Q&A: What's the deal with processed foods?
QUESTION: What’s the deal with processed foods? Should I avoid them?
ANSWER: let’s talk about it
Whether or not to eat processed foods is a question I get all the time, especially in recent years thanks to Instagram and TikTok. Many of my clients have an intense fear of eating processed foods, largely because they think they’re not “clean” (read here for why I will never use the term “clean eating”), harmful to health, or just generally “bad.” This of course is not necessarily the full story.
I ate a lot of boxed macaroni and cheese with cut up hotdogs and ketchup growing up and… I’m still here. what a delicacy that was.
