It means they haven't had any alterations to them that disturb their natural make-up.

Conversely, foods processed during food manufacturing are often loaded with trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, or saturated fats during food processing. Eating processed foods has been linked to health problems.

According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, anything that's been canned, frozen, or altered in anyway from its natural state its considered processed food. Even simply cooking foods means its been processed. But a diet of unprocessed foods, or raw foods, alone isn't sustainable. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recommends that a minimal amount of processed foods can be added alongside a diet of whole foods as balance. Minimally processed foods

- t_headline: The Trend of Unprocessed Foods in Restaurants t_text: Healthy eating habits have become a growing awareness among consumers. The benefits of eating organic, unprocessed foods has even made its way into restaurants and onto fast food menus.

Whole grains, gluten free options, fresh fruit and lean meats are being consumed more with a reduction in processed foods. Sustainability and the reduction of food waste is also at the forefront of new developments in dining out.

More restaurants are using some form of technology to track their food waste and correct it. While others are coming up with ingenious ways of re-purposing the discarded food into new items through clever food processing.

With the scare of a meat shortage at the end of 2020, many consumers shifted to a plant-based diet. According to data from a Grubhub report, over 25% of consumers have ordered vegan-friendly options compared to past years.

To ride this trend, a number of companies are introducing meatless options. Even fast food chains known for years of highly processed foods have started shifting with the trends. Carl's Jr. and Burger King are now offering plant-based meat substitutes from the companies Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods.

They aren't without their processing faults as many don't agree with the added ingredients that are being used in the meatless products. But it's a start in the right direction. Even with the concern, millions of diners still clamored for the plant-based chicken option from Kentucky Fried Chicken. The new food product sold out within hours at several locations.

Giving customers new options on the menu that cater to a healthy lifestyle is a draw for some of the chains. But consumers are savvy and on the lookout for any added ingredients. Still, having the option can draw in new customers. p_headline_type: h2 image: i_image: the-trend-of-unprocessed-foods-in-restaurants-1619047997-7358.png t_description: //pixabay.com/photos/salad-fruits-berries-healthy-2756467/ v_attribution: //pixabay.com/photos/salad-fruits-berries-healthy-2756467/ v_license: Creative Commons Zero callout_text: - t_title: Unprocessed Food Trends Statistics t_text: - t_headline: Conclusion to Unprocessed Foods t_text: p_headline_type: h2 image: i_image: conclusion-to-unprocessed-foods-1619052573-3422.png t_description: //pixabay.com/photos/smoothie-juice-drink-food-3697014/ v_attribution: //pixabay.com/photos/smoothie-juice-drink-food-3697014/ v_license: Creative Commons Zero callout_text: event_body: json-ld_event: t_name: Employee Scheduling for Restaurant Managers t_description: Attendees will learn how create excellent schedules.
