UNCOOKED is a term used to describe food that has not been heated or processed in any way. It is often associated with RAW ingredients, such as fruits and vegetables, which are eaten without being cooked. UNCOOKED can also refer to food that has been prepared but not yet cooked, such as dough for baking. In general, UNCOOKED food is considered to be healthier than cooked food, as it retains more of its natural nutrients.
