Health Food Nut List Is Lacking

I think people have different ideas about what is healthy food. Like tofu, many consider it healthy because it's plant based, but soy it's actually bad for your thyroid. Anyway, here's what SimsWiki says about this lifestyle. To get and maintain this lifestyle, your sims don't need to eat only healthy food, but they need to eat it often enough, say at least once a day, and they also need to avoid what is considered as junkfood. Everything else is neutral food and won't sway your sim's lifestyle preferences either way. 

Sims who live a Health Food Nut Lifestyle are devoted to eating nutrient-filled foods! To acquire or maintain this Lifestyle, eat healthy foods and harvestables while avoiding Quick Meals, desserts, or anything that may seem unhealthy!

• Various benefits when eating healthy food
• Prefers to cook and eat healthy food
• Can “Cook Healthy Meal” to make alternative healthy recipe options
• Increased Weight Loss and Fitness Gain while working out after eating a meal made by “Cook Healthy Meal”
• Can “Evangelize Benefits of Health Food” to other Sims
• Displeased by eating junk food and tense when going too long without eating healthy food

Conflicts with "Junk Food Fiend"

I wish more foods are added to healthy beyond salad and what a few other dishes? I also wish the caloric calculation of food and hunger regeneration was adjusted (example most fish/egg dishes should have half the calories for more accurate simtheory). From what I have heard some newer/pack foods aren't set/assigned like base game calculations. And the fact that you have to workout like a mad man/woman just to maintain your Sims weight is IMHO triggering (I use a mod to turn this off).

But I think what needs to be done is that food shouldn't be treated like it was in the 80s/90s since many foods back then have been since been debunked as "bad/fatty" foods. Sims caloric numbers look a lot like those out of date diet guidelines. This can be triggering both ways healthy/good and fatty/bad for people. Healthy (Health Food Nut) can just be non-processed and no added sugar foods.

Jooleeyuh​ jooleeyuh Warranted feeling. I'm not tied to the function in such a way though. I wrote this from the viewpoint of taxonomy if you will. Ex: The list of food options when you select to cook from the refrigerator is slightly different then that of the one shown when you select to cook from the oven/stove. I get lost in the sauce when shopping for what to cook. I need the menus to be accurate and condensed. 

crocobaura​ Admittedly, the moodlet I thought I received from eating superfood salad set this post off lol. My main point still stands though. There are a number of food items amongst the list that I mentioned that should be considered in the 'Cook Healthy Meal' menu is all. So far I'm seeing the following that should be included: superfood salad, tofu chicken, faux meat bowl etc. Again, still in the progress of playing and documenting so the list could be longer.  My sims often also eat on the healthier side. Meaning, they have the fatty stuff, but snack on produce from their garden or opt for vegetarian options and so forth. 

Some food categories will automatically be considered unhealthy, like quick meals, bakery items, and I think also leftovers.  I think if you try to not let your sims eat those foods that are considered unhealthy, it should be easier to maintain the health nut lifestyle. 

All I know is I have to cheat the Health Nut lifestyle away every time one of my Sims becomes plagued with it because I find it incredibly triggering for my RL eating disorder.  😟
