I'm craving nachos with jalapeños right now. Does that make me a bad person?

Asked by Kardamom (33494points) July 6th, 2014

I know they’re not good for me, and it’s really hot here, and they’re really messy, but I’m craving them anyway.

Are there any foods that you guys sometimes crave that actually make you question whether you are a bad person for wanting that particular item?

When I was in the hospital I snuck off to the vending machines and ordered 5 chocolate bars and a couple bags of potato chips… then I went off to the café and purchased two microwaved hamburgers…. then I went to the lounge and bought half a blueberry pie and some water… then I went back to my dorm for supper.

@talljasperman Wow! I’m surprised nobody caught you, ha ha.

@Kardamom I did it several times… they got mad when I ordered pizza and wings and shared it with the other patients. They told me that since I had pizza that I didn’t need supper. So I needed to sneak that pizza and I would sell slices for two dollars a piece and the pizza paid for itself.

Why are they messy? Chips with some melted cheese and a jalapeño on top? Maybe some refried beans on them. Maybe yours are messy, but mine aren’t. What do you do, make messy layers of sour cream and guacamole? You don’t use that icky drippy cheese do you?

I don’t feel bad I just feel like I am killing myself.

For a few months when I was pregnant, I wanted milkshakes every day. I think there is a certain point at which having a milkshake a day, every day, becomes bad.

I rarely eat junk food, but I could not pass up these Oreos when I noticed them in the store the other day. I walked about 10 feet before I turned around and grabbed them. I felt so bad, but they were so good.

I’ve never made nachos at home with the messy, drippy bright orange cheese, but I do sometimes order them at Taco Bell and they’re super messy.

Kardamom's avatar

@talljasperman Oh yeah, honey buns!!! I almost feel like I should get in the car and drive to the store to go and get some of them.

Groan! I love nachos, especially with beans and meat too. Sigh. Never have them anymore.

I don’t think wanting nachos makes you one of Satan’s minions.

@filmfann are you sure???

Satanists, all of you!

Kardamom! I should have KNOWN! I knew you worshiped the Devil, stay BACK! Also can I have some chips, I’m hungry.

Well, I guess you’re not really a bad person. I had to think about it, though.
I often crave Krispy Kreme cream filled donuts with chocolate on top . Doesn’t make me feel like a bad person, though, but one who needs to get some work done around here and dream of celery sticks instead.

Only in the sense that I sometimes crave things manufactured in ways I don’t like to support.

Fair trade chocolate, for example, can’t entirely replace real chocolate for me. It doesn’t taste the same.

Most often, I have this problem with tulips. No, I don’t eat tulips. I love tulips, but I’m opposed to buying any non-organic flowers. In tulip season, I slink past the flower shop every day, not buying anything…but crushed by that. About once a year, I give in to temptation.
