Don’t shop while hungry! For some reason I went down the cookie aisle and spotted Murray brand sugar free cookies. The chocolate covered crisps looked especially tempting and I found myself reasoning, “They don’t have sugar. It’s not real chocolate.”
Eating them wouldn’t be like eating sweets since they are sweetened with NutraSweet brand sweetener. I was hungry and came that close to getting them—but experience won out.
I’ve eaten many packages of Murray chocolate whatever cookies in the past and always felt terrible afterwards. I knew that if I left the store without them and ate my pistachios instead, I’d forget all about the Murray cookies. And that’s just what happened.
