anyone else not like candy?

Dear Summer

I'd rather eat fresh fruit over candy
I'd rather drink OJ over soda
I'd rather eat salmon over a hamburger
I'd rather snack on baby carrots over chips
and the list goes on

Have I been brainwashed?
I used to live with a health freak so it may have had some influence
 
I'm not a huge candy/junk food fan. Chips, brownies, cake, cookies, chocolate, etc. The only candy I would actually buy are gummy worms and Sweetarts both of which I rarely eat anyway.
 
<----- Just finished eating some Swedish Fish.
Only fish I'll touch. Refuse to eat anything from the sea, except blackened/cajun Mahi Mahi. 😉
 
i called homeland security and they're inviting you to a party.

Please lie on your stomach with your arms at your sides. A party associate will arrive shortly to collect
you for your party. Make no further attempt to leave the testing area. Assume
the 'Party Escort Submission Position' or you will miss the party.
 
i havent drank a soda (mixed with something else doesnt count right 😉 ) in almost 5 years. and i cant remember the last time i had a piece of candy, or a candy bar. but if i do give in to temptation, its only for reese's pieces or a reese's peanut butter cup that has been in the fridge. you're on your own for hamburgers though. ill put wimpy from the popeye comics to shame.

I do not actively seek out candy.

However, for me, there is a time for juice, then there is a time for soda.

same for veggies vs. snacks, or fish vs. red meat.
 
Sweets taste like nothing but sugar, cakes taste like sugar and salt, and fizzy 'soda' drinks just taste like shit. It's not even food. I don't see the point.
 
I am an "equal oppertunity" eater. I love, and rather often, crave "good for you" foods before chips or sweets, but I also will devour and enjoy a bad cheeseburger or greasy chicken wing.
My favorite foods include watermelon, cucumber and fish.
 
How can you not like junk food? Get off your high horses people and enjoy it!!!
(I eat healthy food too, but certainly enjoy some candy, a soda, a cake when the mood hits).

But sugar candy and drinks don't taste of anything - anything but sugar and chemicals anyway - how do you enjoy it? the only reason I'd eat that stuff would be for a sugar high, but frankly I'd rather just take drugs...
 
I love Reece's Peanut Butter Cups...

besides that though, don't care for candy so much.

I do like soda and hamburgers though...

They don't taste like anything? Whats an apple taste like? An apple? Whats an apple candy taste like? A sugary apple?
 
If the Dark Lord himself were to be summoned up in Reese's Peanut Butter Cup form, I would be the go-to guy to devour him and ensure his scourge was purged from the land.

Sorry about your luck there, pal.

Being healthy is considered brainwashed these days? Is that why so many people in America are obese?

I agree with that list. However, all the things on the left side are more expensive.

I'd be the last person to be on a high horse about food (beer snobs make me want to strangle them), but junk food just ain't my thing. I don't hate or, and usually will eat a bit if offered it, but I don't actively seek it out. It's not because of a health thing either, I love fast food (especially McDonald's) and don't watch what I eat. I could eat a ton of fruits and vegetables though, just what I naturally like.
 
I like the taste of junk food, but hardly ever eat it because I physically feel like crap after eating it.
