Eating healthy is one thing. Fooling yourself into eating foods that taste like the unhealthy food, but may be healthy, is just a weird path to take.

Is the idea of eating food for enjoyment so foreign to you that you wouldn't understand why we eat foods for reasons other than absolute minimum nutritional needs?

Not really foreign at all. I love good tasting food, healthy or not. More from the point of view that I don't need my carrot to taste like bbq steak. I'd rather eat a bbq steak.

So what makes you think the people eating these things are only eating them for health reasons?
