Frank Food

A series challenge to distinguish what is “frank food” versus “Frankenstein food.”
Frank food:
Food that is forthright, honest, blunt, truthful, candid, aboveboard.
Frank foods cannot be adulterated.

The problem is, it’s not always easy for find frank food, but some products are more frank than others.

However, our use of frank foods for this series can include minimally processed foods. After all, we recognize that we live in a different time than our grandmothers did. While you may not like either of these options, the reality is, not everyone has the same access to choice. Though the purists may want to take up arms, we want to make this accessible to the majority of consumers – and the majority of us purchase at least some processed foods. An important distinction of processed frank foods is that our grandmothers would still likely recognize them. Example? Peanut butter is technically processed, but frank peanut butter is made of peanuts and salt and Frankenstein peanut butter is made of hydrogenated oils crafted in a science lab.
