Muffins and ice cream don’t harm your health because they’re “made in a factory.”

The advice to cut out these foods is probably good, but I wish they didn’t tie it to this romantic, appeal-to-nature silliness.



The label "processed food" indicates not only that the food was probably made in a factory, but that its also full of preservatives and lacking in nutrients, generally. This article doesn't seem, to me, to be tying their argument to an appeal-to-nature.


Or they're just full of sugar. Ice cream isn't unhealthy because it 'lacks nutrients' it is unhealthy because it is basically just shoveling sugar into your mouth.
