Are we really making a mountain out of a molehill by differentiating between healthy and unhealthy foods? Well, Mountain thinks so. We are talking about Lucy Mountain, a London-based blogger, who thinks that our idea of a healthy snack is totally distorted.

Most surprisingly, she stresses that junk food is not as bad as it is thought to be!
Mountain compares almonds with candy and says that the former is counted as healthy, while candy is termed unhealthy, whereas both contain the same amounts of calories. According to her, a handful of almonds is akin to eating a packet of Fruit Pastels candy.

She shows that salt and vinegar chips have actually fewer calories than veggie chips or regular strawberries have the same number of calories as dried ones.
