We’ll in my head, unhealthy and food ate sort of antonyms. If food is anything you can eat then uranium is a pretty unhealthy food. So a food that is technically unhealthy is not something most would consider food, like rocks.

Foods are more or less healthy based on the ratio of vitamins vs calories. So you can get your daily dose of protein from Snickers but it would be thousands of calories.

If all you care about is your weight. You can also live off of Snickers and water (well you won’t starve anyway) as long as you count the calories.

From a robots point of view, losing weight is just math. Calories in <calories out. But there’s a lot more to health than that.
