The problem for me and many others isn't the worst foods, it's the quantity. I am a bulk eater. There was a time I'd pull to a drive thru, let's say for example McD's, and the order would go something like this:
One QPC w/ cheese, super sized w/ the fries and drink.
20 piece nuggets w/ sweet and sour sauce (and extra for the fries)
2 chicken fajitas (they are so damn small)
and then round it out with a couple dollar menu items like 1 mcchicken, 1 cheeseburger no pickles, 1 mozzerella sticks
and the maybe a dessert item like 1 sundae w/ caramel or strawberry syrup (this was the pre-McFlurry era)
I think if you stick to one or even two normal sized "junk" meals a week, there's no reason you can't enjoy a healthy lifestyle. Just stay away from the damn accessories!!
