Potatoes are also vegetables.

Tobacco is also plant-based and I'm sure chickens are made of the vegetables they eat as well.

Sure would be cool to go back to a time where words had meaning

The breadcrumb is also a vegetable

Some meats are also vegetables.

I am banned from the coma ward. The morgue staff has yet to locate me yet.

"Processed food" is something designed to be eaten, "organic food" is just some shit someone found in the dirt

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (3 children)

Here's how useless the term "processed food" is when it come to health: Canned and frozen vegetables are considered a processed food. Milk, cheese, and bread are also processed foods.

There is a distinct difference in food science between processed food (anything that has been cut, or undergone any kind of process) and ultra-processed food (made of many different ingredients, many of which cannot be found in an ordinary kitchen, and undergone multiple processes). While the term is not perfect, it is still useful when talking in general terms.

The second you take a cut of meat and grind it into, well, ground meat, it is ‘processed’.

[–] Zarobi@aussie.zone -2 points 2 weeks ago

That's a really extreme take of that term. Normally, processed food means like, sugar cereal and biscuits; not frozen spinach pucks and tofu. Just because it's a loose fuzzy term instead of a formal scientific definition doesn't make it useless

Most plants we eat today were cultivated for centuries to be more nutrient and calorie-dense than the original plant.

[–] Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I agree. They are not just things we found in the dirt anymore.

I prefer sugar free artificial sweeteners, MADE BY MAN!

I was on a train crossing the border and border patrol came on and asked everyone if they had fruits or veg.

This group ahead of me said "we don't eat that stuff" and then all four laughed. The sad punchline is that he thought he was so clever, but alli saw was 4 obese people not realizing how much they just said about themselves.

That is the saddest fried chicken I've ever seen.

[–] Sanguine@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 weeks ago

I believe they prefer to be referred to as tendies.

This man has never been to a Sickie's bar and grill.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Looks more like Shake'n'Bake chicken, not actually fried chicken.

Holy crap, how many chickens is that?
