Such intensely pleasurably flavored foods are actually useful for a minority who are underweight, feel full before they really get the necessary amount of energy (just have to keep an eye on nutrients, though, as such foods are lower on them), and have to "overeat" to not starve themselves.
- thomasahle 12y agoBeing underweight is not a reason to eat sugar. There's simply nothing good in it. Instead drink cream, eat potatoes, oats and other things with lots of healthy calories.
- drdaeman 12y agoObviously, foods are not only about energy supply. One needs all sorts of nutrients, so just eating lots of Doritos is a terrible idea. Maybe I'm wrong on this, but isn't every calorie source fairly acceptable if one hadn't got enough yet, and they're still far from a limit on how many one should get? I.e. a slice of pizza isn't "healthy" (nutritionally dense) but brings more good (+200-300 Kcal, and some protein from cheese and meat, and possibly some vitamins from vegetables if topping contains fresh ones) than bad (possible excess supply of triglycerides and some gastritis risk) if one had only consumed 1500 Kcal today and they really should get at least 2500. Especially if one has to force themselves to eat oatmeal, but would happily eat some tasty "junk food".
