Another bad thing is that people eat fast food in a hurry. They eat more when they are in a hurry. That is why they are overweight which is bad for their health. D. Junk food is any food that is unhealthy. Examples of junk food include hamburgers, pizza, candy, soda and salty foods like potato chips and French fries. Junk food still remains popular because it is cheap and convenient to eat. It usually has lots of empty calories. They are very low on proteins, vit­amins and fibre.
