I was with you until you fired a stray at Velveeta. Uncalled for.Yah. Technically speaking anything that is done to a food makes it "processed".
One good simple description I've seen is actually a question.
"Does the food you buy have ingredients? Or are they ingredients?"
As someone alluded to earlier, the center of the store will generally have pre-processed, pre-cooked, prepackaged foods with long ingredient lists that we can't pronounce. Then you have the vegetable section. Meat section. Etc... (And even they have been sprayed and treated with God knows what...)
Do you buy lots of whole ingredients and make recipes? Or do you buy Hungry Man TV dinners, Velveeta cheese products, and noodle kits with seasoning powder?
