Sugar is addictive. It releases huge amounts of dopamine when you eat it, which is weird because it's so bad for you in a host of ways.
But from an evolutionary perspective, sugar was rare. It was a prized commodity that meant energy and calories, what our distant ancestors needed to survive. So our brains learned to prioritize sugar-laden foods.
It's not your fault. I mean, discipline is pretty useful skill to develop, but it's literally our monkey brains tricking us into loading up on sweet stuff. It's one reason why a lot of food companies put sugar into their products. Bread, yogurt, cereal, sauces. They want you buying more of their sh#t, so they hijack your brain using sugar

Only half a pack??? 😋 Don't worry about it, you could be doing much worse.

Munchies without the high. Seriously though, don't sweat it. ✌️

@apersonnamedit Nothing wrong with that, so long as you watch what you eat. Sounds like you’re doing that. If you ate the whole pack, I’d say that’s excessive, lol.

@Ducky omg one time when i was a kid my dad ate an entire row of oreos and blamed it on my brother. My brother was rather chubby at the time and loved sweets too. This is the same man who would hide oreos in his work bag so nobody else could have any

@apersonnamedit What a jerk! Sounds like your dad could use a few slams.
