It's not just _food_. It's a bunch of the stuff that this random programmer thought was important, out of the set of things we know of that we get from food, tossed into a blender.

It's none of the things that we get from food that we haven't identified as important, or that this dude didn't think were sufficiently important to include, or anything else along those lines.
