I have no idea, but take comfort in the fact that you are not alone! My daughter ALWAYS wants junk food. I even tell her no more junk food and she will cry and say "I want junk food!" I have been givig her tons of yummy healthy snacks since she could eat, but that doesn't seem to matter. I can only guess that maybe it's because it is so limited and I don't let her just pig out on junk food (she's only 3). But sometimes I wonder if I should just let her pig out and then maybe it won't be so exciting and she won't want it so much. I don't know...let me know if somethig works for you!
