Junk food is exactly what it says it is –
junk. It is a term used to describe food that is of little
nutritional value and often high in fat, sugar, salt, and calories.
Unfortunately, recently junk food has become a huge passion for a large
number of people in the entire world. Millions of adults and children feel they
cannot live without hamburgers and chips, so they are definitely addicted to
them. Today teenagers have other visions and ideas about life, which are
completely wrong, in my opinion. They use to think that everyting is bad for their health is cool, and they are nobodies if they don’t try it. Because of
these ideas young people start to drink, smoke, and eat at all kinds of
McDonalds and other cheap but popular places. They refuse eating homemade,
healthy food because it seems uncool to them, and they would rather say their
friends that they ate some greasy fries, than a delicious homemade soup. At the
same time, eating junk food every day leads to serious negative consequences.
They won’t only add kilograms, it will destroy their liver and stomach as
well.
To sum up, I
would say that I am also a teenager, I like junk food but I don’t permit myself
eating it too frequent as I know what consequences it may have. I would rather have a nice body and a good health than eat all kind of junk, thinking that in this way I will be cool.
