This article seems a bit like blog bait. Come on, really - what is newsworthy about this list? I was truly stunned - fries, soda, burgers, potato chips, cookies and cakes and hot dogs are junk food! Stop the presses!

heresy

Actually there seems to be some misinformation as well.

They claim there is no nutritional value in hamburgers or cheeseburgers. That's absolutely false.

Some years back Consumers Report did a piece on the fast food burgers and found that while they did not measure up as a very healthy choice they were nutritionally not bad. They had protein, starch, and assuming lettuce and tomatoes, vitamins.

Too much fat and all but not a nutritional desert.

If it tastes good, it's bad for you. Like sex.

Just seemed like a rail against trans fat...*shrugs*

Agreed. How is this "news"?

They'll take away my bacon over my cold dead body!

What is pleasant in our life is either immoral or illegal or bad for our health :)
