they probably wouldn't even know where it came from. They wouldn't even be able to tell you just by looking at it. Like, oh, I know that that is from potatoes. They would be like, what is that? That would be something that would be ultra processed foods. Ultra processed foods are made with a bunch of ingredients that you would not normally have in your kitchen.

There are a bunch of ingredients that you find in factories. And my argument and the whole reason that I started Real Foodology, my whole thing was when I came up with that name 14 years ago is I sat down and I thought, what's gonna stand the test of time when it comes to nutrition and health? We always need to be coming back to eating real food.

And that has been the basis of my entire business and my message is that we need to be getting back to eating real food. And right now, the majority of our calories are coming from these ultra-processed foods.

Yeah. So I largely believe that most of this stuff started with good intention. The problem is that now that we have the data and the science and we know that these chemicals and certain processing things that we're doing with our food, we now know that they are harming people. And now it is to the point where it is becoming sinister, in my opinion. But I don't think it started out that way.

largely a lot of what we're dealing with now, which is an industrialization of our food system, was started because of the war. After the war, there was famine. Our president was genuinely concerned about getting enough food to people, having it be cheap, accessible, fast.
