hemp hearts

Tons of nutrients and healthy fats, makes other things like parfaits or cereal more satiating

coconut milk

Good source of various minerals and electrolytes and healthy fats. Somewhat satiating drink since it has about 50 calories a glass from fat content

nutritional yeast

Mega-dose levels of the B vitamins and good as a thickener and cheese substitute. Great with eggs

Bacon. It’s super delicious.

None, the term super food is marketing term with no basis in science

When i mentioned “legit superfoods”, I was sort of getting at the unsexy normal stuff that available, common (or uncommon due to lack of recognition), and generally understood to be nutritionally wholesome

Oatmeal, perhaps surprisingly.

I’ve also heard negatives about oatmeal. Like hard to absorb. As a plant, like kale absorbs all nutrients, good and bad, which doesn’t balance out.

Cheap calories, but I think it’s not a super food.

Literally every food has negatives as well as positives, so if that were the definition of superfood then superfoods do not exist, as others here are also saying.

Oatmeal has a ton of positives though, and it’s often considered a superfood - at least often enough to warrant a mention and a deeper look.

No, she loves it. She also loves actual cucumbers, though I’ve never tried to scare her with one
