While some foods are healthier than others, there is no such thing as a “bad” food. Different foods can serve different purposes, but they are all providing us with energy and nutrients that our body needs. For example, pizza contains nutrients such as carbohydrates, protein, fat, calcium, and others depending on the toppings. A salad with grilled chicken and dressing contains nutrients such as protein, carbohydrates, fat, fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, and more. People tend to think of fast food as being unhealthy because there are often many choices that have been fried and historically the portions tend to be “super” sized.
