I buy as little processed food as possible, and I don't eat out much, mainly because I want to know what's in my food. Plus my taste buds tend to get angry if I eat something not good enough. I'm not kidding. This makes it tricky when we're on road trips, because trying to find decent food in the middle of nowhere poses a problem most of the time. We bring lots of snacks with us, but those are for in between meals. I don't mind stopping in at a random diner and having a burger and fries, but they better taste good, not like some frozen dinner. I also won't eat at any of the main stream fast food burger places. I like Pita Pit, they have loads of tasty toppings, and I can get a hummus or falafel pita, I don't order the meat ones, cause even if it's not processed, it comes in individual plastic wrap packages and does not look appetizing. Their toppings include all the basics, but they also have spinach and romaine lettuce, not just iceberg, real cheeses, like feta, cheddar, and possibly another one. They even have Tzatziki and raw mushrooms, sprouts, etc. I almost always get the hummus pita with loads of veg, spinach instead of lettuce, feta, and tzatziki. Pita Pit does not have enough locations, especially outside of a few urban centres.
Anyway, back to gross ingredients in food. I came across these 2 articles, definitely worth a read, especially if you do eat pre-made or processed food. Here they are:
