Guilty pleasures

[ailbhe]

My worst one has to be baths.

Second to that is buying food, usually bagels, from mainstream supermarkets, especially Tesco, which I've finally caved in and done this month. Not a whole grocery shop, but bits and pieces.

And first-hand toys, especially ones with plastic in, especially if they don't offset the evil by being from Oxfam or UNICEF or similar.

I'm not really ashamed of any of it, but I do recognise it as being in direct opposition to my ideals, and I try to minimise it. Except the baths. I've had a bath (varying depths, but more than a shower) most days this past fortnight.

What do you do that you know you oughtn't?

Your guilty pleasures are not very evil.

What are mine...also baths, though I don't have time very often :(

Cakes, biscuits, etc etc etc - mainly because I eat them at work in between meals which doesn't do my teeth much good. However, in a similar line to "at least theft is not as bad as murder" - at least I've given up drinking fruit juice instead of water all day now.

Getting the bus when I could feasibly cycle.

Oh yes chillis. Cannot sustainably grow them here, still want to eat them. And fish, because it is all endangered but I cannot stop wanting sushi.

We have access to sustainably farmed organic fish. It's at sustainably farmed organic prices, mark you.

It costs a fair bit more than red meat.

Ooh, that sounds good. Where is it from?

[ailbhe]

We get it from True Food, who get it from Graig Farm, but I don't recall where GF get it.

Thanks! I will have a dig when I have some spare energy...
