Fran's Indulgences

摘要

Indulgence foods appear to fall in categories, grouped roughly by demographics. If we are what we eat, then what we eat, under particular circumstances, is also categorized by who we are. How we indulge ourselves depends on our complex history of reactions to foods. Foods carry specific responses—they make us happy because we ate them when we were happy, they comfort us because they were treats for times when we didn't feel well, and they serve as rewards for a variety of reasons that we probably shouldn't explore.
