10.01.2022 What Exactly Are Processed Foods? A processed food is any food that has been changed in some way from its natural state, including cooked, frozen, canned, packaged, fortified, preserved, or prepared foods.

Other examples are yogurt, boxed cake mixes, bread, and salad dressing. 4. Ready-to-eat processed foods. The above foods are ready to eat but are typically used as ingredients to make other foods. A ready-to-eat food has been processed further to be eaten as is. This includes crackers, cookies, cereal, deli meats, and bakery products. 5. Ultra-processed foods.
