Egg Nog, for me.
It used to excite me in the past that when October rolls around, I’m anticipating when and how early I’m to see those egg nog cartons and bottles come out. I always try to get as much time in with it as I can between October and December.
But lately, I tried drinking some and the thickness of the drink itself, takes some to get through. It just makes you feel fuller and when you think you’ve got room in your body for it and you drink it, you feel disgusted. But overall, just drinking through the thickness of it, ugh.
People always say to people wanting to cut down on eating unhealthy foods is “well, prepare meals and cook food”. Well, the problem with that is A) gathering ingredients collectively are expensive. B) not everyone has the time to whip up a meal during a busy life. C) There’s like too many recipes out there to even count and a lot of them require this, this, that, maybe this, some of that, and a little more. Guess what? That’s more money to spend.
So combined all that, you’re looking to maybe spend about $25 ~ $100 or more to prepare these ‘simple meals’ where, it doesn’t hurt to grab a $5 sub from wal-mart’s deli.
