11 Foods I Think Qualify as "Junk Food"

[Anonymous]

Doughnuts

They're dipped in oil.

Cake

This also includes cupcakes, cake icing, and cake batter.

Chips

This includes any kind of chips.

Candy

Any kind of candy is junk food. This includes gummy bears, skittles, gushers, fruit rollup, nerds, twizzlers, lollipops, and etc.

Cookies

Chocolate chip cookies, cookie dough, oreos, and all kinds of cookies.

French Fries

I used to love these before I had an eating disorder. My older sister used to tease me with them.

Cheese Puffs

Cheetos and cheese curls.

Ice Cream

🙁 but it tastes so good.

Soda

I hate soda. I always did and I think it's because my dad taught me to hate it.

Cream Puffs

I know they taste so great, but why does it have to be junk food? 😟

Brownies

Some of them taste so good if they're cooked the right way.

Is there any other food that I'm missing from this list?

Well, I tend to associate "junk food" with really bad products that have ingredients no human should ever ingest, like the chemicals and crap you find in a lot of mainstream salty and sugary snacks. The entire checkout line at a grocery store is loaded with things that are essentially inedible, as far as I'm concerned.

You can, however, create some pretty amazing baked goods that, while hardly healthy, aren't what I'd classify as "junk food." A fantastically made brownie with amazing ingredients, for example, is a great dessert. A Dunkin Donut is horrid trash but a homemade doughnut (and if you've never had one and don't know the difference, you're seriously deprived) can be a deadly thing of beauty. ;)

Well yeah, all of these are obviously junk foods 😂😄

Junk food is - by definition - anything that doesn't have nutritional value that provides energy for the body and that has many harmful ingredients...
So all damage, none of the energy.

French fries - do not fall under that category - especially if they aren't dep fried but oven fried...

mmm utz cheese balls the best cheesie puffs out there.

french fries are only so bad for you. potatoes are fine and if you make them yourself in fresh oil and especially if you use peanut or (if you want to spend more) olive oil they can be relatively ok for you

some of these really aren't that bad in moderation or on occasion but due to the sugar levels (and even worse the artificial sweeteners in soda) most of these things are not so good for you in more than moderate quantities.

soda is one thing i've tried to cut out especially since so much of it uses high fructose corn syrup instead of natural sugar

These foods are very greasy. I love the french fries and sprite. I could live only eating potatoes. I haven't have any of these foods for a long time. I miss them, but when I think about how much weight i will put on if i eat them They stop to look so appealing.

The only thing that came to mind while reading this Take was the word 'Duh'.

Yes they are.

Anything deep fried. Chicken. Meatballs. Marrs Bars.

I love crisps/chips. And bread.

[Relentless_Hippie]

Sure they're all junk food, but you can eat them in moderation :P
