Do you track carbohydrates or calories? On Junk Food Day, you are excused. Skip the salad and order the meat-lover's pizza instead. Your fat-free frozen yoghurt is delicious, but today you can indulge in double-fudge ice cream without feeling guilty.
Have you ever wished for a day in which you could consume anything you desire? Indeed, today is that day. National Junk Food Day is observed on July 21 annually. This is not your typical indulgence day, as it is dedicated to the foods we enjoy snacking on. Today, junk food can be consumed at every meal. Popularised in the United States during the 1950s, junk foods are typically rich in fats, sugars, salt, and calories. But they are also exceptionally tasty! On National Junk Food Day, indulge yourself. On this day, you are permitted to consume your favourite snack foods without remorse. Therefore, feel free to add additional cheese to your burger and order fries. Today you are permitted!
Do you track carbohydrates or calories? On Junk Food Day, you are excused. Skip the salad and order the meat-lover’s pizza instead. Your fat-free frozen yoghurt is delicious, but today you can indulge in double-fudge ice cream without feeling guilty. There is always one colleague in the break room who is eating a salad while you snack on nachos. You need not fret about them today, as they are also (secretly) partaking in Junk Food Day. Cravings are intense feelings of desire for a specific substance. When the brain’s opioids and dopamine react to the benefits of high-calorie foods, appetites for junk food may occur. Studies have shown that when we are under tension, we are more likely to crave sweets and baked goods.
National Junk Food Day provides the perfect (one-day) excuse to eat junk food, which is not a healthy method to deal with stress on a regular basis. The first fish and chip store opens in Oldham, England’s Tommyfield Market. Max Sielaff of Berlin invents the first vending machine for basic foods and beverages. Joseph Horn and Frank Hardart introduce a vending machine and fast cuisine to New York City. White Castle opens its first fast-food hamburger stand in Wichita, Kansas, to launch its franchise. In Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Vernon Rudolph introduces the doughnut and coffeehouse chain Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. McDonald’s begins franchising operations.

Junk Food Day is the ideal opportunity to indulge and boast about it. Take an Instagram photo of the chocolate bourbon cupcakes you ate for lunch. Remember to use the hashtag #NationalJunkFoodDay
Only eating junk food with your companions is better than eating it alone. Invite people to a potluck of junk cuisine. No leafy greens are permitted, only everyone’s favourite cheesy, fatty, carbohydrate-based dishes.
