Prod removed apparently because even though this list is unsourced, the linked articles may (or may not) have sources in them. Anyway, the list has no inclusion criteria and no clear purpose or notability as an article topic. Would need to be moved it kept; name is analogous to "List of countries by square kilometers" or "List of buildings by meters". Reywas92^Talk 19:00, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I would say Wikipedia is not a list of things. Plus what food would be included? To be fair you would literally have to list every food in the world. Also, the article cite no source. --Tyw7  (🗣️ Talk • ✍️ Contributions) Please ping me if you had replied 20:16, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I don't see a specific listing that applies, but this should be excluded by the spirit of WP:NOT; Wikipedia is not a nutrition manual. power~enwiki (π, ν) 20:17, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE, WP:NOTGUIDE, WP:NOR. Ajf773 (talk) 22:34, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I suppose that a "list of foods famous for high caloric density" might be acceptable, but this isn't that. XOR'easter (talk) 15:51, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE. The topic is far too broad. There is also the issue of many foodstuffs not having a canonical caloric value: How much sugar and milk do you have in your coffee? What sized servings? — Alpha3031 (talk | contribs) 13:15, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete this unsourced text of original work. Lists seem to be a particularly welcoming field for practitioners of original work. Time to start starving the practice. -The Gnome (talk) 11:21, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:MILL, WP:LIST, and WP:SNOW. Bearian (talk) 21:38, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
