Humans are not rats and it is the processed carbs , not the fat alone that cause the so called epidemic.
Yep, now that Obama on hook for health costs social control is necessary.
Oh, you meant that kind of rat.......my bad.
But I love my chocolate...They will have to pry it out of my cold, dead hand!!!
This biological phenomenon comes from our ancestral past when eating meat straight off the fire triggered the desire to go out and get more fresh meat. I guess that is early man’s equivalent to junk food. Right?
No ObamaCare for fatties!!! “Get thin if you want in!”
I didn’t need a rat to tell me that crunchy Cheetos make feel like I need a support group. :)
I pulled a frozen pizza out of the emergency food supply if that is considered junk food then might as well give me a cow lick.
It was so sodium laced and tasteless I would even feed it to my dogs...just tossed it.
Think Izzys is in the dinner plans this week.
The article is flawed imo.
Chocolate is NOT junk food.
If they had their way, grocery stores will no longer be places where the individual has any choice for what they buy. All “junk food” will be eliminated from the shelves and you will be scrutinized by your food purchases. No one will be able to buy their own oil to make their home fried potato chips. No! No! No! That oil will be used to run the buses.
LOL...It better not be!!!
For me, it’s the carbs. They make me shake with hunger.
In the daytime I’m Mister Natural, just as healthy as I can be,
but at night I’m a junk food junkie, good Lord have pity on me...

I think it’s catching up to me, or my scale is broken. I know I’ve sucked down a lot of Budweisers lately, but at 56 years old, weighing 115-117 pounds is ridiculous. But I do need a haircut rather badly ...
Bacon isn’t junk food. That being said, going with whole, unprocessed food has helped me lose weight. Not scientific, but it works for me.
bacon is nature’s perfect food
Spoiled rats.
I think there’s something to this. I seem to have become addicted to sweets. And the more I eat them, the more I want.
