Pizza is junk food?

My favorite junk food now are Reese's cups, I hated them as a kid, but now like Winston Smith, I learned to love them.

Have fun, its friday, and Trump will be inaugriated on monday.

"Bottom line, you can enjoy these foods in moderation,"

Permission has been granted, it seems. But this may be rescinded and bugs may be mandatory in the near future.

So rather than actually seeing what people are, they just used numbers of Google searches and got pizza, chili or pizza and chili for every state. That’s weak even for Newsweak.

Well, yeah. True for everything. Except pizza.

Nachos. Plain and simple sharp cheddar cheese nachos. And lots of jalapenoes. Maybe with beans. 

I also developed my own special tasty nacho.

Doritoes with Swiss Cheese and jalapenoes.

Pizza can be a balanced meal if prepared with wholesome ingredients...

Then there's Japan...

You can have so many variations of toppings on pizza.

“ nutrition experts say it doesn’t have to be an unhealthy choice”

This says a lot about their “experts”! The pizza I eat is always healty. Exactly which pizza is not a healthy choice?

Pizza is HEALTH FOOD.

the map says banana bread is the favorite dessert of NJ. I call BS to this map, I’ve lived my whole life in NJ (pity me) and I can’t even think of a time I’ve seen banana bread on a menu or for sale in a store here. It probably is but definitely no front and center like such a fave would be. If you beleive this map Banana bread and frozen yugurt are the top desserts nationwide. as my old depression era dad would say - Bushwa!

“Vegetable toppings, such as spinach, mushrooms and peppers also add vitamins A and C, magnesium and potassium...”

Also great ways to ruin a pizza

I used to live near one of those Mm! Mm! Pizza locations. It was very good.

It ain’t pizza without anchovies.
