Over 80% of foods marketed to toddlers in the United States are ultraprocessed, while nearly half also fail to meet global nutritional guidelines, a new study found.
Maybe it depends on what processes call under “processed”? Like I could see a world where the way cows are treated counts as being processed (being pumped full of drugs and such)
“Ultra processed” is frankly a meaningless label in health discussions.
Raw milk is not healthier than “ultra processed” (i.e. pasteurised) milk for example. Ultra processed baby food is and should be the norm over raw, untreated baby food.
That’s the problem though, there is no fixed definition for “Ultra processed foods” that doesn’t include healthy foods. Its a label people slap onto unhealthy foods and then retroactively attempt to categorise.

That is processing, not ultra processing.
Pasteurisation is not ultra processed in anything I have seen before.

I can’t seem to get a straight answer but it seems most raw meats are in category 4. Salami is category 4.
Salami is not raw meat.
I think they were saying it’s dumb for raw meat to be in the same category as salami.
No I was using it as an example. It was just a bad choice. Sausage is cat 4. I can’t get a direct answer on something like raw Chicken.
also you wouldnt feed a baby raw meat anyways.
It literally doesn’t
