    The other side to that is realizing how sick you feel after eating three giant KitKats

      Shortly after moving out on my own I realized I could just buy broccoli and steam it and eat it whenever I want. Keep in mind I LOOOOOVED steamed broccoli; especially with lemon juice and butter.

      I have binged on candy and felt awful afterwards but never in my life have I felt as miserable as I did the night after I ate a whole head of broccoli. The trapped gas in my abdomen literally made me wish I was dead.

      …and my dumb ass had to do this twice before before I made the connection…

        …that’s mostly due to it being undercooked (or cooked-just-right in my opinion), which i learned the hard way after binging on a giant bag and fearing i needed to rush to the hospital until an absurdly-long-winded bout of flatulence relieved the pressure…

        …if you overcook your broccoli it doesn’t have the same effect…

      Well being an adult is taking a giant bite through a bunch of giant kitkats, then putting the rest away for another day.
