wild body

aaahhh.....ice cream bars.....and you'll notice they are on sale. it turns out they have been on sale since i moved here. i didn't know this until a couple of weeks into my obsession. the first time i realized these dangerous treats were 50% off, i went straight back to the freezer and bought 10 more. then i got so worried that the sale would end that i ran down to the store the very next day and bought another 10 more.....just to have the freezer stocked to feel safe and secure. (this is very important for us who were born with the sun in cancer, our bodies are eternally ruled by our bellies) well, i went through all 20 of those bars in probably a week's time. mind you, this was the hottest, most humid week of the summer.....but despite that, i began to notice this could become a serious health issue. so, i only bought 7 ice cream bars the next week. i figured it would be virtually harmless to let myself have one per day. well, on one of those lazy summer days i decided to look at the wrapper. to my horror there were about 300 ingredients listed, all in korean, of course, so i could not decipher a single one. that was when i realized this really could turn into a serious health issue. so i quit, then and there, cold turkey. i gave my last two ice cream bars away to friends which sealed the deal. believe me, it was and is not easy. and the one that still gets me is the "wild body." coffee ice cream with dark chocolate rippling through it. aaahhh, it's almost too good to be true. but, when the craving hits, i just remember brown dye #10 and high fructose corn syrup.....that pretty much takes care of it.
