    And that’s salad without dressing. So not even realistic.

    Most dressings are ultra-processed foods as well.

      Yes, that’s what I meant. They’d most likely be getting much higher than 55% of their calories from ultra processed foods.

      A better example might have just been to say that a simple garden salad with a light Italian dressing is 60% “ultra processed” if you go by the calories.

        Yeah, whole food diet sounds great, until someone actually tries to do it - then they see how pervasive industrial food is.

        Don’t get me wrong - its a great health idea to do a whole food diet, but it’s not as easy as it sounds.
