If It Tastes Good, It’s Bad For You

They never tell you what you need to know.
And I’ve mentioned this before, with all the technology out on the world today how come some scientist out there can’t figure out away to make cauliflower taste like deep dish pizza?
I thought of a few. I like blueberries and strawberries.
Are eggs okay? One week they are the next they aren’t. A simple fried egg with some pepper hits the spot. If I add salt then it’s bad for you.
Fish, and shell fish. I guess I shouldn’t eat it fried 😜, baked or grilled is good for me although I have to have at least a little butter with my crab and lobster.
Beef and chicken - I guess it depends on how it prepared. I’m guessing my usually preference of chicken as in chicken nuggets and beef in a Shake Shack burger form isn’t good for you either.
Got something to say?

If it's all of them then you're probably fucked. Enjoy the cauliflower and boneless skinless chicken breasts.
IME trying to conquer every ill is unsustainable, so I decided that sugar (including all carbs) are my biggest enemy. I got much healthier when I cut the carbs out. When we lose weight, our hearts are under less strain, our blood pressure drops and (especially in a car restricted diet) diabetes becomes less of a risk/issue. I fell off the wagon for a while when my home situation changed, but I'm back on again and already feeling much better - I will never fall off again.
Personally I'm willing to endure a little higher cholesterol and enjoy a bit of salt if I can keep the weight under control in the process, but everyone has different issues to consider. Give me a steak and Caesar salad or a basket of buffalo wings and let me enjoy them while I continue to get slimmer and I'm a happy man.
I rarely have sweets like ice cream or candy. Can't remember the last time I ate cookies, but if I have just one I'll eat the whole fucking bag like Cookie Monster.
Have tried pizza with a cauliflower crust? They are actually quite delicious!
What a matters most is having a variety and mixing things up. It keeps things fresh and fun, and once you add a new dish to your arsenal yiu will eventually have a stack of excellent meals to put in your rotation. That to me is eating tastefully and healthy, getting in all of your nutrients mixed in with fat, carbs, and protein equally. I make sure I indulge in dessert daily, but also hit the strip club at least once or twice a month. Again, along with the theme of variety to spice things up in life.
Since sugar was so rare in most people’s diet, their dental health was actually really good. Only about 20% of the teeth found show signs of decay
But, we are all human (although I’m a bit unsure about Scrubbie), and prone to going a bit too far when enjoying certain tasty foods. As long as it doesn’t become a real habit, it should hopefully be ok.
I understand certain health issues develop as we age, it’s best to keep a reasonable balance of eating and exercising (or basic activities).
For example, you need carboHYDRATEs to absorb water and you need water to live, also carbohydrates make your metabolism work and work better.
But what you SHOULD eat depends on your purpose, “healthy” eating is very general, if you want to change or improve how you eat, you need to identify your purpose first and that will indicate what you should eat. 👍🏼

Typically Keto aims for no more than 50 grams of carbs per day but I practiced strict Keto, no more than 20 g per day and the pounds just dropped off. I ate 2-3 eggs per day, butter, bacon and cheese. I was concerned about too much fat but my cholesterol actually significantly dropped. Go figure that one.
