I worked in the food industry for a few years and have spent enough time in food manufacturing/packaging/processing plants to not want to eat much of it if I can.
Why eat a load of chemical preservatives, excess salt to try and make it taste good, and additives that are simply in there to extend shelf life or create textures that would be destroyed after weeks in storage and on shelves? Why not buy fresh fruit and veg and just cook it yourself without having to consume all the extra stuff of unknown origin and quality?
I’m lucky as we grow huge amounts of fruit and veg, but even if we didnt then I’d buy fresh ingredients and just cook for myself. Its also far cheaper and tastier!
