Last minute temptation.



The best way to sell is to attract at the last minute with cheap items. No matter how reliable the supermarket you go to, they all have the counters by the cash registers, enticing you while you wait in line.

We all know it is junk food but I was stunned by what was there. How oxymoronic is a Cookie Dough Balance Protein!? Cookie dough (no matter how delicious) is not supposed to be eatable raw so using it as a flavor for a more or less healthy snack seems completely absurd; yet there it is. It is so ridiculous that I find it comical but if it is there it is because people buy it. All I hope is that nobody buys such a thing with the intention of eating something nutritious.

Agreeing that weight issues is its purpose (isn’t this the point of nutritious bars?), are we really in a society that lazy and frankly that stupid to believe that a cookie dough bar is helpful? Nonsense. A healthy diet can be a way out of physical exercise but this does not correspond at all. No change can happen without an effort. Sorry for those consumers but no one deserves to ameliorate his or her physical condition when buying such an item.

In any case, this discovery affirmed that the worst items are the ones that seem the most appetizing, which is why they are placed so strategically.
