our focus when eating real food: give the body nutrients that it needs for structure, form, and function. nurture our concept of self-sufficiency, metabolic flexibility, and fat burning. minimize toxic exposure.  
what do we want personally? optimal body composition. to feel amazing. optimal performance. optimal health markers.  
we are cellular beings, and we are made up of trillions of cells which need: nutrients for structure, form, and function. to be able to detoxify. create energy from different sources.  
therefore our foods to avoid: aren't sources of nutrients, and/or don't contribute to self-sufficiency, and/or have a toxic burden that inhibit nutrient assimilation, or cause other long-term problems.  
and from a personal standpoint: don't give us optimal body composition. don't' make us feel good. don't give us good health markers over the long-term.
