Transformed food is less healthy than things cooked in butter.

Sorry I used the wrong word in my comment. It’s corrected.

I get what you mean, I’m just arguing that there is too much focus on “health marketing”, instead of important things like macros and regulating known carcinogens.
If I eat a mcdouble and a diet coke, I’m eating much healthier than if I ate a whole rotissery chicken with potato wedges and a glass of apple juice. Calories and reducing sugar intake are the most important things.

Yes, but you can only compare the comparable. If you eat the same amount of calories from ultra-processed food and from unprocessed or minimally processed food, the ultra-processed will cause more health problems than the unprocessed food (for example, you’ll gain more body fat, but there are other problems).
