I was explaining this to my daughter in quite simplified terms the other day- we evolved to taste sugar and enjoy it because finding a sweet edible plant meant we had a source of energy to help us hunt that day. Pretty useful if you’re a hunter-gatherer.

So we seek out sugar. Now we can get it whenever we want it, in much more massive quantities than we are supposed to be processing. Most of us are addicted. I’m not an exception.

    I love a biscuit breakfast Sammy. I can buy one for 3 bucks, or spend 20 dollars and 2 hours making a less good one

      Pro-tip: Wal-Mart’s BAGGED, frozen buttermilk biscuits (Great Value brand) are proper biscuits. They’re really good, especially if you put a little butter on top and bottom before baking. And after baking. And while eating.
