More than half of Americans' calorie intake is from ultra-processed foods, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Not to mention this says 55% of their calories. If you eat salad for lunch four days a week, and the fifth day you eat a hot dog, you just got 55%+ of your calories from ultra processed foods.
And that’s salad without dressing. So not even realistic.
I’m sure it’s worth it to try to do better, but honestly 55% doesn’t sound that bad to me.
