I am not trying to invalidate you. I'm 33 and I think about how something is processed. Though, it's prudent to keep in mind that the further you think about how something is processed, you will eventually come to the realizations about the levels of processing. For example: You could make your own olive, grape and peanut oil with less processing or more depending on how you do it.

The misunderstanding, and rightly, the confusion, comes like you said from the level of processing. Cooking is considered processing - so these words have little value in reality as they mean different things for different people

Nah

The sad thing is - we COULD produce processed foods designed for our health. We just choose not to.

Yes, mostly.

(Meanwhile we evolved to eat not-ultraprocessed food so obviously that's best for us.)

Not how this works. Evolution cares about us procreating and spreading our genes, not living long healthy lives. Hence there being plenty animals that die after having children. "We evolved to" just means it won't kill us quickly, not that it is healthy long term.

I just found it. It's an organic shitpost.

Thank god the global South has so many white saviours.

Borlaug quite litterally paved the way for industrialized agriculture in countries like India with all the devastating social and environmental effects that come with it.

But sure there were severe famines before Borlaug came, all their own fault.

Now I'm wondering if anyone has ever labeled salt as organic.

Meal replacement drinks and powders exist. They are pretty much that.

They do it's called cereal.

Please I need human kibble to happen for totally normal reasons

My ISP provided the fiber, they came and hooked it up and everything.

What's weird about titanium dioxide?

GMOs aren't dangerous because of the genetic manipulation. They're dangerous because of everything around it. Now it's possible to create vegetables that survive a centimetre of glyphosate coating. And if the farmers reuse seeds, they're breaching copyright law. With this, plants are copyrightable, would you like all of the cancer of contemporary American IP law applied to your food?

Yeah ancestral plants that became many crops look almost nothing like their descendants in many cases

The funniest I think are secondary crops like oats and rye. Our forebears weren’t even trying to grow a better version of those, those started off as just weeds that people were trying to get rid of in their wheatfields. In the course of purging them they accidentally selected for more wheat-like plants that people would be less likely to rip out until they became actual decent crops on their own, while also maintaining hardiness in areas that wheat couldn’t handle such that they spun off and became popular on their own rights.
