I voted for fast food hamburgers because quite a few of them are loaded with items that I don't consider to be healthy. A homemade burger might or might not be junk food. So, I chose not to vote it as junk food.

Ok I voted on the white bread. Obviously you all know what kind I'm talking about. Just in case anyone gives a damn. |

That's my understanding of the answers as well, and that's what I voted for. |

Milk ? Junk Food ? Is there something different about the status of Milk in the US I am not aware of ? Milk is good for us, full of calcium and a wholesome drink for kids in particular. A bit puzzled by this ? Do Americans add sugar and lots of fats to their milk ?
By white bread I assume people mean "plastic" white sliced bread which is usually full of additives, bleaches, sugar and salt ?

You forgot instant ramen noodles. Deep fried starch loaded with salt. It's really a 800+ calorie bowl of wet potato chips.
