What food is like crack to you?

I recently discovered Halo ice cream and was delighted by how delicious it is whilst still being pretty low calorie. The problem is that it’s so delicious I can’t eat a normal portion size. I thought I’d give moderation another go tonight but nope, I’ve just eaten nearly a whole tub of Gooey Chocolate Brownie. Totally defeats the object. The peanut butter one is the worst (best).

What food is like crack to you??

@beigebrownblue

I wouldn't know. I've never tasted any 'crack' and don't intend to.

ever.

why are you likening food to crack?

food is food.
crack is a highly addictive substance which is also illegal and potentially very damaging to families and individuals.

Do you need medical assistance?

Hmm Don't knock it until you've tried it, beigebrownblue: crack's a great way of losing weight.

Some food is made to be very addictive. Just like drugs.

Pomme bear Crisps. I used to buy the multi packs of 6 bags 'for the D.C.' and could easily eat all 6 bags on my own in an evening. . I haven't had them for years. Too tempting.

M&S Peanut Butter and Caramel chocolate chunkies.

Cheese

I can't help it. I was doing a diet a few years ago and went to a work event with a buffet provided. Those cheese sandwiches were like crack - and I said that at the time!

And chocolate but I don't get as much enjoyment as I do from cheese, but is verging into the addiction scenario.

And I don't ever just have a bit. I eat u til. I'm full! So a whole pack of biscuits or a massive 200g bar of choc.
