I understood the comment to mean, “when given the choice between minimally processed whole foods and highly processed packaged foods, pick the former as often as possible,” not “eat frequently.”

I don't think "often" means "as much as you can during the day", I think it means to try to have that kind of food at each meal/snack as often as you can.

parent comment very likely meant "[when choosing a meal] eat [...] as often as possible", not recommending eating constantly throughout the day
