Canned fruit *in heavy syrup* is a culprit. Canned soup *with high sodium levels* is less than healthy. *Sugar-coated* breakfast cereal is a trigger. Coffee creamer is more partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, with artificial flavoring and chemical emulsifiers. Lunch meat = sodium, nitrates, nitrites, and other potentially dangerous chemical additives. There's nothing wrong with pizza in moderation.

I'd say there's really nothing wrong with ANY of the above, as long as it's not your primary source of food. Ask everyone who died from the *combination* of obesity, diabetes, and heart failure, whether these foods are what killed them. Oh wait - you can't. Because they're dead.
For the last five years there has been no partially hydrogenated oils in coffee creamer or microwave popcorn or any food sold in the US. Trans fat has been banned in the U.S. and partially hydrogenated oils were a major source of that.

You will see palm oil, palm kernel oil, and hydrogenated oil (has no trans) on your food labels now.
