National Junk Food Day: 4 Seriously Sinful Snacks To Try On Day Devoted To Eating Unhealthy Meals [PHOTOS]
If there was ever a day to abandon a diet in favor of cheat day, today's National Junk Food Day may just be the one to do it.
It's unclear where the day gets its origins from, but it's clear it's a day to engorge and indulge on the kinds of foods that diet-savvy people usually avoid like the plague in order to ensure their health--and not feel guilty about it.
So whether the junk food you indulge in will be of the cookie, baked goods and candy variety from the store, or a highly fattening and clearly meant to appeal to a guilty pleasure food from a local restaurant or fast food place, here are 4 foods to try and eat in celebration:
Pizza Hut's Hot Dog Pizza
This may not still be available everywhere, but if you still have a local Pizza Hut that has it on the menu, this guilty pleasure pizza devoted to combining two classic American favorites--pizza and hot dogs--is a perfect thing to eat on National Junk Food Day.
A Seriously Sinful Milkshake
While you won't be able to head to Australia for one of those freak show milkshakes that have been taking the world by storm recently, there are definitely still bound to be some equally nuts options around the country at local eateries. Do some research and you're sure to find your own seriously crazy (and absolutely delicious) version of a Freak Show.
A Huge Piece of Cheesecake
When it comes to desserts, very little can be as sinful as cheesecake. There are so many different kinds and flavors these days that there's literally an option for anyone who can handle the rich creamy dessert from the gods.
Deep Fried Anything
While these snacks won't always be available for purchase and are usually reserved for state fairs and local carnivals, it's not hard to do for yourself. Pick up any guilty pleasure food you have that can handle being breaded and dipped in oil to be fried to a crispy golden texture--an Oreo, a donut, a pickle--anything is possible.
