I have been eating junk foods for two days already... Hamburger, french fries, sundae, ice cream , pizza... Nachos, coke. Why do junk foods taste so good.. WHy..? If only junk foods taste bad then people would prefer healthier food.. Don't you think?

To an extent, I am pretty much addicted to junk food. People call them junk food, but they are amazingly tasty, and addictive. When I am in the shopping malls, I would n't miss the chance to go to the food court, and enjoy some of my favorites, one of them is Hawaiian pizza, thick crust with lots of cheese. Oh, yummy, yummy !

Yes, junk foods are quite addictive... I have been avoiding junk food for a while, maybe that's why, when I saw one at the house- don't know who bought it, I just asked if i can eat it- and I did.

So there are really addictive stuff inside the junk foods? That's why people love them... Where'd you get that information and what is the name of the additive. Thanks for your response and welcome to mylOt.

Your discussion made me think of the saying.."minute in your mouth, forever on your hips!" I don't know the answer to your problem, as I can honestly say..I never eat junk food...and whenI do I get violently ill. I think it is physchological, because I KNOW how bad it is for me! Get rid of it from your surroundings...and stop buying it! So little nutrition, for so many dollars! Take care and Cheers!

Haha, thanks for sharing that saying- It's my first time hearing it, but it's definitely true. I didn't buy them, it just happened to be in the house at the time I was craving for it. I haven't eaten junk food in a while too.

Good morning, lady1993! I truly "thank you" for the best response. Reading my responses, they almost look like a lecture from a "cyber" Mother..LOL!!! Please believe I am NOT on a one woman "mission" to rid the world of junk food...but your post had me a bit concerned! Hope you are having a great weekend, and winter isn't raging where you live. Take care..and Cheers!

Thanks for the advice- yes I am quite aware that all junk foods are really unhealthy, and all we are eating are chemicals and preservatives, even though they place some 'vitamins and minerals' and fiber there...I do eat vegetables and healthy food, since my parents brought me up to eat those.

hi lady, i guess you are not thinking of health. maybe you are just thinking of the taste. or maybe you are in a hurry and lazy to cook. i find hamburger filling when you are hungry but its not good to be eating it every day. have a nice day. ann

I just felt like eating those kinds of foods those days. YEah, I was a bit lazy too- I just wanted to eat something delicious without cooking. I just love hamburgers and pizza.
