When it comes to food, what is more important to you, taste or nutrition?
Definitely nutrition, but I have found that it is possible to have both (for the most part).
Barring eating out, I'd rather whip up a shake of a bunch of 'junk' but it is (1) healthy and (2) contains everything which my body needs, and nothing which it doesn't (i.e., fats, etc.).

I have diabetes and two heart stents. So I have to avoid sugar, starches (potatoes, bread, pasta, rice) and sodium. If it tastes good, I know it's bad for me.
Depending on how severe it was, it could potentially make me wonder if it was worth living those extra years. I've never been afraid of death itself, but rather of the process of dying; if something I enjoyed could take me out quickly with little chance of long-term suffering, so be it.That reminds me of a guy with a heart condition who worked in my office. His doc told him "If it tastes good, spit it out". Bummer.
Liver and Onions, with a little bit of bacon thrown in tastes good to me.Flavor, I don't care how good for me Liver with Onions are I won't eat them!
