For many being healthy is just making a choice to use whole wheat flower. Everyone is at different stages of their health goal. That is why there's more than one kind of recipe on here. A lot of us cook for others and we do our best to make things healthy for them… but with my grandkids and son in laws, I like recipes like this along with ones that are better fitted for me… agreed healthy is used very loosely.
