A fried potato isn't that bad. It's got a lot of kilojoules if you're counting, but it is also fairly unprocessed. Lots of supposedly diet snacks are actually worse for you than a fried potato.

Processed food is the devil. And it's everywhere in our diet. If the ingredients list on a snack is more than two lines long and has a bunch of numbers, it is worse for you than a fried potato.
