I don't think there's a bad food. They can all have their uses.
I had a large pile of cooked deer meat. Deer stew gives me a way to have deer meat and deer meat in my belly in the early game. Raspberries and blueberries can be plentiful, so this also offers a way to boost remaining deer meat as you move on to all prepared dishes.
Boar jerky Is often what I eat when I'm just puttering around, to buff against dumb mistakes and get a touch of stamina. At 2 per meat+honey, it's super cheap. Plus is stacks to 20.
Sure, neither of these are a good choice when you have, and need, better options.
We're not just min-maxing final stats versus resource cost. There are more factors like actual needs, and managing the three-different stomach slots. Resource value is also not static -- it's in constant flux for a given player. Sure you can generalize, but when you prejudice things into "best" and "worst" you might miss out on the moment-to-moment best value judgements.
