When you eat pork, what do you consider the "edible portion" or the "whole
food?"

The whole body? Eating extracted lard (refined) or amino acid broth
(refined) would be refining these things. But what is your point?
Do you still find a problem with the nomenclature that olive oil
extracted from olives is a refined product? Just look at the mining
industry for parallels .

My contention is only that modern food production is leading us astray
by "refining" the calories from wholefoods. Oil from seeds, olives,
animals, carbs from grains and tubers, sugar from cane and beet.
These refined calories are what is overloading our bodies with energy,
and also losing us some of the nutrients that occur in the discarded,
less palatable parts of the wholefood.

But if you don't like "refned" howsabout "calorie concentrated", or
"fibre deprived"? jack

I have the same view as you on this. But I asked a question. Do you eat the
whole animal or only parts?
