11. I believe everything one eats is 'a diet', not a fad diet, or a diet with a celebrity

or vegetable name, but a diet none the less.

The things a person puts down the neck, and the amount, are of great importance when determining whether/not that person's diet is healthy.

It is true that sugar is in many things, but that is controllable as well. The yogurt in your example has much more sugar than the yogurt that I use.
