Damnit I love Honey Nut Cheerios. Damnit.

  Yep, some of those foods taste good in part because of how they've been processed. Essentially, stuff that's been heavily deconstructed, assembled or which has gone through a phase change should be suspect, including shredded, pressurized, high temp, oxygenated, puffed, textured, etc.

  What's it made of, wheat? Does it look like wheat? No? Then it's been ground up and reformed. And there's a bunch of other ingredients, but the grinding is the major culprit. It's basically predigested, and slams glucose into your blood quickly, over time promoting insulin resistance, eventually wearing out your pancreas. Less processed food requires your body to spend time and energy breaking it down. Bread is the same, it's ground and reformed grain. It doesn't matter if it's organic, or "whole grain," or Famous Dave's, it's still ground grain.

    Of course we’ve been grinding and reforming grain into bread for 10,000 years so it’s a lot more complicated than you lay out
