Good luck with nuance here. Nutrition is challenging precisely because it isn't 1s and 0s, and the pedantry brigade struggles with that. Is one tub of Ben & Jerry's gonna kill you? No. Is it good for you? No. UPFs are a spectrum, and I don't see why folks here get so offended by the idea that maybe the healthiness of foods falls along a spectrum. The knee-jerk reactionary negativity is fascinating, but like... in a sad way. It's hard not to read it as the same anti-intellectualism that seems to permeate the more... persuadable parts of the tech community. "Scientists say UPFs are bad. Scientists are wrong. Therefore, UPFs are good, actually." It explains why there's so much anti-vax nonsense here (watch, my comment probably won't even get posted). Sad.
