     @arstechnica can't agree with this statement at all: "“You cannot throw the baby out with the bathwater and decide that you’re going to just dump everything” that’s ultraprocessed, says Ciarán Forde, a sensory science and eating behavior researcher at Wageningen University in the Netherlands".

     I did, and I never looked back, part from losing 14kg of weight many years back. Humans survive pretty well on whole foods that came from actual plants and animals.
