But the less processed the better. And eating something else is probably better still.

I feel the UPF "debate" is just an appeal to nature, and calorie/nutrient density should be what we fixate on.
As much as the same can be said about plants.
It's why the debate rarely exits the semantic stage into the empirical stage of argument where we look at the human health outcome data on supposedly scary chemicals.
Meanwhile, we also have data on not-so-processed foods that are bad for us, and the level of processing did nothing to spare us the negative health impact.
