I like to eat kfc, I just don't understand why it be called junk food, There are green vegetables, meat, noodles, sauce, what is missing?
Check the Internet, the ten major junk foods include: Fried foods, pickled foods, processed meat dish (jerky, dried meat floss, sausage and ham), biscuits (not including low temperature baking and whole wheat biscuits), cola drinks, soda convenient food (mainly refers to the instant noodles and fried food), canned foods (including meat and fruit), plum candied food, frozen dessert food (ice cream, ice cream popsicle, etc.), barbecue food.
So, all of my faovrite foods are junk food. You may be the same. And there are the following confusion: why do people want to call these cute little junk food? Why do we all like to eat junk food?
For thousands of years, human have been in a state of not having enough meal, often fell hungry, so if they are favored the food which let them stay away from the hunger. Sugar is the fastest "effective" food, fat, high heat, long duration, will naturally be more popular. This development process will be experienced all over the world, so this preference will become a co
.mmon phenomenon. It is only in the last hundred years that humanity has just solved the problem of food deprivation,this is the first time in the long history of evolution.
From then on, people who waste food will no longer suffer from food deprivation, however, the health of people who accumulate lot of fat will be affect because of excessive intake of food.
When humans no longer worry about eating, "taste" has become a major factor affecting food preferences. On the one hand, the "sweet" is the human favorite taste, there are statistics found that children's food preferences are about 50% depending on the sweetness. On the other hand, a lot of flavor substance is dissolved in the fat, so the fat to eat more meat stuffing. Do you have this feeling, when the mood is bad, people will eat more, especially the choice of high calorie food to eat.
There is a scientific basis: when the body to feel the pressure, the body will secrete a hormone cortisol, the primary task is to improve the level of blood glucose, the cells to provide energy, but can lead to increased appetite, obesity, can prevent the secretion of leptin and insulin, increased hunger, cause people more likely to eat high calorie food.
