I never understood why people think unhealthy food has all the flavor. Most unhealthy food is just sugar, salt, fat, and a tiny pinch of flavor. Just get the flavor without the other crap and it's much more intense. Most vegetables, fruit, beans, legumes, and grains have lots of great flavor and are low in calories. Fermented foods have tons of flavor and extra health benefits. There's a gigantic range of herbs, spices, extracts. It would take a million years before you exhaust all the possible combinations. Imagine any non-animal flavor and it's probably not unhealthy. If all you can think of is meat or oil, you just need to expose yourself to new cuisines.
