this is my understanding, it's not that they're bad, but that they are in everything.

Yep, that's the main problem with all the buzzword substances that diet culture is obsessed with: fat, salt, carbs, etc... All of those are fine in moderation, but the problem is that the processed garbage that the average person eats for lunch contains a RIDICULOUS amount of those things.

Not sugar, though. Sugar is just bad for you, full stop. ๐Ÿ˜†
