Me, as a child: "I want to eat four KitKats at once."

My parents: "You'll give yourself a tummy ache and spend the rest of the day puking and shitting."

Me, as an adult: puking and shitting noises

Next comes the realization you can also buy quality treats.

You're welcome.

I used to have a kit Kat addiction and would eat a whole chocolate block sized bar of the stuff like this

[–] sga@lemmings.world 3 points 9 hours ago

I never even thought that i would call someone this, but you have forced me to. YOU BARBARIC!

I've resigned myself to having to only Fuck Nestle on most of their products. Perfect is the enemy of good.

[–] tja@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 hours ago

I don't think there is any Nestle product I need

The other side to that is realizing how sick you feel after eating three giant KitKats

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 34 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Doesn’t matter. The fourth will put it right.

[–] teft@piefed.social 2 points 14 hours ago

And the fifth brings you back to upset tummy.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Goddammit I originally put four and then edited to three LMAO

Shortly after moving out on my own I realized I could just buy broccoli and steam it and eat it whenever I want. Keep in mind I LOOOOOVED steamed broccoli; especially with lemon juice and butter.

I have binged on candy and felt awful afterwards but never in my life have I felt as miserable as I did the night after I ate a whole head of broccoli. The trapped gas in my abdomen literally made me wish I was dead.

…and my dumb ass had to do this twice before before I made the connection…

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

Dude, you know what's worse than trapped gas from broccoli? Trapped broccoli. Be careful.

[–] myrrh@ttrpg.network 7 points 16 hours ago

...that's mostly due to it being undercooked (or cooked-just-right in my opinion), which i learned the hard way after binging on a giant bag and fearing i needed to rush to the hospital until an absurdly-long-winded bout of flatulence relieved the pressure...

...if you overcook your broccoli it doesn't have the same effect...

Well being an adult is taking a giant bite through a bunch of giant kitkats, then putting the rest away for another day.

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (1 children)

Just wait until you realise there are FOUR Kit Kats in the image!

[–] bassomitron@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I think there's actually five, haha

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The best part about eating kit kats wrong is the look of disgust on everyone's faces as you do.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 8 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

There's no right way to eat a kit kat. Fuck nestle.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 4 hours ago

My friends sure seem to think there is.

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 27 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

But being an adult is realizing those choices are accommodated by consequences. Like all your friends giving you shit for being ‘lol random’.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

No! I specifically ordered my increased autonomy without any adulting! I demand a replacement or a refund!

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 8 points 20 hours ago

Refund granted and adult status revoked. Credits were added to your adult account, which requires you to be an adult to sign in! Have a good day. :)

I was 26 before I realised that I could have as much bacon as I wanted whenever I wanted.

[–] ook@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Tell that to your arteries at 35.

[–] MellowYellow13@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Nah, not if you eat like this. You prob unhealthy af

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

They say bring on the crestor lined bacon

[–] Coolbeanschilly@lemmy.ca 15 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Then you feel like trash the next morning because you starved your body of proper nutrition. If continued long term, you become a fat diabetic.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 6 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

If your body reacts this way from eating too many sweets once, then your problem started weeks before.

The human body needs way less nutrients than people generally assume.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

If I ate something like this, I'd feel awful in a matter of minutes, probably about 30. Oh, it would taste awesome until then.

I'm not diabetic, but hypoglycemia sucks balls. I can't even eat a fucking banana unless I've just had a meal. 😕

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 hour ago

How does a banana give you low blood sugar, and how could eating a meal (= more carbohydrates) help?

...one morning when i was in college, my roommate and i realised we were grown-ups, so we went to the grocery store, bought two tubs of frosting, came back to our apartment, sat down with spoons-in-hand, and watched an afternoon of arthur c. clarke's myterious world on the sci-fi channel...

(ugh; never again)

...i learned the same lesson chewing a jumbo-pack of fruit stripe all-at-once four years later...

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 11 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

We still live in a society governed by laws and morals.

Straight to jail.

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 10 points 20 hours ago

You're right, and it's a jail of diabetes.

[–] Juvyn00b@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

I was in college and loved Arby's beef and Cheddars. Ordered 5 at the drive through, ate them all within 20 minutes. Oof. I still remember how heavy they were.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

What weighs more, 5 Arby's beef and cheddar or 5 pounds of Tungsten? The 5 Arby's beef and cheddar, because you also gotta carry the weight of what you did to those Arby's workers

[–] myrrh@ttrpg.network 1 points 16 hours ago

...i spent a summer internship working at an office where arby's curly fries were the only vegetarian food within walking distance; haven't been able to stomach them since...

[–] ABetterTomorrow@sh.itjust.works 6 points 18 hours ago

It’s funny till you been a grown up too long and you get either disgusted or scared of this lol.

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 8 points 20 hours ago

Anyone else just randomly bought a cake and ate the whole thing?

Being an adult isn't all bad.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Choosing to by a psycho is definitely a choice.

When I started living on my own I baked a whole thing of cinnamon rolls and ate them all.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 5 points 21 hours ago

Man was it nice to fill up a shopping cart with ALL THE SWEETS and no-one could stop me.

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 2 points 19 hours ago

Who eats a kit-cube starting from a corner?!
