Short answer: Because we are lazy.
The food humans generally find enjoyable is anything energy dense, unhealthy food are usually packed with all that good stuff, fats, sugar, proteins, a large amounts of salt to enhance flavor.
The simple reason that all of human history untill very recent, getting food has been time and resource intensive. So we evolved to like anything that would keep us alive the longest.
