Rocco Renaldi, secretary general of the International Food & Beverage Alliance (IFBA), discusses the movement toward defining foods on the processing spectrum from “not processed” to “ultraprocessed,” and how the challenges run deeper than the superficial labels that currently exist.
In addition, Renaldi shares his ideas for how the industry can work together with science and find a way forward that not only properly categorizes foods on this spectrum, but also works to make more healthy, fresh foods more affordable and accessible for communities and consumers who need them most.
Read some of our recent content showing just how unclear the definitions around ultraprocessed foods appear to many in the industry, from our May cover story, "Ultraprocessed or Not? The Answers Aren’t Yet Clear", to our recent guest column "Ultraprocessed Foods: What Are We Even Talking About?".
