By junk food, I mean packaged food like cookies/crackers, candy, drinks and the like.

I check the date most of the time, because even though it's rare for junk food to go bad it can. I know I have had a couple of bad experiances with bad junk food.

No reason to check expiration date as most junk food has so much artificial ingredients and preservatives that they will probably last forever.

YES!!!!!!!!! Dear Lord I will never forget the time my parents didn't and we were on a road trip with WAY expired Ding Dongs!!
The outside was ok, but the middle filling was that weblike mold.. UUuggggg....

Amazingly no. I obsessively check the expiration dates on everything else though (like milk, yogurt, cheese, meat, condiments, etc) However i will throw it out if it's been sitting on the shelf for more than 3 weeks.

YES! Quiznos is notorious for trying to push expired (like by 5 or 6 months) chips.
The taste may not be affected, since it is a prepared product, but still....

Yes because ingredients can cause you to have a stomach ache if they become too old or rancid
