NOVA classification
Factual definition
A system that groups foods by the nature, extent and purpose of processing. It describes processing categories; it is not by itself a complete nutritional-quality score.
SATIRICAL ANALOGY — NOT A DEFINITION
A processing label that is not a magical “good food/bad food” button.
