Where am I missing that from? The linked Wikipedia article explicitly states that it’s not designed for this.

How is the food unhealthy? By having lots of fats? Or high salt? Or high sugar? Is it perhaps the ingredients that make it unhealthy?

You're missing that from the conversation, where myself and others have stated it repeatedly, not from the wikipedia page.

> How is the food unhealthy? By having lots of fats?

Yes.

> Or high salt?

Yes, that too.

> Or high sugar?

Yes, very much this.

> Is it perhaps the ingredients that make it unhealthy?

Also true. For example: while preservatives like sodium benzoate are not used in unhealthy quantities in any individual item of food, a diet high in ultraprocessed foods can consume unsafe levels.
