Does this mean I have to delete my McDonalds App?
I just bought one of their Artisan Chicken Sandwiches for a $1.00 using it. Darn...
What is junk food? Essentially any food that is highly processed, high in calories and low in nutrients.
The problem is how much you take in vs how much you burn up.
No but do you know what every now and then means? Most people consume fast foods and or high amounts of process foods as the major component of their diet instead of a small portion of a daily diet, like six the seven times a day. That artisan chicken sandwich taste good but how can McDonalds make money if that chicken breast was REAL chicken selling it for $1.00? Its most likely parts and pink slime put together and stored for months in some freezer warehouse before shipped off to franchises
It’s a Promo to get Customers to use their Mobile Pay App.
It’ a real Grilled Chicken Breast on an Artisan Bun with Cheese, Lettuce and Pico Guacamole. It normally sells for about $5.50.
Not the typical cheap Chicken Sandwich and certainly not anything like those gross Chicken McNuggets. Blech...
There is no “junk food”. Just con artists named “nutrionnists” using junk science to bill junk advices.
There was no nutrionnist 50 years ago and people were slim. Conclusion, the more nutrionnists, the more obese people.
I go to the Chinese food take-out once a week. Seems like pretty decemt food. Tastes good!
Chick-fil-A once a day...
If that sage advice worked we wouldn’t have a health crisis.
It’s a bit more complicated than that, but very simple when people admit that there’s a problem.
Article & author are full of itsh.
Nearly every ‘diet’ out there since the word ‘diet’ became lexicon used 80:20.
The problem is people looking for single point fixes to complex problems created by institutional and cultural ignorance.
make that six bananas ( We didn’t eat them yet because they are slightly green).

Self-Discipline is hard.
We mostly suffer from the health problems of affluence.
I disagree.
We as a culture suffer health problems of corruption.
The evidence fills the pages of my books.
This statement is almost correct. Natural saturated fat (animal fats, coconut oil, butter cheese etc) is perfectly healthy and necessary to the human diet. It has no connection to heart disease or any other disease. The fats that are bad for you are trans fats and most vegetable oils.
Also there is no dietary requirement for any carbohydrate (including sugar). The body makes the glucose that it needs.
We are all suffering from the bad dietary science promulgated since the the 1950s with the phony research of Ancel Keys.
Saturated fats and coconut oil are brain food.
We may find in the future that the Alzheimers and dementia problems in our society are due to restriction of these healthy fats.
Just because you can eat it, doesn’t make it food. cough tide pods..
“The problem is how much you take in vs how much you burn up.”
That’s a very interesting statement, and also very true.
Maybe our society is trying to take individual responsibility from our nation’s fat slobs and blaming fast food outfits for the problem.
It’s a little on the order of blaming murders on gun manufacturers while coddling the psycho’s that do the murdering.
