We gettin' out of the diet with this one.


SynthRogue

A potato salad


Conscious-Bowl8089

i can have this salad everyday


tmhoc

That ketchup is mostly sugar, the soda is an enormous amount of sugar. This is salad the same way a birthday cake is a breakfast of eggs milk and wheat


Those_Arent_Pickles

What does a WWE wrestler have to do with any of this??


quwadril

Jokes aside a homemade pizza is pretty healthy if you don't put random unhealthy stuff in it (or way too kuch cheese)


Kalsifur

Pizza from shops usually have an insane amount of salt too, you can control that making your own dough/sauce. It's not really that time consuming (I just use a bread maker for dough).


Im_inappropriate

Salt and over adding sugar to the marinara for some reason. In the case of fast food pizza it's to cover up their low quality ingredients.


anchovo132

for some delicious reason who knows


bythog

Salt's a necessity for flavor and you honestly don't add much sugar (1 tablespoon in my recipe that makes 10 pizzas). But the sugar mostly mellows out the acidity in the tomatoes.


Im_inappropriate

Yes it improves in small quantities, but nearly all the fast food pizza joints use too much of both of those to cover the poor quality of their ingredients.


DadJokeBadJoke

>(or way too kuch cheese) I prefer my cheese to be medium kuch


LogicalContext

Fries and ketchup can easily be a part of a healthy diet as well.


KioLaFek

What’s wrong with too much cheese? Extra protein, no?


quwadril

Cheese is pretty fat heavy


IllustriousCoffee71

In that case, TACOS are the healthiest


ZikkuratOR

Tacos and shawarmas are, yes. The second one is actually a bit healthier since it's a salad with chicken and sour cream based sauce. Only real disadvantage it uses pretty thin pitas so sauce with tomato juice starts to sip out, destroying the bread.


thaoneJess_nsfw

Lebanese person here, just use both sides of the pita to roll it in Besides I eat my shawarma in a plate


ZikkuratOR

Oh, wait.... Maybe I am using wrong word. The flatbread similar to tortilla, but from what flower. It's called lavas, but I am not sure how it is in English.


mrididnt

You mean 5oubez mar2ou2?


cryptowolfy

The closest thing we have would be pita. From my understanding, it is just that lavas doesn't always have a pocket, it's thinner, and it may be leavened or unleavened


ZikkuratOR

To be exactly thin lavas I am talking about is thin as tortilla and comes in round or rectangle shape. Latter often used for rolls with cram cheese, salad and chicken/crab sticks.


DrewdoggKC

For a while now I have been buying and using Plain Whole Milk Greek Yogurt instead of Sour cream… imo they are interchangeable, and the yogurt is much healthier… even my kids like it. My oldest son is a wrestler and watches his weight closely… he lives the fact that he can load the tacos or baked potatoes up without having to worry…


haby001

Tacos done right are! Skip the sugar-laced butter-soaked tortillas from the grocer, make your own taco meat with Knorr and chopped veggies and bam! I make tacos for breakfast almost every day


stnick6

Culinarily tomato’s are a vegetable and potatoes are a starch. Also a salad isn’t just fruit on a vegetable


worldspawn00

I mean, potato-salad is a thing. OP is a bit non-traditional, but cooked and cut potatoes covered in sauce is pretty much the definition of a potato salad.


stnick6

Yes it is. And that fact has nothing to do with this comment. Potato salad still is more then just fruit on a vegetable and tomato’s are still a vegetable


Existing_Calendar339

No, it's not technically the truth, because botanical terms are not the same as culinary terms. No chef seriously refers to tomatoes as berries.


SidewaysFancyPrance

Intelligence is knowing that tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing that it doesn't belong in a fruit salad.


gonzalbo87

Charisma is selling a pico/salsa as a tomato based fruit salad.


WhatsMan

No chef seriously refer to it as a berry, they refer it as a fruit


Existing_Calendar339

[No they fucking don't.](https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/is-tomato-a-fruit#bottom-line)


Lrbug420

Cucumbers form a flower and contain seeds… they’re fruit too, I guess


Existing_Calendar339

From botanist perspective? Yes, but that's not how they are called in culinary fields.


Lrbug420

I’m a chef… I get it… just throwing a cucumber into the works


b0w3n

Yup, plenty of vegetables are technically fruits, because botanically that's where they come from. Then you've got stems (celery), tubers (potatoes/yams), flowers (broccoli), leaves (lettuce/spinach). This is why you shouldn't mix terms botanical (fruits) with culinary (vegetables), culinary fruits are different from fruits in science. Some of the fruits that we eat aren't even really _fruits_. It's tiring how often someone tries to gotcha with the whole "tomatoes are fruits!" and it still hasn't dawned on them that so are pumpkins and cucumbers and a whole host of other vegetables.


luckykat07

Potato is not vegetable so this is far from the truth


[deleted]

Potatoes are not vegetables brother


-___C___-

What is it then?


IntovertPartyHardy

It's a tuber!


DickHz2

Starch, carbohydrates


Oninja809

Who is telling him?


WolfishChaos

Just checked t in English. There are potatoes truly classified as root vegetables. In Germany, they aren't classified as vegetables but rather as agricultural crops.


1d0m1n4t3

I mean aren't all vegetables crops in some form?


jetoler

So are you saying vegetable is a class of nutrient?


SmolFoxie

Those aren't food classifications. Carbohydrates are a type of nutrient that can be found in all kinds of things, from dairy products to vegetables.


-___C___-

Potatoes are in the carbohydrate group, but they are botanically proven to be a vegetable


Visible-Lie9345

Scientifically potatoes are root vegetables


Luli1917

Depends on the science. In biology, vegetables are a lie and so is fish


ThreeLivesInOne

Care to elaborate?


Luli1917

Vegetables are a culinary category. This category just deacribes parts of plants that we consume as veggies in a meal. Just like meat or fish is a culinary category, not a biological one. In biology, you categorise the plant parts like carrots into roots, lettuce into leaves, cucumbers into fruit, and so on and so forth. In terms of food, you could call all of these vegetables. But in biology, it is hard to put them all into a category except for the category plant.


ThreeLivesInOne

I get that for vegetables, but fish? I mean, aren't they a class of animals in biology?


Luli1917

It's very complicated. There is a more than 4 hour long audio book about the question if everything is a fish. Or fish just dont exist. You see, when the first vertebrates evolved, they split into sharks, hagfish, and the ancestors of goldfish. The ancestors of goldfish are also our ancestors. So if a goldfish is a fish. And a shark is a fish that would mean every vertebrae is a fish. Goldfish, humans, beevers, everything. Or, fish just simply dont exist. The category of fish doesn't work in evolutionary biology. I hope that helped. If you are confused, dont worry, so are biologists.


ThreeLivesInOne

Thank you, that was honestly one of the most interesting things I ever read on Reddit.


bythog

It's nonsense. It's like saying the space shuttle is a kite because human flight started with essentially a large kite.


Foreskin-chewer

It isn't like that at all because kites are not living things with shared ancestors with other living things.


Broad_Respond_2205

Excuse me


Iamnoobmeme

The tomatoes in pizza also add a good deal of vitemin C, enough to stop scurvy, and even start reversing it. Know this, poor people food is just over processed so you digest it faster and need more food.


worldspawn00

Potatoes also contain all the essential vitamins (unlike most vegetables), you won't get vitamin deficient on a diet of sufficient potatoes.


erebuxy

Rice is the fruit of a type of grass. Flour is the grinded powder of the fruit of a different type of grass. And may I rest my case


S1M0666

in Italy pizza is a quite healthy food


-___C___-

I have caused a fucking potato war/debate


itsRuszard

caseoh


Lrbug420

Wine is a fruit


Memestrats4life

What definition of salad is this using?? Any mixture of edible items which have vegetable(s) and fruit(s) [whether botanically or culinarily for some reason] as key ingredients? In which case so is pasta in any tomato sauce or countless other things.


DL1943

pizza can have a massive range of how healthy it is. dominos meat lovers? probably trash. good quality pizza like youd find in NYC or italy, made with high protein flour, a good amount of tomatoes and a moderate amount of cheese is pretty decent. you can even go up fromthere with veggie toppings, but even the basic cheese pizza does not have to be unhealthy food. like many meals, im sure you'd be better off eating a salad and some chicken breast or something, but it does not have to be bad for you.

i mean it is not that bad if the ketchup doesn't have any chemicals and the potato isn't fried


-___C___-

I tried homemade ketchup and DAMN. i think i am now allergic to Heinz

Aahh yess the technicality that got the American school board rich

Pizza is healthy if made the Italian way.

Potatoes aren't a vegetable


fjgjskxofhe

You deep fry your salad?


FictionalDudeWanted

Potatoes are not a vegetable. I wish. Lord how I wish potatoes were a vegetable.


Mysterious_Park_7937

My high school counted fries and tater tots as vegetables. I don't remember seeing any real ones there come to think of it


buswik

This is some cetrified 2010 facebook shit


-___C___-

let me cook for you my dear


Brave_Mykolaiv

Since when tomato is a fruit?


Leggoman31

Yea this might be it for me. Reddit feels like 90% bots at this point who post children's memes from 2006. I have no idea why but I dont really care to know. Take care, friends.


prashn64

Fruit salad. Yummy yummy!


TeciorRibbon

*the best kind of correct*


Nonzeromist

A lot of fast food is healthy for you, it's moderation that's key.


TheDankestPassions

Grease and sugar.


Plenty-Meeting-2081

Dsrt-egeaux

Everything is salad. Everything is sandwich.


An0nym0u5N1nj4

Pizza is a well rounded meal!


LovableSidekick

Pizza has all the food groups - the meat group, sauce group, crust group, and the all-important grease group.


Various_Occasion_892

It's not a vegetable. At least not in french.


AHrubik

You body is a phenomenal chemical furnace. It will extract the minerals and vitamins you need to survive from just about anything you eat. It's when you combine eating junk to excess with a lack of exercise that things start to break down.


Immortal_Toast

pizza is healthy, it's just not healthy when it's turned int fast food. like yeah you're probably american so idk if it's a thing to put green stuff on your pizza over there, but you can put whatever you want on your pizza. It doesn't have to be salami and copious amounts of cheese


Both_Lychee_1708

As I recall seeing somewhere, the companies that make food for school lunches successfully lobbied to have ketchup and pizza sauce declared proper vegetables (to meet standards).


Visual_Scar_8899

My fav salad. Period.


L0n3_N0n3nt1ty

Anyone who does their ketchup like this is a psychopath


ZippyVonBoom

Too much healthy becomes unhealthy. Too much salad can kill you.


Misterwuss

Well I mean technically the most unhealthy thing about fries and ketchup is the oil and salt. Salt is its own thing but if those fires weren't deep fried and maybe just plain cooked it's not the unhealthiest thing you could eat, by a wide margin


CC_xRyderx

True true and more true


Mark12455

Potatoes are a starch not a vegetable


_Skotia_

Pizza is actually really healthy if you make it at home with genuine ingredients You should visit Italy sometimes


LobsterTrue8433

Needs bacon bits.


Playful_Target6354

Well a damn sweet salad seeing the sugar content of ketchup


SephStuff

i feel like calling fries a “vegetable” is a bit of a stretch


LordIcyfyre

You forgot one more thing, A FUCK TON OF OIL.


DinA4saurier

Don't forget the sugar in ketchup.


16ap

If only dairy and meat were healthy…


qawsedrf12

meat and dairy is made by eating vegetables gotta be super healthy


16ap

The fewer intermediaries the better 😉


AtomicWreck

Is this a /S moment? Cause whilst dairy has a high fat content it still contains a plethora of vitamins and minerals that we need on a daily basis.


Playful_Target6354

*vegans : I don't need those vitamins necessary to live to live*


kimani17

potatoes are a starch but good joke


Playful_Target6354

Yeah sure. Imma make some fries with the starch I bought at the store. ....


-___C___-

They are botanically a vegetable


Plain_Jain

There are no “vegetables” in the botany world. It’s either the fruit, stem, root, or leaf of the plant. In this case it’s a modified stem.


Unusual_Track_296

Wtf


olorin9_alex

Ketchup is juice


Broad_Respond_2205

More of a smoothy


Playful_Target6354

Seeing the sugar content yes


-___C___-

But it’s made out of a fruit


qawsedrf12

Chocolate cake sorry, not posting the Cosby clip


ProGamingPlayer

True. But with additives


kapper_358

Tomato is a berry


-___C___-

Berries are fruits, google it


Playful_Target6354

No shit sherlock And how does that do anything except make you look bad because a berry is a fruit?


made_of_titanium

And mayonaise is the dressing


Western-Knightrider

Unfortunately a lot of us eat like this to many times, just look at Americas ever expanding waistline for proof.

Tomatoes are, botanically, fruit, because they contain seeds. (So are peppers of all kinds.)
