Junk foods and fast foods are not essential for health, they are for rare use in case of an emergency to sustain life, like when famine comes, calamities like flood and wars, or when some crisis develops and no food is prepared... Rarely during travel too. Thus we may have to use them rarely.... by exception and not by choice. They are never superior to or are never a substitute to the regular food. In general anything that is ready to eat and has a long shelf life are junk food, even it is a health drink... Because they are not essential. In general all junk foods are to be avoided for several reasons, but occasional use in moderation can be alright but regular use and excessive use invites problems of health. The consumerist forces using services of the celebrities like film stars and cricket stars force their use on unsuspecting general public, now they have almost replaced regular foods since they are considered superior to regular foods. more

Junk food certainly not a component in food system which helps in developing healthy people. Let it be again known to everybody that our conventional food system consisting of almost all types of variety of food raw materials had been and is the best in the world. Unfortunately, we have been getting carried away by the advertisements done by the companies involving celebrities (cricketers, film actors, etc.). Celebrities themselves may not be touching those products but for money, they some how do not hesitate in playing with the money and health of common people. Firstly, the ban on doing such advertisements by celebrities should be strictly dealt with in public interest. Secondly, the weak psychology of consumers is an important factor. We may not have enough to eat to keep their children nutritionally balanced but certainly take pride in telling, "We had a Pizza last night at .... place (costing 200 to 400 Rs). Public awareness is thus of significance. Each one of the food professionals should come forward and contribute in their own way to educate the people about the ill effects of junk food on the health of children, elderly and everyone for that matter. Then only some positive changes are expected to be visible. more
