Junk Junk Junk!

Rubbish, trash, garbage or scrap. They all are junks.

Widely available, low in cost, heavily promoted and of good tasting.

Producing a predictable, understandable, and inevitable consequence- an epidemic of diet related diseases.

Yet very convenient and high in fat, sugar, and calories.

Imagine yourself feeding from a trash can each time you feed on those foods we call junks (wink!). Is this not one of the many reasons why we add weight?

The donuts in my office restaurant are calling my name, even though they are 200 feet away, even the kirishi and massa by wuse market junction.

Junk! Junk! Junk! The more I call you that, the more strength I gather in refusing you.

What on earth is going on here?
