Probably not all of them but here goes:
Potato wedges & chips,
fried sausages (or fried potato dumplings),
bottom half of a white-bread hamburger roll,
fried onion & tomato mix,
slice of Kraft "cheddar" cheese,
underneath the cheese and almost invisible, probably a ball of deep fried mince meat,
1/3 piece of boiled or steamed corn on the cob,
in background, some kind of sweet, possibly a cheesecake with choc icing,
a non-specific drink.
Looks like my idea of a fast trip to heart disease, knee replacements, diabetes,
and all the other agonies that arise from obesity.

@Zonuss I agree about natural foods prepared of cooked in the right way.
But white bread is never healthy: white flour has had all its vitamins stripped, has no roughage and promotes the growth of bad gut bacteria. It has empty carbs only. The healthiest bread is made with stone-ground whole-wheat or with the addition of other whole-grain cereals and seeds. The same applies to pasta, and white versus brown rice
Healthy food is about balance. We need lots of fresh raw and steamed veggies with delicious savoury sauces, lots of fresh fruit, enough protein per day to cover the palm of one's hand, a tablespoon of poly and unsaturated oils (inc. Omega 3), and only two dice worth of a single saturated fat. Eating fresh whole foods ensures that we get all our vitamins, minerals and roughage easily, develop good gut bacteria, and don't absorb the myriad chemical additives that go into pre-cooked or highly processed foods
Unless an adult is doing masses of exercise or physical work, they need only a very small proportion of starch in a meal. Certainly not several types of starch in large serves.
Most hamburger meat is high in fully saturated fat.
Sugar, as in the "chocolate cake", rots the teeth and gums, ages the body and face by 5 years, induces cravings for more, and helps set the person up for long term serious health issues.
Most nutritionists say that an 80% healthy diet is okay, and that occasional unhealthy foods as treats is okay.
But the reality is that hunter-gatherers had very little access to honey, and whole fruits were only available in season and often picked off by birds while green. Thus the human was never evolved to cope with sugar the way it is commonly eaten in American culture.
US govt statistics show that 60% of the American population is overweight. Even worse, the rate of childhood obesity has risen alarmingly, with the average lifespan of this generation likely to be 5 years shorter than that of their parents.
Sorry if this rave seems like too much - but really, this is an issue which affects everyone's health and well-being.
