Definition: To perform a particular process on a thing.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a peek,
At the word "processed," what does it speak?
The dictionary tells us, clear and bright,
"To perform a particular process, with all your might!"
But that's a little broad, you see, it’s true,
Let’s break it down for me and you.
“Processed” often means something’s been changed,
A little bit altered, rearranged!
Think of apples, fresh from the tree,
Then turned to juice – that's processed, you agree?
Or maybe cereal, a crunchy treat,
Grain transformed with sugar, oh so sweet!
It could be cheese, or crackers too,
Things made different, just for me and you.
Essentially it means we’ve taken something raw,
And used a method to change it, that’s the law!
So, “processed” is about action, don't you see?
A process applied – for all to be free!
Does that make sense, my clever crew?
Any questions bubbling up for me and you?
