What is Food processing?
'''Food processing''' means the ways that are used to change raw [[wikt:ingredient|ingredient]]s into [[food]] so that they can be eaten by [[human]]s or [[animal]]s. The food processing industry uses these processes. Food processing often takes clean, [[harvest]]ed or slaughtered and [[butcher]]ed [[wikt:component|components]] and uses these to produce attractive and [[marketing|marketable]] food products. A similar process is used to produce animal feed. == Industries == Food processing industries and practices include the following: * Cannery * [[Cooking]] * Industrial rendering * Meat packing plant * [[Slaughterhouse]] * [[Sugar#Production|Sugar industry]] * Vegetable packing plant ==Related pages== *[[Food preservation]] *[[Farming]] *[[Cattle]] *[[Fishing]] ==Other websites== *[http://www.foodprocessingktn.com/ Food processing Faraday] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080224225355/http://www.foodprocessingktn.com/ |date=2008-02-24 }} *[http://www.foodprocessing.com/ Foodprocessing Informational Website] *[http://www.hyfoma.com/ Hyfoma Food processing and manufacturing knowledge Portal] *[http://www.ift.org Institute of Food Technologists] *[http://www.magimix-spares.co.uk/which_processor.asp How to choose a food processor] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100109045503/http://www.magimix-spares.co.uk/which_processor.asp |date=2010-01-09 }} *[http://www.foodprocessorreview.co.uk Food Processor Review] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210506014425/http://foodprocessorreview.co.uk/ |date=2021-05-06 }} *[http://magimixrecipes.blogspot.com Food Processor Recipes] *[http://www.foodprocessing-technology.com/ Food Processing Technology] *[http://www.fpsa.org U.S. association of suppliers to the global food, beverage and pharmaceutical processing industries] {{food-stub}} [[Category:Manufacturing]]
