This video is brutal. It started off ok with stuff I don't eat anyway. But no ice cream or milk shakes? No flavored yogurt? No BBQ sauce? Wahhhh!
True story, i lived in Japan for 30 years, i've always had a normal diet (fish, rice, tofu, seaweed)...the only junk food i ever ate were pork buns. I dont think ive ever even had the cold, being sick was so rare. Fast forward, now i live in the united states and ate doritos for the first time. It was ADDICTING, i never tasted anything so good before. 6 months in i was eating doritos every night almost a whole bag per day, then in february i was diagnosed with polyps and gastritis...i have been in so much pain with serious digestive issues ever since. I truly believe it was from the doritos i was eating, i am never touching that stuff again!
The food is so bad in the US. I grew up there but now live in Europe. In the US corn syrup and preservatives are in almost everything. Plus a lot of salt. In Europe some of those things are banned so processed foods are still not good, but at least not as bad as in the US.
@@lemonem15cats I've never been to U.S. but my uncle has been living there for more than 40 years, before coming back to Italy. I remember him saying exactly the same words you wrote.
@@chiarab.z.2830 yeah, it's true. When I go back (to the US) to visit the food makes me feel sick. I suddenly have a lot of problems with indigestion again. I could be eating the same kinds of foods but the ingredients are different.
Do the put red dye #40 and sucralose in the cranberry juice in Europe, or just here in the United States? There’s so much added bullshit in our food like MSG, and all these chemicals that are keeping us sick.
@@HH-gv8mx The ingredients written on the label of most cranberry juices I find at supermarket are: water, cranberry puree, brown sugar and citric acid. And the juices are often in a glass bottle

Well done!
Thanks a million!!
Thank you for doing this…it’s easier to work on a list of foods you can eat. Much shorter list .

Mayonnaise is supposed to be my safe keto food 😭😭😭😭
What he described is basically most foods at the grocery store. Today, a ton of brands put preservatives and added sugar into their foods. It’s all to maximize profit and not maximizing our health. A big tip is to start making meals from scratch when you have the time. That way you control what goes into a meal more.
True, homemade mayo is way different than store bought
Yeah let me get right to that once i'm done working 12 hours a day to afford rent, bills, gas, and other utilities.
@@MegaDoom89 good luck, I’ve been doing it for a while. If it’s important to you, you’ll find a way. ❤️
@@PRATERVXEXvery true indeed 😊
You must go to great lengths in a grocery store to find --foods-- products without 1) added sugar 2) toxic oils 3) sketchy chemicals which may or may not directly cause cancer but everyone knows are not food, and NOBODY asserts that they are actually good for human health.
Holy shit He just listed everything I eat in a week😂
lol
Enjoy your suffering while you're alive, which won't be long.
question is: do you believe all that he says? Do you wish and pray you look like him?
Me too and I don’t care😊
Ramen noodles. I don't worry about it now. I used to eat that quite a bit during college. Something quick and easy to cook up. I would throw in a egg.
The four food groups:
1) grew in dirt
2) walked on land
3) swam in water
4) flew through air
All eaten in their natural state warmed by heat.
Nice.
There’s a reason we’ve altered these… they taste better. Don’t get me wrong I love a good veggie and some fresh fruit.. but why can Europeans enjoy pastries and snacks but we cannot.
Also heated isn’t in their natural state, natural state would also be in salted and in seasoned. So dog food.
😂😂😂
Very smart
@@trevntidepends where in Europe. In Romania we used to not add sugar to breads and other products that don't require. In UK, just ham alone has added sugar. It's difficult to buy things with no sugar in them. So even though Romanians eat alot of bread, it won't be as bad as eating alot of bread in UK.
After removing food dye from my kids diet, my autistic son showed major improvements in his behavioral responses and over time we saw improvement in our neurotypical kids too
u were buying bad stuff...food dye..yikes....
He called out everything I ate the week of my period lmaoo
You'd probably have a better period without all these sugars and salts. Lol
I love that you back up your nutritional info and comments with science! I Stan u! Been here for a while and will continue to stayed glued to the channel for more nutritional map thanks for all u do! 😊
Appreciate how Thomas actually showed himself eating some of the naughty foods! He made himself human😅 thanks!
That's what his videos lack. In this particular video, the information may seem great and truly helpful, but the very fact that he is so buffed and so fracking healthy and muscular and good looking and calm and represent the very best of humanity, discards him from being well positioned to do critiques of "unhealthy" food. It shows far too much that he has a more than perfect balanced diet that the casual man woman simply cannot have. In a nutshell, the goal of eliminating these 19 unhealthy food is said as if it was a decision one can take on Monday morning for the rest of his life. These health gurus are all the same: they make everything look easy. As if it was the most casual thing to do. This guy is the epitome of unicorns. He sells dreams, This guy should have balanced his message with his own experience, when he discarded all of this junkfood, if sometimes he fails and eat some. For now, to me he's rather a formidable flesh and blood shell. A superhuman with no heart and soul. Not a model.
@@racineurr.8924I think you’re overthinking this
@@Jcliffs Oh my goodness seriously.
He’s a naughty boy 😇
@@racineurr.8924 take messages from fat dudes then
A note on ramen: the cheap instant ramen is gonna contain the bad ingredients Thomas is referring to. But authentic quality ramen noodles should be fine. As always just read the ingredients on the packaged food you’re buying
We survived college because of Ramen! 😅
Authentic quality like the ones served in Fukuoka, which is known for it. Japanese Rock Star Hyde likes to starve himself before a trip to Fukuoka just so he can get his fill of the food there.
Even the real ramen in places in Japan are not exactly great. There is very little vegetables, it's mostly noodles, a little meat and a lot of high sodium soup
Yeah, rule 0 is *just don't be poor, time poor, disabled, easily stressed, ugly and unable to multitask!*
Totally right. Get the high quality ones, not the cheap ones.
This is groundbreaking i never realised any of these foods were unhealthy, I always assume anything packaged up for me from a large profit making food company has been checked and is healthy to eat regularly!
Wakey wakey
Sarcasm at its finest.👏
Agreed...this one is a no brainer.
Yeah me too 😂😂😂
@@HunterHoltHomes I don't know what you mean?
I’ve been binging on your videos lately and I’m very impressed with all the knowledge you have and how you make it easy to understand for everyone. This is the first time you disappoint me with a video because you named mostly all my favorite snacks 😂 I have to admit, the time in life I got fat was when I moved into grandmas house at 15, and we had Dorito’s with guacamole at least once a week, always ordered a milkshake on our way when going to a Dr’s appointment(how ironic), was definitely hooked on French fries, ate it about 4x a week, had ice cream almost daily as dessert or a treat in the summer, and that’s the thing I have the hardest time with to let go, ramen was my ultimate when going to a night shop or I had this at every school lunch, I loved my BBQ flavored Ribs, and always had M&M’s at the movies. No wonder I became a fat food junkie 😅
they gotta add that to the list, bingeing videos and eating at same time =P
So basically if it’s orgasmic in taste it’s the devil of foods 😭
It's the "devil of foods" for the metabolically unhealthy. If you're metabolically healthy and active enough (a fraction of a fraction of the population, but people like this do exist), then many of the foods on this list will have little impact.
For everyone else, though, yes, it's pretty much deprivation city. Lots of folks talk about how they learn to love the taste of broccoli. I'm sorry, though, but broccoli will never taste as good as ice cream. For me, with the culinary excesses of my youth, if I want to make it past 65, this is the price I have to pay.
@@williampierson4340 Tbh broccoli can get pretty darn good - Brocc salad with cranberries/raisins, red onions and seeds and yoghurt is amazing, so is burnt brocc which is sliced brocc with stalk and all on an oven plate with pumpkin seeds, tiny drizzle of oil and cheese over, also amazing.
Its not the same as really good homemade ice cream from an artisan shop, no, but thats different and something i only enjoy fully if i have it max once a week.
@@barath4545 Don't get me wrong, I love broccoli. But I really love ice cream. And I'm lucky if I can have ice cream once every 3 years. Not that I'm resentful. I had my fun and now I'm paying the price.
Bottom line, though, the healthier the food, the less delicious it's going to be.
It is really "orgasmic" or are you just addicted to sugar and preservatives? Eating enough of that crap literally rewires your brain
@@williampierson4340 It really depends on how the broccoli or anything healthy is cooked and what seasonings are used. Also people forget that you need to be constantly active throughout the day, most people eating that stuff on thomas's list are eating sitting down or doing little work for the day.
You can't just eat healthy foods all the time otherwise you're just going to just binge on bad foods and then gain 20-80 lbs. There needs to be a balance with activity.
I make Nachos with Dorritos...
Probably should stop doing that.
Just use all fat free cheese. You’ll be fine.
Fat free cheese would be the worst , which will probably contain more milk sugars, which is fattening. Skim milk is used to fattening pigs, where the higher percentage of fat actually make you lose weight because it has less milk sugars. Like how ketogenic people use heavy cream or even better butter instead of milk. The low fat high carb(sugar) is causing illness and obesity, not healthy fats. You need healthy fat for every single cell in your body and to regulate hormones effectively.
I've single handedly kept Frito Lay in business by the amount of Doritos I've consumed.
So incredibly thankful for your videos. I've started to change my habits because of them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I remember watching a documentary about this years ago, rats were giving either a high sugar, high fat or combined sugar/fat food, they were given as much as they wanted. the rats on the sugar or fat food ate only what they needed, the ones on the combined sugar/fat ate themselves to death.
For me no food is off the menu, it's all about balance. Foods like lean meat, fruit, vegetables, etc are what you need to build up your body, the foods Tom listed are for your mind. In my opinion for long term success and consistency you need a balance of both types of food.
nah🔥
@@fxkluis5206 Yah.
@@ScottX68000thank you. I'm the same way. Weight and blood pressure falling like crazy since I started moderating. It takes discipline. Eat healthy a large chunk of the time. Exercise. Give yourself areas you can cheat a little. Oh and eat some fiber!
I agree I have a really good diet most of the time but I do enjoy junk food so I have a blow out every now and again 😊 it's all about the balance and only eating shitty food occasionally
Fake food is not good for the mind lol
I enjoyed the fact that none of these are almost ever in my food intake, except a couple of ice creams in summer. As I get older my body rejects them naturally. Also my gut bacteria dont welcome them, so I dont get tempted. I invariably go for the honey jar if I felt needy/pecky, raw natural non commercial honey. I wish I could say the same about resistance training :(
Honey and peanut butter are my downfall.
99% of my childhood snacks are now being rejected by my body except for one, that damn Nutella.
I have been eating a scoop of suger free peanut butter with any and every carb for years to counter that glycemic spike. I do this with high-fiber or suger cereals, with fruit, with pancakes or waffles, ice cream, cakes. pies. Pretty much everything. My blood work is pretty darn solid at 57 years of age.☺
Not just sugar free (added sugar isn't even a thing I've seen in PB in the UK) but OIL free. It's actually difficult to find a PB product in the UK that ISN'T 100% peanut. I have to look at the (let's be honest) US style PB like SunPat, that has piles of extra crap in it, like Palm Oil and other crap.
@@Ray.Norrishyou know peanut butter contains peanut oil right? Or you mean added oil?
@@KJ-yises Yea, I mean palm oil - specifically.
I like knowing which foods to avoid, in conjunction with my workouts. Most of these foods I'd quit eating several years ago. Thankfully. I also found froot loops yukky as a kid. On my way to the farmer's market this past Sunday, I stopped to get cash from the ATM at a CVS. The machine was down and so I bought a kit kat bar in to get cashback. On the way out of the store, I thought I should give this bar to the security guy. I DIDN'T so Monday dinking around the house, got munchy. So I decided to treat myself, after quitting processed sugar. Let me tell you all I did was treat myself badly. When I was eating it my body was rejecting it. There's a ritual with eating unhealthy foods, even if you don't really want it. There are memories attached. I am just feeling better today. Drank fresh ginger tea and lots of water. The thing about my body is that once I give it what it NEEDS, it punishes me for not being consistent. I get that sometimes I will eat not necessarily healthy stuff. But for me the punishment is two fold. First, I no longer enjoy it like I once did. Secondly the physical discomfort. Work in progress.
I’m feeling awful after sushi and eating a whole loaf of banana bread that my mom made for me. I guess because I eat so healthy whenever I eat. Crap I just feel awful for a couple days. I feel too having to go running, and the sushi made me starving for some reason is continue to eat poorly throughout the day. Which I never do.
The "Salt, Sugar, Fat" book really opens your eyes to how this stuff is engineered to get you to consume as much as humanly possible. Make you think of yourself as a cog in a money making machine.
One thing to keep in mind about dark chocolate is that SO much of it is contaminated with unsafe levels (who am I kidding - ALL levels are unsafe) of cadmium and lead. In fact, I used to eat dark chocolate and pure cacao nearly every day and, incidentally, my own cadmium levels (from a hair test) were higher than any other heavy metal - so have actually cut it out almost entirely as a result. Sadly, even organic and/or fair trade aren't much better, so, to me, the benefits aren't even worth the risk.
I just do a spirulina powder detox every once in a while. Tastes like garbage because it’s algea but it detoxes your body of heavy metals
So it really should be named Cadmium instead of Cadbury
The key words are "nearly every day"...two bars of chocolate per week i dont think will rise your cadmium...:)
Just read about this in food safety news. Chocolate industries response was that the levels were within acceptable limits.
It sounds like having self control and not over indulging is the key. Things can be taken too far on both ends, health and junk food. Being fat is definitely not the way but some fat is needed in a survival situation so that your body has some reserves. Being shredded looks great and feels great, but that does not negate the fact that it is not healthy from a survival standpoint to have 10% body fat. 20% to 25% body fat is the limit though. All about balance.
Exactly!!!
Thomas couldn't agree with more man! Full of insightful knowledge as always!
I thoroughly appreciate the fact that you cite actual scientific articles and studies
Thanks for the great information! It's encouraging and super helpful 😊
I’m actually curious about acrylamide. I love some crispy roasted veggies alongside my well seared steak. A video on this going into the deets would be great. Thanks Thomas!
can’t believe i’m not dead from all this stuff i’ve eaten 🤦🏻♂️
Slow death is still death... you just have the benefit to watching the train wreck in slow motion.
@@CD-vb9fi The train has stopped. And is going the other direction. 👍🏻
@@vincec727 Good to hear.... I have almost stopped my train... it's in a tug of war. I completely avoid just about everything here, wife even makes home made mayo so we can avoid all the trash in store bought... but I am still fighting my sweet tooth. I don't do skittles but I still do chocolate covered peanuts and usually one 12 ounce soda a day, sometimes I skip a day. And every once in a great while... on holidays like Easter and Halloween... chocolate covered marshmallows....
@@CD-vb9fi It’s tuff. But i was just barely prediabetic (for a long time) But in great shape so doctors never cared. I was just eating too much period. Portions. sugar and carbs.
@@vincec727 Thank fully I am not pre-diabetic... my A1C was 5.1 a couple of years ago but I have never tested my insulin resistance and I have been learning that it would be far better to test for that than to wait for A1C to tell you something is wrong... and I am pretty sure I would show negative signs on that test. I am "mostly" okay with proportions as I usually do OMAD so my 1 can of soda and my meal go down around lunch time. Occasionally I will want an evening snack which is usually hard boiled egg... but I still do too much "snacking" here and there to be really consistent... which is why I think I am still playing tug of war. My diet as far as main meals are concerned are pretty healthy... it's just my soda and snacking that keeps me off the wagon.
Thank you for the encouragement, it is good to hear that folks are overcoming these things and giving others hope!
All the joyful foods are the worst for us! Onion rings are my favorite junk food of all time! The crunch of the breading combined with that sweet onion flavor especially if vidalia onions are used is just the most euphoric experience. Onion rings are my "drug" of choice!
Make them home made use coconut oil refined for no conut taste
Watched this while eating my favorite Korean Shin cup noodles😊.
Same 😂
For all the UK followers... ramen is also the same as Supernoodles and Pot Noodles
The way Thomas describes some of these foods and their effects lets you know he knows intimately how they can become addictive and palette pleasing especially when he talked about nachos. :)
Peanut butter and jelly or peanut butter with anything is my downfall.
@@HH-gv8mx there is peanut butter with no sugar
@@olakeacev5023 yea I eat Nuttzo. It has six nuts and seed, butter, and peanuts only 2 g of sugar. It’s the calories that kill me. Because I also eat a lot of raw almonds and avocados. All of these are very high in calories.
@@HH-gv8mx Do you eat a lot of carbs
For me it’s any combination of pasta, marinara, and beef/pork. Now that’s the most terrible thing for you especially if everything is nice quality but pasta excites my brain like nothing else. It is very hard for me to stop if I ever got a taste..
The point about fat and sugar not naturally occurring together is super interesting and one I never really thought about. Puts things into perspective.
🚬👴🏿🥃SOOO YOURE 3,000 POUNDS OR WATT?
I never needed school.. I needed UA-cam channel like these 😅
Stop with this butt kissing
Well, colleges and universities are closing.
@@jnooney8225 the future is here 🦾🤖
Smart ass. Most people graduate high school and college and still don’t know how to basically feed themselves. That’s the real joke.
It’s saddening what they’re serving in schools… even worse hospitals are serving crap food as well.
I’m really picky about hot dogs and sausages - definitely don’t buy at say Safeway, but have found some local butchers that make 100% meat ones without nitrates and chemicals. Even when I used to organize huge BBQs at my university we served one that was 100% beef hot dog. Had lots of healthy toppings. Tried to do organic too where we could. Free for students, we asked staff and faculty to donate, which they always did.
Hi Thomas… can you do a video on protein bars? My favorite are the Think high protein bars, but after watching this, I’m wondering if there even any good!
No protein bar is "good". Some are a lot better than others, but only compared to other protein bars.
None of those things are good they're garbage can watch Dr Mandel but they're very easy to make
Lots of these junk foods have alternatives that are easy to find. I use olive oil based mayo (yes there still is seed oil in it but it’s better), hot dogs, natural doritos etc. If you spend sometime reading labels and are willing to pay extra, you can find “junk food” that is somewhat healthy and tastes pretty good.
That defeats the purpose of buying it, because the inflammatory seed oil is what you want to avoid.. Chosen foods/ primal kitchen has only unrefined Avocado oil and no extra junk..
@@yeslia2010Godis Great if I was talking about avocado oil, but I was talking about junk food alternatives and mayonnaise. Do those companies make an avocado mayo? That’s would be pertinent to my comment.
@fbomb7184 Ah hello, yes they make a pure avocado oil mayo. That's why the comment was pertinent..
Most seed oil hate appears to be BS, according to actual doctors who aren't pushing crap on social media. @@yeslia2010Godis
I like how you are genuinely trying to help people with all your hard work. Thank you!
Unknown Comedian: "French fries aren't vegetables. They're ketchup delivery systems."
Instead of Ramen, just use the word “instant noodle” bc Ramen you can make it from scratch.
And I love instant noodle and accept if I ever get sick bc of it 😆.
I eat 8-9 out of this list in moderation except instant noodle. But I’m trying to cut it down. Rn it’s so far so good.
I just checked all my Korean ramen packages, no TBHQ. Ramen is dried noodles, usually precooked in oils. Not the healthiest, but once in awhile is fine
I always drop an egg into the soup and a few piece of broccoli. My rule of thumb is to never just have processed food without combining natural foods with it.
Once in while here too , but i ditch the soup powder that comes with it .
Agreed
omg same! i thought i was a weirdo for doing that...@@MERCURYSUNSET
Thanks Thomas. Great stuff as usual. I watched you video on nuts a few days ago. Awesome video. Could you possibly do one on olives. So many different types and jars of olives to choose from on the Super market shelves. Please help. Which types of olives are the best. Any that should be avoided or that are not "thomas approved"
For dark chocolate I now just consume baking chocolate. One ingredient- unsweetened chocolate. Also considerably cheaper than any other form because it isn't marketed as a snack 😂
When I crave chocolate. I buy Anthony's organic coco poweder but a tablespoon into warm whole organic milk boil until chocolate dissolves be careful it will spill over the pan if it gets too hot. Add a little monk fruit. Craving fixed
He needs to do a video on foods that taste good but are also good for you.
Mayonnaise really surprised me. Given, most brands are full of crap, but Thomas has talked about good quality mayonnaise being a super food many times. I eat my homemade garlic mayo on my cooked eggs every morning, so I think I am dodging the problems he described herein.
Homemade mayonnaise is on another level
Primal Kitchen still makes good mayo. But a lot of their products in general have become lesser quality over time. Case in point: their Ranch dressing which now contains potato starch as an ingredient. It never used to have that.
Homemade garlic Mayo sounds phenomenal! Care to share the recipe?
Nearly all grocery store mayo has canola oil near the top of the ingredient list. Homemade mayo is probably healthy but high calorie.
@@courtneyheney2886 1) Equipment
-A widemouth jar, at least 24 oz. I use old jelly jars with tight-fitting lids.
-An immersion mixer. I use the one below.
-An way to drizzle the oil in while you're mixing. I use a squirt bottle I got from the $ store
2) Ingredients (organic is best)
2 lg eggs - room temp
1 tsp pink Himalayan salt
2 tsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
OPTIONAL - 2-4 large cloves of garlic sliced (let sit 15 mins before using for max health benefits)
around 2 cups of EVOO
3) Process
-Combine all ingredients except EVOO in the jar
-Start mixing on the highest speed
-Slowly drizzle or squirt small amounts of oil in as you are mixing
-- Tiny amounts at first. As it emulsifies you can add more, faster
-- Keep going until all the oil is emulsified
i always learn something via your content, keep pumping contents such as these!
the only one that's a problem for me is Ramen. Maan they are sooo practical! Also they're an amazing means to a high protein meal. I break 3 eggs in the pan while it's boiling (I also use the little seasoning while still on the boiling water so I don't ingest most of it) and throw some vegetables and a piece of meat as well. If feels like a very filling complete meal.
ps: forgot to say that I always break the ramen in half, I don't eat the entire package because the other stuff I put in are already very filling, so I'm always eating halfs of ramen.
Maybe home made ramen ?
Ramyeon with eggs while boiling? Yum... 😋😋😋
Breaking the ramen in half and adding more eggs or meat is a good strategy. Also put just half the soup powder and add some sea salt or butter or pepper to flavor. Chopped onions or garlic also work great.
For me whether i buy the cheap ramen or the expensive ramen i throw away all the flavor packets minus the vegetables. I add my own such as organic lime, a pinch of salt and pepper, hot sauce, Cilantro and a egg or steak on top. Most people when they eat top ramen they add all the synthetic packets and microwave it which is really toxic. It's ok to eat ramen as longest you substitute the flavor packets and boil the water&ramen
I eat Ramen too and mix in in with veggies or tuna . As for the soup powder .....hell no . I ditch that .
Man said hot dogs and hackles instantly raised. Then clarified that the all beef franks from better companies are okay and instant calm.
20 years ago I would also use protein shake as milk for my cereal. Plus a spoon of instant cofee. Good to hear some people had the same idea :)
I don't know i once only ate milk and egg only for a while like a few weeks. I feel a lot cleaner and more how could i say more light. I think it is not bad to have only milk and egg only once in a while.
Hold on that's instant noodles. Not ramen
Ramen are instant noodles, aren't they?
@@user-ks4bi7ik7sno authentic ramen is not an instant noodle.
I loved the references to peer reviewed papers. Very interesting and science based information. Subscribed!
19 Most Unhealthy Foods also known as 19 Best Tasting Foods
I "disagree"... I don't find many of these to be very tasty. Yes, I have eaten skittles and they are okay, but I would not rank them on the same level as a buttery baked chicken or chicken tikka masala. Or a nice medium rare steak gently seasoned.
bruh, I straight up enjoy half of these, I'm dead!
Thank you for sharing useful information! I've learned about many unhealthy foods to avoid. Do you have any suggestions for healthier alternatives?
I hadn't had Fruit Loops in years and randomly decided to try a bowl one day. Felt horrible for the entire day afterwards. It has a ton of dyes in them that have very negative short and long-term effects so I avoid them all together.
About a month ago I had a bowl of Froot Loops for the first time in probably 30 years. I felt fine 🤷
@@Redfoot138 I actively avoided most sugar and all food dyes prior to eating them, so that may have been the difference between our outcomes.
@@Acoto I'm not much of a "clean" eater but since March of 2022 I have been trying to lose weight (my goal is to drop 100 pounds total and I'm down 82 so far).
I ran a 10k in April and then went on vacation the following week. I threw out my diet while on vacation and had been indulging in crappy food before eating that bowl, part of the hotel free breakfast-- so probably off-brand Froot Loops. Froot Loops have never been one of my favorites out of the sugar cereals and, not necessarily because of this video, I'll probably never have them again.
From this list, my weak spots would be mayo, M&M's, and milk shakes. But really only mayo because milk shakes and M&M's are rare "cheats" in my diet. I try to do light mayo or put just a low amount of regular on whatever I'm eating.
I like Thomas on a personal level and some of his content but I think videos like this one are overly alarmist and click-baity. My current favorite fitness UA-camr is Biolayne, who Thomas mentions. Thomas and Layne have differing approaches to nutrition and weight loss. The two have a few collaboration videos and are great watches in having a civil discourse (with two very different philosophies) about nutrition and health.
You felt bad because that cereal has alot of sugar and preservatives.Funny story...US soilders would give kids MREs in IRAQ.Well,the parents would throw them out onto the streets because their children would get sick.Well,the kids digestive system wasn't use to high sugar and preservatives,so they would vomit and have dirarea.
Scared of a bowl of cereal huh
No matter how bad it is xtra Spicy Ramen with an egg whipped in will always be one of my favorite cheat foods. Soooooo good.
What if you make your own ice cream with raw cream. eggs and honey? Is it the same?
Really enjoyed this one. Great information
This was very informative, thank you.
Ramen is not junk food, it is life force! Naruto ate it and became the strongest shinobi!
🍥🍃😂
Instant Noodles are an insult to Traditional Ramen
😂😂
LOL
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great, just made me a list of what to eat my next cheat day!
💀💀💀
I never use the word "cheat ". I call it a Treat Day. (Love my donut after Mass on Sundays).
THANKYOU for your research, this is helpful.
Fantastic simple video. Two thumbs up.
I love all these foods
I used to live on Ramen. At the time I spent most of my time working and by the time rent and utilities were paid I had to put groceries on a credit card.
I didn't have the time, energy or money to do more than make ramen and maybe some chicken to throw in it. If you have so little options that you can't switch out the flavor packet it comes with with actual seasonings, then never use more than half the packet.
I'm just not giving up french fries or hot dogs. Losing weight isn't worth cutting out all the foods that are actually enjoyable.
They say one hot dog takes 30 minutes off your life. I say shut up and hand me another. You're not going to impact your diet all that much with two hot dogs twice a week.
That being said I can't stand mayo. I don't understand how people proudly proclaim how much they like it and actively try to get me to eat it. It's gross.
Thanks for this list all yummy stuff ❤
Can you please advice on which brands are clean? everything i cone across has flavorung vegtabke seed oiks etc?
im now 5 months into a low carb / High protein diet and i feel like i dont need junk food anymore... even after 1 cheat mal per week i just feel bad... last week we went out for all you can eat sushi and we felt like trash nearly 2 days long..
yea those foods still taste amazing, but the problem for me is how your body reacts afterwards, especially when you are like me and tend to overeat when its tastes good.
I eat an ounce of 90% cacao dark chocolate everyday. It's keeps the donuts and pop tarts away.
All you can eat sushi is lousy. Haven't you tried omakase? Btw, sushi isn't junk food. Omakase has three appetizers (Chawanmushi, Hokkaido Scallop, Shabu-shabu fish), 12 pieces made by the chef (sea bream, barracuda, fatty tuna, etc.), and a dessert (a cube of a creme brulee like dessert or a pudding? Can't tell). Very satisfying. Nothing trashy about the feeling after going to omakase. Never felt like trash after omakase.
I allow myself one cheat meal a week and the diarrhea and agonizing cramps afterwards feel like punishment.
@@mariatolentino4516 sushi is full of rice, overeat it the way he said he did and Im sure you are having a bad day the next day.
@@imjoeimjoe not omakase. I never feel lousy after omakase. Have you ever been to omakase? The rice is of a different quality. Even the types of fish served are not your regular types. Omakase is very different, that's why it's pricey. Try $135 to $150 for the set and that doesn't even include the drinks (my son takes the sake pairing, I take the non-alcoholic ume). And after the full set of three appetizers, twelve pieces and a dessert, I still managed to go down to a 19.7 BMI at 101 lbs.
This video is great. I was happy to see we don't eat any of these foods on the regular and some not at all. Interesting correlation between eating these goods and desiring more. The food industry knows how to maximize this. The fat/salt/sugar triangle. I've always wondered if these people feed their products to their own children.
Thanks for the breakdown!
Fun Fact: All the food you SHOULD be eating is always laid out along the outside walls of the supermarket. Dairy, meats, wholegrains, produce. Literally every supermarket layout follows this convention. 95% of the stuff you find in the aisles is death food.
you'd be surprised how many ingredients beyond/impossible "meat" shares with doritos
This just isn’t true at all. Beyond Burger ingredients are as follows: water, pea protein, expeller-pressed canola oil, refined coconut oil, rice protein, natural flavors, dried yeast, cocoa butter and methylcellulose; it also contains less than 1% of potato starch, salt, potassium chloride, beet juice color, apple extract, pomegranate concentrate, sunflower lecithin, vinegar, lemon juice concentrate.
Doritos: Corn, Vegetable Oil (Corn, Canola, And/or Sunflower Oil), Maltodextrin (Made From Corn), Salt, Cheddar Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Whey, Monosodium Glutamate, Buttermilk, Romano Cheese (Part-skim Cow's Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Whey Protein Concentrate, Onion Powder, Corn Flour, Natural And Artificial Flavor, Dextrose, Tomato Powder, Lactose, Spices, Artificial Color (Yellow 6, Yellow 5, And Red 40), Lactic Acid, Citric Acid, Sugar, Garlic Powder, Skim Milk, Red And Green Bell Pepper Powder, Disodium Inosinate, And Disodium Guanylate.
The natural flavour in the fake meat is made from the roots of soy. It gives the fake blood. Approved on a rat study where the best you can say is the rats did not die. But close to 30 differences from the control group during bloodwork and autopsy.
The Pea protein is made in China using a chemical banned everywhere else in the world.
The ingredients are different, but both are garbage.
Even if it doesn't share the same ingredients beyond and impossible are vegan junk food.
I make my own milkshake from organic vanilla ice cream that has five ingredients and coconut milk every month. I find the PC brand here in Canada has vanilla ice cream that's less sweet than Häagen-Dazs and Organic Meadow. I used a whole vanilla bean to make it in the blender the other day. I eat dairy and eggshells to counter oxalates and cook in organic butter that's 84% BF and A2 grass-fed. It's expensive but still less expensive than the butters from France. It's helping me so far with the oxalate issue and my brain is clear. I avoid the oxalate foods in general so, the pain has greatly subsided. I don't like these highly processed foods in the first place. They deplete me nutritionally. If my brain can't think properly, the food I've eaten is the culprit. I make my own gluten-free ramen using justonecookbook's recipe and, wellness mama's avocado mayonnaise and the recipe from vitamix. I also make my own electrolyte drink to get started everyday. When I have the ingredients and the canister frozen, I also make my own ice cream. It takes planning to make it because my ice cream container needs to be frozen first so, for milkshakes, I buy the ice cream for when I will make it.
I didn’t read the video title but after watching I see it’s a video on my favorite foods list
Great video. It's awful how bad these processed foods are. I gave up all the bad stuff 50 days ago. I feel so much better.
I've survived on top ramen and popcorn for a year and a half in college, only thing i noticed was my stomach shrunk when I was able to eat normal food.
For everyone who eats hot dogs regularly I have a true story... For about 10 years my dad ate 1 or 2 hotdogs.... He got cancer, he was the first person in our family history to get the disease... Luckily treatment worked for him..
Doritos and white chocolate are the ones that light up my brain the most. Don't do the white chocolate anymore but sometimes i cant resist fried corn chips.
Mayonaise is fine as long as you make it yourself. If u make it yourself its only oil, eggs and mustard or vinegar. Rpocessed mayo is loaded with sugars and preservatives
He basically in the furst part described why combined french fries and a shake at In n Out or elsewhere is the worst.
After I read the nutrition info on Shakes at In n Out, I'm never ordering them again unless I am burning insane amounts of calories that day or haven't eaten anything, getting only 1 meal.
I've started eating 100% dark chocolate (found with the baking supplies not the candy area of a store) and it certainly doesn't have the sweetness of sugar but it does satisfy my choco craving and there are zero additives because it is 100% cacao.
i prefer cacao powder and put it in milk
Helpful list for building proactive dietary habits.
Thank you, I for one appreciate the work you do for us.
I wanna see Thomas tell these things to Nikocado Avocado to his face and see both their reactions.
I am lucky I only got up to 250lbs cuz I used to be a vegetarian that lived off of basically this list …thank god for keto and IF and VShred…I mean Thomas Delauer 😅
Lol. I see what you did there.
Learning to make vegetarian food is a gradual process. Diving straight into it and living on junk food isn't the way to go!
Use vinegar in place for some salt uses. 50/50. Or 80/10. Vinegar/Salt.
The thing about salt (per Dr. Rick Johnson) is less about the volume and more about the concentration: a big influx of salt actually prompts the body to manufacture fructose, which is a storage sugar (shuttles energy into fat). You can ameliorate the effect by drinking a lot of water before and with the salty food. Just one reason why beer and salty food are a one-two punch to your system.
Ain't no way I'm ever gonna cut out fries, ice cream, or mayo. I make my own of all 3 which is actually not too bad if you are using high quality organic ingredients.
Get a whole potato slice them into fries. Fry them in avacado oil and put pink hamilayan salt. I eat this when I crave chips
Yeah so much of the problem is the low quality ingredients that mass production uses and their crazy ultra processed cooking methods.
@@ceciliaabdalla4954Those are some gormet sounding fries
I honestly think some of the foods mentioned in the video can be enjoyed on moderation. E.g ice cream, milkshake, mayo and ramen. I think cutting these out completely is just taking the fun out of enjoying food.
Wow this video was a real eye opener for me. I’m 5’2” & 118 lbs. I would be so much healthier if I would stop eating this stuff. I only eat them in moderation like once or twice a month. Even that is a lot. I agree with you 100% it’s still not healthy choices. Fruit Loops, Krispy Crème are my favorites they taste so good. I love nachos with extra cheese. M&M’s with peanuts are so yummy. So how do we determine if it’s fake dark chocolate. I buy the Hersheys dark chocolate. Omg I just noticed the first ingredient is SUGAR 😢. I’m not eating them anymore. You are in amazing shape and thank you so much for educating us.
Despite what he says, it’s okay to occasionally have these foods. Is health worth happiness?
@@trevnti you’re right! I’m going to have my monthly Krispy Kreme donut today haha 😂. We only live once 😂
@@EVEE_Rose-3 Go for 1 hour walk everyday if you can, while eating as you do now, you will see changes, you will feel better too.
You could have just said:
1. Don't eat anything tasty.
If you want to make people thing losing weight is impossible, you are doing a great job.
I ate lots of ramen when I was dumb and poor. I'm convinced it nearly killed me.
“If you MUST have Frootloops!” Frankenfoods 👹
Have you seen the new report on dark chocolate.? Apparently if finding lots of cadmium and lead in the products. Apparently it depends on where the ingredients are sourced from and then where they are prepared. Very interesting
If u are eating just two squares of 95 percent or 100 percent once or twice a week as u should, I can't see harm. The food regulators would have to remove it if levels were danger to public
I make my own ice cream, with cream, full-fat dried milk, low-fat milk powder, cane sugar, in a counter-top machine. 3 cups cream, 1 cup reconstituted full-fat milk, a half cup milk powder, a half cup of sugar yield 4 servings, my limit for the week. Each serving is prepared with a liberal squirt of barley malt syrup, a dash of Torani Milano chocolate syrup, and 5 or 6 glugs from the Jot bottle (thank-you, Thomas, for the recommendation!); I'll add half a scoop of protein powder for thickening, and a dash of water, else nothing will spin in the blender. On the days I have it, I'll have it around 9 PM--but I figure it's not too bad since I don't go to bed 'till after 3 AM. My retirement schedule allows me to be awake during my favorite part of the day: 1 -- 3 AM. When I first started in with this most delectable treat, I had it every day. But my weight started very gently climbing. Four times a week, though, keeps the weight even from week to week. I weigh every day, so I'm pretty sure my little malt is good for a 0.2 lb gain. I don't eat ANY of the other items on the list. Thomas mentioned cheese, but it's not on the list; I'll eat 2 -- 3 slices per day with my beef and bread. But I've achieved a certain equilibrium for the first time, so I hesitate to change anything. I don't see giving up my coffee malt for anything. And I'm not even a coffee drinker! hahahaha
Most of these foods no longer in my radar. That said great list I wrote down everything , so I can make better choices while traveling. Love you and your content. 3 year follower. SO inspiring and helpful!
in other words.......dont enjoy life you might live longer
*enjoy life by having self-control
I try to eat healthy while intermittent fasting but I must confess my weakness is putting Sweet Baby Ray's sauce on my chicken or turkey. It's about a few tablespoons worth. I hope I'm not overdoing it.
A wise internet user once said, if you replaced all those tasty snacks in your diet for some fruit, you can actually lose up to 90% of the little joy you have left in your life.
