Not junk food in the sense of more desirable, but a less healthful form of calories.
But that implies that it's unhealthy, which it isn't.
Hell, there's research to show that common ejaculation is helpful in preventing prostate cancer.
The only problem is when you let it affect your life. And you reach a problem with extremely high levels - I wouldn't call twice a day a problem.
Masturbation fulfills a need. It allows you to moderate your sex drive. If you're with someone who only gets off once a week, so be it. If you want more, it's an easy problem to fix.
Men, in general, aren't monogamous. We are hardwired into looking, and masturbation can help to keep it at that.
Dude, examine the metaphor more closely. Everyone knows that junk food is healthier than starvation.

This graph was interesting:
Furthermore, the evidence that it is bad consists of two anecdotes, one from a true addict (which is a problem), and one from a man who stopped for less than two weeks. As far as quitting goes, the trouble is that there is no reason aside from willpower in most cases. You save (at most) half an hour or so, during which you probably wouldn't have done anything anyway. What you get in return is orneriness and frustration.
Remember: people have sex drives. They aren't bad. Fulfilling them isn't bad either. Just keep it in moderation if it starts to interfere with life.
