I'm an addict. And I am addicted to nachos. Studies show that eating copious amounts of nachos has a profound neurological impact on all organisms with a taste for ersatz Tex-Mex. Plus, nachos makes you fat and ugly and give you heart disease. In spite of the obvious risks of being fat and ugly and getting heart disease, I cannot stop eating nachos.
Anyway, nachos were making me fat and ugly and giving me heart disease, so I switched to low-calorie chips with low-fat cheese so that I can remain healthy in spite of my pathetic addiction, which fills me with such shame that I cannot help but declare, "I'm an addict!" whenever anyone talks about nachos.
Now a friend of mine is interested in trying my low-fat, low-calorie nachos, and I'm faced with the most profound moral dilemma that I've ever faced in my life as an addict. Should I encourage it or discourage it?
Keep in mind, this person is an adult, and has never eaten nachos in her life. What's more, my friend is healthy and is neither fat nor ugly.
For my part, I feel fine eating my low-calorie Nachos, because it's a replacement for the high-calorie Nachos that was making me fat and ugly and giving me heart disease. But what about a person who's never had nachos? Nachos just aren't natural. Shouldn't she avoid it altogether?
I just don't know. I wish eating low-calorie nachos would make me just as wise as it does healthy.
