Sodas, beer, and what you call "junk food" can be consumed in moderation without generating anything like the enormous amount of death and disease associated with tobacco.

Beer is good for you, maybe even should be considered a health care product.
Don't know how it is now, but when I was a kid, any person that had a heart attack was told by their doctor to drink two beers a day. Down thru the times, that morphed to wine, then any type of alcohol . My mom's dr told her to have at least one drink a day and that was just a couple of years ago.
I'm sure big pharma would rather you take pills instead , tho.
Soda is good for heart burn or indigestion.
If, however , you are a yankee and were referring to Cokes, I agree, they aint' good for you.
