What's Your Guilty Pleasure?

damselnat

So what are people's little secret non-vegan/vegetarian things that you take a guilty sort of pleasure in? A leather handbag you love but know you shouldn't, those lovely scented candles you *forgot* to check, remembering how you loved the feel of your mother's old fur coat, popping a few surreptitious marshmallows into your hot chocolate, going to the zoo......for me it's my boyfriend's eiderdown duvets, I lie there knowing I shouldn't love the way they feel all snuggled up in them, all comfy and warm and guilty, but excuse myself by telling myself they're his blankets, not mine, so it doesn't count......
So what are everyone else's guilty little pleasures?;)

I went to the zoo, didn't feel particularly happy about it. Don't indulge in anything else you say.

There are leather seats and steering wheel in my vehicle but I take no pleasure from it.
I give a thought to the animal concerned most times I take the wheel. I do not like it.

Gelatine is an animal based product, and damned good it is too.

Was sick a bit awhile back, and now playing catch-up at university. So no Irish season's greetings for me this year... will wait till summer.

Oh... my ultimate guilty pleasure (to eat... not other things;)) are fresh plump strawberries dipped in chocolate. Whoa!

Has to be cheese for me! Eggs, milk and yoghurt I can very happily live without, but a bit of cheese every once in a while is brilliant though over the past few months I've felt sick any time I have it. Might be something to do with the fact that when I do eat it I eat a lot of it...

Guinness and wine would be mine.

jellies.

im cutting them out fully in the new year, going properly vegan. i will now admit to buying more icecream/yoghurt/jellies now, while im still 'allowed' (yes i know im only fooling myself, but shhh! it's working!)
