Social Sweets

"Enjoy social sweets only. Eating cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and pie always tastes better (and carries less guilt) when you are in a group rather than solo. Plus you're not likely to eat as much of that favorite sweet treat when you're in good company."

~ Dawn Jackson Blatner, quoted from the Flexitarian Diet p. 63

Personally, I like to skip the sweets when I'm out because I know they aren't cutting the fat and sugar or using fiber rich substitutes for processed white flour. BUT one thing I can do is take my treats to others who would appreciate them and eat them there instead of eating them at home.
