News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I would suspect processed food too. It seems like this trend has tracked with the rise in ultra-processed foods.
I've done the same. The most processed food in my diet these days is cheese. The best number of ingredients to be listed on a package is one.
The rule of thumb is "can I have this ingredient on my kitchen?" If not then that food is ultra-processed. Of course you have to apply this rule wisely, for instance, the list of ingredients that you can have in a kitchen contains only the traditional things people used to prepare food.
Another good rule of thumb: If the packet says it's healthy, it isn't. It came in a packet.
msg is traditional some places (peruvian super spice anyone) therefore i am keeping it
Processed foods have been around since at least the 1970s. We were eating Kraft dinner, La Choy, Doritos, canned foods, tv dinners, sugary cereals etc.
Thats 50 years. That's not that long
Edit: From the Article
more microplastics bullshit.
Here's the world breakdown. China is worst because of industrial pollutants.
Lol. This is a population map. Projections to 2040? Without knowing cause, this is conjecture.
India and china have roughly the same population... unless india is severely under diagnosed.
Is that even legal in the US?
Only if the ingredient is HFCS.
also MSG
Question MSG on the internet and people will call you racist.
I just use it. I was at the carneceria (Mexican meat market for all y'all uncultured you know what get your assets to the local Mexican grocer they're awesome see for yourself) and saw "Peruvian Super Spice" and color me intrigued, right? Pure MSG. Cracked me the fuck up.
Also hard boiled eggs!
(While funny at a glance, it is better to be consistent and always include the warning even when it is the thing.)
