I think if your food preparation consists of pricking the film with a fork, and turning the dial to 2mins on full; It’s probably not going to have the nutritional value you’re hoping for, and you could probably help yourself by starting with fresher ingredients.
Absolutely. I mostly cook from basic ingredients, although I have been known to go for an M&S or Waitrose microwave curry, as they are rather nice 😀 (though when I can be bothered I make my own curry).
Anyway “processed”. Sure, the ready meal is the obvious evil. Reformed meat apparently, although is it any different to the same meat before it was reformed? (assuming it hasn’t undergone the “pink slime” process to kill bacteria that MuckyD was using).
But what about…
Sausages. Nice proper fresh ones from the butcher, not mealy/wheat ones. They’re still considered processed food and on the hit list for cancer recently.
Likewise bacon. I mean BACON! 😯 . Bacon can never be considered evil! 😉
Cured cold meats, ham, salami etc. Also on the causes cancer list.
Pasteurised milk/cheese and anything made from these. Do you go raw, or are you vegan?
If you’re into “clean” eating, do you avoid these also?
