There's processed, and then there's Processed. When I make bread, it's a processed food, it's not just whole wheats. Except for fruit, most of what I eat is processed, but not much Processed.

French fries are so delicious though. Chips and chips are my junk food.

The actual term is ultra processed. Anything that requires industrial level machinery to make or industrial ingredients are ultra processed.

This podcast episode goes into great detail about the subject. https://youtu.be/eNOi66OclA4?si=XDtfu-NhhfYLlThx

Requires? You can make French fries at home. Doesn't make it organic, or healthy.

Oven fries we do make, unpeeled organic Russet potatoes in olive oil and salt. I'd file those under minimally processed. Not even as processed as the sourdough bread I make.

But the delicious fries fro McDonald's that are so far removed from being a potato seem more processed.

Ultra -processed I thought was like a Twinkie or Pringles or a frozen packaged dinner. Those sort of foods I have maybe once a month if you count diet coke, but only ever that occasional diet coke and at Halloween my kids save me the mini Milky Way Midnight if they get any. So not none, but approaching none.

That would still be processed food. Ultra processed foods have additives like preservatives, coloring, and flavoring that you can’t typically buy off the shelf on their own. Frying is just another way to cook food, doesn’t make it organic or healthy.
