I've always wondered why it has to be that way with food, and the unhealthiest foods out there (donuts and french fries) tastes so awesome, but healthy foods (I'm not saying all of them, I'm just saying in general) such as cooked spinach tastes horrible. Can someone explain to me why this world has to be so unfair with food?Flaming_Ape
ha ha. I think that all the time.:lol: Guess it's like......part of the law of physics or something.
Are you kidding? Celery > Cake.EgongaWhat about celery IN the cake? Genius. If it worked for carrots, it must work for celery.
Your brain is programmed to love fat, carb rich foods since that gives you the most energy. It was a good survival mechanism back thousands of years ago when people were nomadic and foraged for their food. If you came across a freshly killed deer, it helped if you ate as much of it as you physically could so you could live long enough to get to the next large food supply. These days, however, food isnt in short supply, but that drive to eat fatty foods is still there, and that drive manifests itself in 20oz steaks tasting great while a salad tastes mediocore in comparision.gameguy6700But then why do things like Pop-tarts and Jolly Ranchers taste so good then? Sure they weren't around thousands of years ago...

They almost drove the frosted ones into extinction a couple hundred years ago, but thankfully their numbers have come back.
I hate steak. But I love salad.GameBoy966
