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).

Bakery cookies, the ones you get in a bag of five. I have a bad habit of buying them 'for the family' but the only family member who eats them is me Blush

Op, listen to the 'halo' episode of a podcast called 'maintenance phase'! It's a. Really funny, clever and well hosted podcast about weightloss shite. The halo episode is brilliant!

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?

@Whenitsjustyourclockreading505

M & M’s salted caramel. A friend raved about them, I shovel them in by the handful. The texture…..the crunch followed by the chewy sweetness then the hit of saltiness mmmmm. I’m cursing that friend! Angry
I second this. I'm so glad/sad that I can't find them where I am anymore.

Brie on crackers with salted butter. It's hard not just to have one more.. and another after that.
