Junky
The other day I was driving back from a very good customer visit and noticed the line of cars at a national chain hamburger restaurant. Then I passed another chain, and sure enough, long line. Then I saw a wrap-around line for drive through coffee. It got me to wondering about this type of food, and other “junk food” as we all call it. I look at the salad option when I stop, but those fries!!! YUM. What’s the story behind this fascination, especially the “center aisles” in grocery stores – rows of chips and dips and crackers, and then the cookies and dessert aisles. I’ll admit, the right bag of chips, with the right brand of dip, and I’m “all in”. With a little checking I found out junk food has a fascinating and often controversial history, filled with intriguing facts and trivia. So, enjoy the info. And thanks to Google, You Tube and Wikipedia for the info.
