Processed Meat Topic

Turducken 10/05/23
I'm wondering what exactly makes a meat processed-- can any preservation method such as salt count? I know they're considered unhealthy/linked to some cancers. There are many sausages I love such as South African boerowors, and I'm not sure if all sausages etc count as processed. I also am not a fan of cooking meat, so having slices of lean turkey or canned chicken is handy. This article got me wondering: https://www.consumerreports.org/health/food-safety/is-uncured-bacon-better-for-you-a1351961696/#:~:text=Nitric%20oxide%20production%20may%20help,regular%20part%20of%20your%20diet.”
Thanks!
