/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I have a disgusting, shameful habit of going on sugar binges. I'll literally eat an entire box of fruit chews in one sitting, maybe even add some cookies.

If I do this during the day, I fall asleep shortly after. I assume this is true at night but it's not a noticeable symptom because I'm about to go to bed anyway.

Can someone tell me what about the sugar is causing me to fall asleep - and what other things might it be doing to my body besides making me a lardass and increasing my risk for diabetes.

Maybe this will help me say no once and for all. I'm thinking about never buying sugar again.

When I was a kid my mom would only give me so much candy, but now that I'm an adult I give myself all the candy I want and it's fucking repulsive. I need an intervention.
