[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So bacon, turkey, bread are the main UP foods. I was hoping the turkey breast sliced at home and the sourdough multi-grain from the bakery were not ultra processed. [/quote]

Bacon and turkey are NOT ultra processed, and neither is the bread if it does not have additives. If you bought the bread in the regular supermarket aisle is probably is ultra processed.

The most commonly used research definition of ultra processed would put bacon in the processed category, not ultra processed, along with other preserved foods. Bread that has a bunch of additives and artificial ingredients is ultra processed. Turkey (which sounds like it came from a turkey breast and not cold cut) would be unprocessed or minimally processed.

Costco almost certainly counts as mass-produced, and they package their bread. According to the NOVA rules, the bread must not be packaged. [/quote]

Did you actually read that link? That is not what it says. [/quote]
