My adventurous sim, just got the health food nut lifestyle, since they started as a rags to riches they could only afford the fridge and made a ton of salads which is how he got the lifestyle. However I find it weird that a lot of the new foods that come with Snowy Escape are not considered "healthy". I get that hot pot wouldn't be considered healthy (there's lots of oils and fats in it) but he didn't like avocado maki roll (which I consider healthy) and it gave him the wasted calories sad moodlet. I think that the foods that the game considers healthy need a bit of a tune up to include the foods from SE and CL cause a lot of those I would consider healthy eating options. Does anyone know what foods, that are NOT part of the health food nut cooking options, are considered healthy by health nut sims? So far I have found salad and pan fried tilapia to be ok. I don't want to always have to cook the health nut options as they make my sim energized and that buff is strong enough to cover other buffs, like inspired or focused, I want my sim to feel those too sometimes and not always energized from healthy foods.

Island vegetable feast cooked on the BBQ pit is considered healthy.

I want to get this one. Is Fruit Salad a dessert or healthy food? I'm not sure.

I just got the lifestyle and I agree they should need to tweak it a little.

Fruit Salad is considered healty like all salads. Those are the only food dishes that are considered healthy though. I agree, it needs some tweaking.

It also looks to me like it needs some tweaking. I would love to see a full list of what is and is not considered healthy or junk food. Someone mentioned early on that all Quick Foods are considered unhealthy/junk foods, and if that's true that would make no sense. You would think edamame and orange juice, for example, would definitely be considered healthy.

I'm glad I read this as I was aiming to get this but failing miserably even though my sim is living on fruit salad, salads, grilled chicken and herb-crusted salmon. I would have expected there to be the obviously health like the about, fruit and yogurt, sushi, vegetable chilli, even the burritos aside from the one with the cheese. The obviously unhealthy, burgers, pizza, grilled cheese, fish and chips, anything traditionally fried. Then anything in-between it would have been great if that depended on the sim health food nut or junk food fiend, with dishes like spaghetti, stir-fry, casseroles, they can either be made healthy or unhealthy depending on the person, just like in real life. I don't think I could handle having a sim stress so much over what they eat, if it was just positive moodlets then that would have been ace.

Think I might have to start working on another lifestyle as this one seems a bit restrictive.

What about the Wellness skill recipes? Superfood salad, carob coconut cake etc?

Maybe it's based purely on calorie content rather than a more balanced traffic light system that include nutritious but calorific foods like avocado and nuts.
