I disagree, I categorise edibles thusly:
Food is alive.
Non-alive edibles are either:
Survival Rations (made out of food, can still spoil. E.g. Pasta sauce).
Drugs (made more out of chemicals or food processed to unrecognisability, tends not to spoil. E.g.: Lollies, potato chips).

I consider the last 2 to be a spectrum sliding from Survival Rations to Drugs based primarily on sugar-content.

I think the issue is the difference between these 2 forms of ultra-processing: (a) throwing a bunch of essentially-otherwise-waste together with various flavouring and shelf-life-prolonging chemicals to make an "edible" hotdog. (b) Assembling a highly-researched collection of highly-nutritious ingredients, perhaps to the molecular level, to make a total-food baby formula.
One of these things is not like the other.

Also, I DO have a very simple bucket that IS both VERY clear and VERY helpful: Food is alive!
