I think the zeitgeist would agree that Pizza isn’t healthy, it’s a junk food
What is a pizza?
- Bread
- Cheese
- Topping (pepperoni)
- Tomato Sauce
By weight bread is the largest component of pizza.
So which part of this makes it a junk food?
Carnivores would say the Cheese and Meat is fine, and the bread and sauce are making it a junk food
What would have to change on a pizza to make it “healthy”?
The junk food status of a pizza is greater than the sum of it’s parts, there is nothing you can do to make it healthy while still calling it pizza.
I’m on the “bread is life” team.
It is delicious! Is Pizza just a fancy loaf of bread? Or flat of bread? I’m not up to date on the technical bread language
Pizza is an open faced sandwich.
If we are following the cube rule: It’s toast
It’s broiled, it’s an open faced melt.
The main problem is that it’s low on nutrients overall
It’s also mostly bread which is just carb heavyNot a dietarian, but I suppose the “junkiness” is determined by the percentage of some types of fats. Less “bad” lard – healthier food.
If we remove the meat… we get something like broccoli pizza
This is still a junk food - right?
