The reason it's bad for you is the same reason all other junk food is bad for you: half of it is oils and there's too much sodium. To much Oils are terrible for the body because they're inflammatory.

Huh? That entirely depends on the oil. Olive oil isn't inflammatory at all, and is extremely healthy. Hydrogenated oils, on the other hand, are pretty horrible for you.
