- mido22 10y agocanned tomatoes is bad??? :-O, trust me, unhealthy vegan food is not easy to find, because, most times, it is hard to find processed vegan snacks to begin with, and quickly get bored of eating the same brand of unhealthy ones
- cyphar 10y ago> canned tomatoes is bad??? Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but all canned fruit/vegetables are insanely packed with sugar and salt. So yes. They're bad for you. Granola is also bad for you. Nuts contain a lot of fat. Kale is bad for your thyroids. And so on.
- lorenzhs 10y agoNot sure how this is in other countries, but here (Germany) canned tomatoes contain: tomatoes, tomato juice, citric acid. Why would there be added sugar and salt?
- rwmj 10y agoI'm guessing the GP means tomato (pasta) sauce, which is usually stuffed with all sorts of terrible stuff. Making incredible pasta sauce is so easy I don't know why anyone buys it pre-made.
- eru 10y agoAnd even salt is not actually unhealthy (unless you are part of that population whom salt gives trouble with their blood pressure). Of course, make sure you drink enough non-sugary, non-alcoholic liquids with your salt. But people automatically get thirsty on salt anyway---so no need for advice.
- tonyedgecombe 10y agoThe same here (UK), in fact tinned tomatoes are often better quality than the generic fresh ones on sale in most supermarkets.
- lorenzhs 10y agoSoda. Fries. Chips. Peanuts. Gummy bears (with pectin instead of gelatin). A carb-heavy diet consisting of pasta/potatoes + X. It's easy to eat unhealthy vegan stuff. But being aware of what you eat and what's in it is very helpful, and if a vegan diet does that for you, then that's great!
