The food Villains! -- please join in

I'm not exactly sure when it all started, but it seems over the last 30+ years we've made some foods into Villains! And, I'm working on a list.

Since first being thrown into the underworld, some of the foods listed below have risen back to non-villain status and some have even become angelic.

Please Note: This is not meant to be a discussion about "why" these foods are evil (or not), nor whether they were unfairly branded, but rather just a simple list.

Please add to the list --

1) all "fats"
2) saturated fat
3) cholesterol
4) margarine
5) butter
6) lard
7) vegetable oil
8) msg
9) eggs

  1. egg yolks
  2. peanut butter
  3. fruit
  4. potatoes
  5. white flour

  10. "canned" foods
  11. "packaged" foods

  59. milkshakes
  60. cool whip

  62. Maraschino cherries

  79. preservatives (not really a "food" though)
  80. artificial anything
  81. any starchy vegetable (sweet potato, tapioca, etc)
  82. honey
  83. syrups
  84. hydrogenated oils
  85. fast food

There is a bit of overlap--some foods seem to enjoy the pleasure of very specific notoriety, so I listed them separately even though their category is listed as well: i.e. "Snickers" and "Candy".
