    Never. Don't even need to use my microwave.

    My diary is a homage to processed foods.
    Yesterday, there is some reeses pieces, tater tots, onion rings, whey...
    today there will definitely be some pepsi, reeses and more tater tots.
    Note: they are miniature tater tots, so they are miniaturally processed

    By true definition, I think everybody eats processed foods. It's unavoidable unless you're a farmer or something, but I've avoided microwaveable food and pre-packaged meals for several years now. Unless you count stuff like pizza?

    I microwave everything. Microwaved tater tots taste waaaaaaaaaaay better and crispier than baked. Try it!
    It also consumes less power, so you know, it's environmental.

    The only thing I don't microwave is plastic. Otherwise the MW is my best friend. As science buff, I know that the microwave isn't "evil" and it isn't giving me cancer.

    I don't eat pre packaged meals but use odd items for convenience in cooking. I try my hardest to eat as clean as possible and avoid processed but it's hard as most things are processed in some way or another. :-\

    I dont eat too many frozen dinners but honestly when working 12hr shifts its easier to throw a lean cuisine into my luch box then pack a full lunch esp on the 3rd or 4th day (I also drive and hour one way so its really like a 14+ hour day gone) Everything in moderation though

    I try to eat clean, but it's more of the 80/20 rule. I usually had a little bit of Edy's ice cream as a midnight snack or some frozen yogurt. I don't make packaged meals or anything like that. I do eat vita top muffins for a high fiber snack or will eat some dark chocolate. Not sure if you consider that processed. I am guilty of cereal sometimes though! :)

    I eat some processed food, though much less than I used to. You don't have to be a 100%, all-or-nothing food nazi to live healthier than you started. :smile:

    I wouldn't suggest microwaving tin foil either...

    Four days a week I eat dinner at work so sometimes it's just unavoidable. That said, I do try to bring better options most of the time. I don't cook much so most of my meals are leftovers from my mom's house. If there aren't any and I don't have anything myself, well, it's either something microwaveable or nothing.
