If you take a look at my stomach – you can see that eating is not a problem for me. But as much as I enjoy food – the one thing I never find myself enjoying and never even have a desire for is “junk food”.

From candy to chocolate to anything even resembling sweets – not one thing from the “junk food” phylum ever seems to tickle my fancy. I don’t know why, but I have such a undesirable desire for “junk food” that you could put me inside a candy store with a five hundred dollar gift certificate – and I won’t buy a single thing.

As strange as that may sound to the rest of the “chocoholics” and “candymaniacs” that keep companies like M&M Mars and Hershey’s in business – I never find myself eating anything that even comes close to “junk food”. Maybe I will have popcorn during a movie, or chips and salsa at a party, but that’s as far as I go.

It’s not like sweets are not within my reach on a daily basis. My boss at work keeps her jar filled with candy every day – and now that Christine has been spending a lot of time in the house – my cabinet has been slowly filling with a myriad of sweets. It’s just that I would rather eat a raw steak or drink a cold beer then eat a Kit Kat or jelly beans.

But what really bothers me is that despite my distaste for sweets – both my teeth and my body act as if I eat a boatload of sweets every day. Every time I go to the dentist, I have a cavity – and my stomach seems to be growing at an ever expeditious rate even though I do avoid junk food.

I guess that not eating any junk food is not such a bad thing – now if I could only put down those cheeseburgers…
