    Yeah, but those aren’t ultra-processed (usually) that’s just how jams are made. She’s referring to the adding of large and unusual amounts of sugar in order to raise the shelf life of a product.

For me for example it’s just living more healthily, the animals too yes. But 10 years ago being vegan meant that your consumption of processed food was at a minimum. You left out all the obvious unhealthy choices and focused on eating real foods.

    Added sugars * christ. There's a distinction from sugars being part of a recipe, e.i jams and such. And just blatantly adding sugars in effort make something shelf stable.

    Sugar doesn't make thing shelf stable. If anything it just causing it to go bad faster. Also a lot of finished goods are processed so they can be eaten right. Like would you just go out to the field get some wheat and eat it can call it bread, no. Everything is processed to a point and some things are enriched to add in vitamins and minerals into it cause it lost so much during a process like White bread which it's flour is enriched to give the bread something more then just the germ of the grain which is a lot of energy but very little vitamins and minerals that when out with rest of the grain. They add in some sweeteners into whole grains or even low fat milks cause the would not be very palatable otherwise. The same goes for Milk alternatives also.
