut for picking things that are in general healthier. But I also think that there needs to be balance and taste, and convenience are things I'm willing to take into account.[/quote]
