[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We eat a combination of processed and made-from-scratch meals.

Our pre-prepared ingredients include things like:
1. Bread & crackers
2. Yogurt
3. Applesauce
4. Dried fruits
5. Frozen veg.
6. Dried pasta
7. Pasta sauce
8. Canned beans
9. Luncheon meats (salami, turkey, ham slices)
10. Muffins (morning glory kinds of things)
11. Cheese and butter
12. Hummus
13. Ice cream treat
14. Cookies, gummy bears, or other  treat.
15. Nutella
16. Peanut butter and jelly
17. Instant brown rice
18. Hot dogs

I call them processed, because I don't make those things at home. But I do, as much as possible, strive to get these as organic and in BPA free containers.

Our "fresh" stuff includes
1. Salad and fixin's
2. Salad dressing
3. Dinner main-course meats
4. Vegetables
5. Fresh fruits for snacking

Gosh, look how short that list is.  :) Well, I'm just not going to be making my own bread, cheese, and sandwich spreads...[/quote]

This does not seem responsive to the question at all.  You eat mainly processed foods. [/quote]

How is this post not responsive?  Many folks have posted that they serve their kids things like cheese and applesauce and stuff, and these are on the PP's "processed" list.  I suppose the OP could take a list like this one to determine the extent to which he/she would be willing to make his/her own bread, cheese, yogurt, homemade pasta (or would using flour and salt mean it's processed?), hummous made from dried beans (or is that processed?), meat (which I suppose would mean that the animals are slaughtered and prepared from a farm in the backyard) and so on.  In addition, the PP lists the foods that are not processed (as much).

Methinks your quibble with the post might require a clearer definition on your part about why it is not "responsive."

Keep Calm. Carry On.[/quote]
