I’ve talked about the problem with fake foods, 100-motherf*cking Calorie Packs, and artificial sweeteners before, but I’m afraid some hoes just aren’t getting the message. Increasingly, as I deal with this topic, I find myself closing my eyes and rubbing my temples in frustration like my mother does when she talks to me about spending less money.
Not getting it yet? Fine. Let’s try a new approach. Eating fake sugar is like using a vibrator.

“The real thing doesn’t taste that great either.” Haha, love that line!

I have never really taken the time to learn much about “artificial” things because the calories are less! But after hearing your comparisons and reading your blog for the past three weeks I am really going to try and kick the habit! Thanks!
Vanessa, your comment has made my day! If I can get one person to stop living on artificial sweeteners, then I truly feel like openly discussing um, taste, is worth it!
I always have to tell you my favorite line, and this one is a clear winner:
“A dick produced on an assembly line is not the same as a dick produced by the hands of G-d.”
Brilliant!!!! Hilarious video and you know that I especially agree with you on ALL counts.

LOVE.
Although…. I need to work on my Splenda habit, might have to give up coffee though to do that! Its the only time I use Splenda any more.
I love that song! Umm, I love my vibrator, but as you said it leaves you craving the real thing, and it is not the same. I guess I give it credit for reducing my sluttiness while I was single, but now it’s kind of depressing. However, all your points about fake sugar, 1000% true, any diet coke addicts knows it makes them crave sweetness like nobody’s business.

I <3 this!! You are hilarious, but also 100% correct! Fake sugars definitely suck. Maybe I shouldn't have that diet coke today
ahhhhh YES finally a flippin person who understandss! YOU JUST MADE MY FRIDAY. so glad i found your blog, plan to do some back skimming. i cannot stand people dousing EVERYTHING they eat with splenda, nutrasweet, truvia, dextrose, ____ose (whatever the junk chemical) fertility takers are! i dont thin kpeopel realize they are so freaking ADDICTED to the taste of sweet from anythign that when it is artificial they crave it EVEN more and use it on everything and it’s giving them the same physiological response freakin sugar would have!

OMG I snorted my breakfast watching this! Wish I could show my coworkers but they’d have to go off and be sanctified by shouting baptists/Laxmi/the hand of Allah and it just wouldn’t be worth it to risk their damnation for their love of fake sugary bidness!
