Junk foods are full of fats and sugars (in form of high fructose corn syrup, modified corn starch, etc.) that are easily digestible. They also easily turn into body fat and if you start a habit of eating this kind of food you can become predisposed to overeating. As Banzhaf says, "once they grow extra fat cells, their bodies become accustomed to having that fat. Those fat cells never die, and even if you lose weight they lie dormant and constantly try to get you to eat more. It's not an addiction exactly, but it doesn't leave people with a completely free choice in what they eat, either."

Junk is indeed tasty and everyone loves it, but it's not its taste but what it is made of. Lipids and oil enter to the body. They cause what people call "addiction." Unless the body can be controlled it will never stop craving for more.
