I wasn't giving a dictionary definition. According to your definition of "eliminating extremes", it would be entirely subjective, wouldn't it? So invoking the term or idea of "moderation" is not helpful in this discussion. Everyone has a different idea of what is extreme and many here think that eating a healthy diet, as I do, is extreme.

My point, again, is that one cannot get to a balanced diet by eating unbalanced processed foods.
