Unhealthy food usually is only technically good. Everything is filled without nutrients because it tastes better, therefore you eat more. Bleached flour and partially hydrogenized soybean oils give you the sense of fullness without sustenance. You eat things, feel full, but you’re still lacking needed vitamins and minerals. You being none the wiser just think “more food should fix this” so you go back to the filling food.
The cheap, fast food industry has completely ruined us. It’s addicting and gives you the sense that you get what you need. Even the salads are bombarded with dressings that are liquid sugar, but you hear “salad” and think healthy.
TL;DR: it’s cheap and satisfies your primal brain
