Food cravings are a funny thing. I don't know if it's like this with everyone else, but I try to hold out, yet somehow I always end up indulging in whatever I'm hungry for. This was the case a couple of weeks ago. Zach and I had just finished in the cafeteria, and we had set off to do homework. I had been studying for several hours when I began to get hungry. I decided that in order to prevent further distraction, I had better find a snack.
As I opened the cabinet, I eyed the can of Hormel chili sitting on the shelf, and then I automatically thought of chili fries. In fifteen minutes, Zach and I were on our way to Walmart to buy a bag of fries, and a block of cheddar cheese. Pretty soon, we were elbow deep in cheesy, chili goodness. As I sat there satisfied with my plateful of fries, I thought about how guilty I felt for indulging, but then I realized a simple truth: indulgence is quite alright. It's over indulgence that one has to worry about. That night I reaffirmed my belief that I could eat whatever I want, but only in moderation.
