I don't eat them. I don't keep foods in my house that are trigger foods or would tempt me to eat more of them.
My one old leader spoke about this often.
Her thing was cookies. She could eat an entire box of cookies if it was in her house. So cookies in the house were not an option.
If she really wanted a cookie, she was certainly allowed to go out and buy one or two gourmet cookies and eat them outside of her home. But they were NOT allowed in her house.
I think about that in terms of a lot of dessert type foods. If I want real ice cream, I can go and get some great ice cream locally. If I want one of something, I can always go out and get one of something. I don't have to keep it in my house.
