On Friday I was hanging at
SMC for a bit while
Bowman and
Mike Yozell were scarfing down some cheeseburgers and fries fries from
Five Guys Burgers & Fries. We were discussing some dietary issues -
HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) vs. Sucrose (real sugar). Apparently
HFCS is the downfall of the country per
Mike. Then
Mark's wife was there and told me how bad
Aspartame is for you. From the way she explained
Aspartame - it confuses your brain with zero calorie sweet tasting stuff, allowing you to overeat sugary stuff because your brain doesn't automatically tell you you're full.
Using this thought, as I drink a fair amount of
Diet Pepsi, I though it could explain why my new favorite junk food choice is this;
Mike informed me I'm just weak! Clearly I am weak because as I'm writing this I'm drinking a
Diet Pepsi and eating 4 Butterfinger minis (1 serving) only 180 calories. I guess I'll work it off tomorrow at the
Derby.
