[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a bit of semantics for items like pasta. If you make a dough, roll it out and dry it, that is "processed". In general, people try to avoid additives and food that is engineered, such as twinkies. An item with a simple ingredients list is healthier than one with lots of ingredients that include a chemistry degree to interpret. Processed foods can also be high in sugar, oil, and salt in order to extend the shelf life of the item. [/quote] That’s why they specified “ultra processed.” The article in Wapo about ultra processed food already made the same distinction pointing out that technically even cooking a vegetable or meat is “processed.” [/quote]
