The foods routinely available in the UK have numerous places of origin around the world; many are imported.
Contemporary food production, processing and distribution systems are much more complex than those of the past.
There are potential positive and negative impacts of contemporary food production, processing and distribution systems.

Limited understanding of the difference between unprocessed and processed or ultra-processed foods.

Sort some different foods into categories according to their level of processing.

Place of origin - The place of origin is the place where something first comes from
Imported - Goods that are imported are brought in from another country
Greenhouse gas emissions - Greenhouse gas emissions are gases that are released and trap heat in Earth’s atmosphere
In season - In season means the time of year when a food is naturally ready for harvesting
Processing - Processing means making changes to a food’s natural state. An example is cooking beans in a tomato sauce and preserving them in tins
