Does this sentence mean "I think the act of eating it is unhealthy" or does it mean "my habit of eating it is unhealthy"?
Can I use "and" instead of "or"?
"I like fast food, but it's not healthy. I don't like its smell or taste."
(I mean, at least here, it's spicy and with lots of different seasonings.)
 
All it tells us is that fast food is unhealthy. Common sense tells us that it's unhealthy only if you eat it. The words suggest nothing about anyone's habits.

I started a new thread for another question.

Oh, I thought it isn't. I already statered a new thread.
 
Changing post 3 has made my response in post 4 seem very strange. Please don't do that in future.
