I am mostly playing devils advocate with OP tbh. Olive oil is linked to heart health benefits, but 99% of americans could benefit from far less calorie-dense oil, not more. Healthy is highly dependent on context
And yes I agree ultra-processed foods are generally bad
Ah. Thanks for the recommendation. I looked it up and the noun definition was “a substance obtained by a chemical process or producing a chemical effect”. So things like sucrose in a banana, protein in eggs, and even fiber in vegetables are all chemical.
I understand that you’re trying to make the point that Nutella is not healthy, and I genuinely think you can make an effective argument for that (in fact, I agree with you!). In particular, I think you can argue with evidence-based arguments. However, do you think accusing Nutella of being made of chemicals (when practically everything in this universe —including healthy food— is made of chemicals) is the best way of making an evidence-based argument?
Substitute with Nutella and marshmallows and we’re good!
My wife is very allergic to nuts and bananas, so yeah, she would need the substitute version.
so NUTella doesn’t have nuts in it?
Damn. You name two unhealthy things. Just to defeat the purpose. You people 🤢
How is seed butter any healthier than nutella? The calories are about the same, you just swapped out a few carbs for fats.
Not op, but there are many ways to measure nutrition. Similarly, there are many definitions of “healthy”.
That said, processed sugar is rarely regarded as healthy or nutritious.
ETA: Related, the makers of Nutella were sued for claiming it was healthy.

Nutella is made of chemicals and sugar and is an ultra processed food.
Just to understand better what you’re saying, what does the word “chemical” mean?
Use a dictionary
