"Dirty" diets make cutting easier?

[R1187]

If you are in maintenance and eating daily donuts and cola, does this mean to 'cut' all you have to do is drop them? After all, you will be in a caloric deficit.

If you were eating "clean", you would have to cut out quality carbs and/or fats to cut, and that would seem less convenient.

i mean those would be the easiest to drop as it is mainly carbs without losing protein macros.
