Processed meats are anything that does more than come off the animal, get cut into bits and prepped for sale. Pork loin is not a processed meat. Carving-ready ham is, because it's generally been cut into chunks, slammed into a sock, bathed in brine, pressure cooked and wrapped in a vegetable protein wrapper to turn it into lunch meat.
