    Yup. That's the way it works. People usually automatically think fast food is the debil. It's just calories, no need for labels.

    I wouldn't even call it junk food. The macros aren't bad and you're getting at least 3 of the major food groups. :)

    It depends on how many calories you have to work with in a day on whether I'd consider it junk food. If eating one whopper uses up the bulk of my days calories and I can't eat much of anything else for the rest of the day then I'd consider it a bad move. But if you have a ton of calories to eat through and can still stay within your limit, Then I guess it's okay.
