Though many people understand that sugar is bad, our brains have been hardwired to crave it in our American culture.
There are many foods that utilise sugar that wouldn't normally have it. In American culture, everything is intensified, and that definitely goes for our food sources and manufacturers.
It's a shame that I completely stopped drinking soda, but after à while, i starter drinking it from time to time now. Not that often, but often enough for it to change my diet and weight. I have also been eating candy a bit too much. Damn butterfinger bites.
I'm going to try and phase this stuff out again within the next month. I feel like shit after eating the stuff. When I was consuming much less sugar, I felt so great.
What about cereal? I only drink water, rarely eat dessert, and never eat candy, but I eat big fuck-off bowels of cereal for breakfast and sometimes in the evenings if I'm feeling extraordinarily lazy.
I've managed to cut cereal out of my diet mainly. Not only is it expensive, it's a terrible food for breakfast unless it's a hot cereal or one of the health oriented ones. Usually, I would have some plain oatmeal with berries for flavor.
Cereal is so expensive if you look at the profit margins that companies have.
