I don't know if we really truly like all the things that are "bad" for us. I think it's a love/hate relationship. We love it because it makes us feel good. But, we hate it because we become dependant upon it to feel good. By that time, the habit is no longer a concious choice.

I have come to look upon many things as potential drugs - sugar and other foods, nicotine, alcohol...

There is nothing wrong or right about them. It's how we use them that makes the difference.

One of my favourite quotes is from Einstein - You cannot solve a problem with the same mind that created it. It's a good one to meditate on.
