So I was just going into some over sized Tuperware for something to snack on while i do some homework before i go to bed. After opening the cover the first thing my eyes lay on is a box of Quaker Chewy bars in chocolate chip and peanut butter chip flavor variety pack. Eager, but undecided on which flavor to choose i reach for the box and underneath find another box.
100 Calorie pack variety-- chips ahoy, oreo, and nutter butter. Those "cookies" in 100 calorie pack form. In my social awareness of what my decision should be I had to reprimand myself for even thinking about the Chewy and not automatically go for the "healthier" choice that is already a late night/early morning death snack.
Begrudgingly i put back my two Chewy contenders and sadly grabbed a calorie count chips ahoy. Realizing that i should check out the Chewy's just to be fair. I picked up the box and checked the small spreadsheet.
Chocolate
chip
Calories____________ 100
Glory spread through my veins. My social conscious had lifted and the Gods said it was acceptable for me to eat the Chewy. It was the same as the health conscious snack on the go 100 calorie pack. Just because of that allowance, i ate two. First the chocolate chip and then the peanut butter chip.
No decisions necessary.
For once i didn't have to follow the need to always be carb and calorie counting and it didn't have to prevent me from enjoying the snack i really wanted because it wasn't labeled as better for me than something else.
Then I ate a third one, chocolate chip again. Because I don't care about watching what i eat and i was still hungry
