    No. You could live on it without getting fat. It's about the number of calories you take it versus the number you burn.

    What's wrong with healthy foods. I like popcorn no butter, fruits and vegies, even a slice of low fat cheese.
    I love to freeze grapes and eat as snacks. You don't need junk foods. Yes they will make you fat.
    Celery and carrot sticks work too.

    Firstly, any food can make you fat if you eat enough of it. Secondly, probably the definition of getting fat I would use is the intake of energy via consumption in relation of the exercise you do on a daily basis. Every looked at an athletes diet? While this is an extreme case, it shows that you can eat more food, even junk food if you do more exercise. Junk foods will make you fat quicker yes, because of the concentration of high sugars and fat, but it will not make you fat if you do the equivalent exercise.

    They're called junk foods for a reason! Depending on a number of other factors (quantity consumed, exercise, genetics, etc.) they might make you fat, but even if they don't they're not going to nourish your body very well, and if you don't look after yourself from the inside then you might get fat as an indirect result of that.

    Disagreeing with thriftymaid, I say Yes.

    The ingredients usually going into junk food are just that, Junk. Fats and starches low in nutritional value, covered over with spicing to give it some appeal.

    So on a diet of junk food only you would have to eat more in order to cover your need for vitamins, minerals, etc.
    And if you are not very physically active, that 'more' will make you fat.
