What is it with people and potato chips? Talk about junk food. I grew out of that junk, so I don't understand why adults still eat it.

In general, why would you eat something you know will harm you instead of help you, whether it's potato chips, Pop-Tarts, an ice cream sandwich, etc. Is it ignorance -- i.e., people aren't really aware eating junk is worse than eating nothing? Are people just that lacking in self-discipline? Or what?

I don't get it. If I eat something that tastes good, but I know it's bad for me, I'm not going to enjoy it. The knowledge that I'm poisoning myself hurts more than the ice cream taste feels good. I would think it'd be the same for everyone. What about you, Anonymous? Do you ever think about this stuff?
