Why is it that most foods that taste good 'are bad for you' (in general)?

[Ramsay_imp]

Like chocolate, baking, burgers, fires, pizza..etc.
They're all fatty, salty, sugary etc.
And all the gross food like most vegetables are supposedly good for you..? Why do you think that is.
I guess the only exception is fruit..

Tasty food is made using flavours.
flavours are made up of chemicals.
chemicals will affect the health!!!

I don't find vegetables gross-never have. I also enjoy the flavor of whole grains. Many people find that if they avoid those fatty, salty and sugary processed foods for a time, they begin to be able to taste the delicious flavors of natural foods. Try it, you might like it.

Those foods usually contain lots of calories and when we were still evolving more calories meant a better chance of survival. So, things such as fruits are sweet because our bodies want us to crave them so we'll eat them and consume larger quantities of calories.

full of sugar salt and fat- fat is flavor

When you have the pallet of a common tramp it seems that way.
