This list is based on certain criteria discussed in the article, nutrition
density being one of the most important:

Sounds like they are on the low-fat bandwagon. That's one red flag. At
least they seem to understand that refined crap is just that, crap.

It doesn't seem to me that they're on the low fat wagon
Salmon, Cod, Tuna, Olives, Avocado, Almonds, Walnuts, Sunflower Seeds
and so on don't seem exatly low-fat to me
Actually, they the higher fat foods, more than meats and dairy
They are on low-fat cheese wagon and this is a good thing since fats
from cheese are the worst fats possible and cheese compared to eggs,
fish, veggies, nuts, legums and fruits has such a low nutritional value
that every calories of cheese is a spoiled calories that could have been
used to secure more vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytochemicals

Beef, lean, organic, Calf's liver, Chicken, Lamb, loin, Turkey, roast, Venison

Low fat compared to lard and huge slabs of pork I suppose...

There are no oils on the list.  Are we suppose to avoid oils?

Silly list.

"There are no oils on the list.  Are we suppose to avoid oils?"

Oils/fats are well reppresented in the many foods containing them,ex.  
nuts/animal products.  Oil or fat as a single item is not because by
definition it is excluded for lacking enough nutrients per measure of
calorie which marks listing foods there,ie. more nutritional bang for the
buck.

I have my own published list, since 02/05/02,at:
http://food.naturalhealthperspective.com/fdscore.html

I will compare the two lists.  My objective was to promote eating a
plant based diet. There is no need to stress meat and oils as most are
already over consuming these items.

Of course, both lists are mostly about whole foods.

The above web site is billed as: The World's Healthiest Foods List,
A-Z.

Of course, this is obviously not true at all.  What it actually is, is
a very complete list of all the whole foods which are commonly
available to the consumer in the United States.

It is a "complete" list rather than a very selective list of the
so-called best whole foods.

What I found interesting about this web site was that it had 68 Google
backward links to its home page.  65 of these links came from within
the same web site, with only 3 from other web sites.  This was
precisely the same condition my web site was in at the end of last
year.

All of my internal links to my home page have since disappeared.  Now
all 60 of my backward links are coming from other web sites.  Hence,
Google is apparently using some kind of life cycle in order to compute
its backward links.  This web site is, thus, younger than my site.

Ergo, Google's computation of backward links is anything but honest,
straight forward or correct.  They are never remotely correct in most
cases. If all my internal web pages were to be added to my list, I
would easily have over 150 backward links. :(
