It’s National Junk Food Day

Today is the day you can eat whatever you want, and it’s totally fine, because it’s National Junk Food Day!

It’s celebrated every July 21 here in the United States.

In case you’re wondering what exactly qualifies as “junk food,” here’s the definition from the Oxford Dictionary.

Junk food, noun: food that has low nutritional value, typically produced in the form of packaged snacks needing little or no preparation.

So, we’re talking potato chips, candy bars, cookies, donuts, dips, fries, ice cream, the list goes on and on!

Today is your perfect excuse for a cheat day – so treat yourself without feeling guilty about it!
