On the way back to school from Manhattan, a few of the girls decided we should stop for some lunch. We went up and down Prince Street a few times and we came across a restaurant called Delicatessen. It was a small little place that is a ultramodern diner and sold what most traditional American restaurants sell. I was in the mood for a nice, juicy cheeseburger. I am usually the one to go for a salad or something in that nature, but since we were off campus, I figured, why not?

The meal was so well prepared and it really clenched my appetite. There is nothing more tantalizing than a juicy piece of fresh grounded meat. The burger was layered in iceberg lettuce, onions, tomatoes and it was covered with melted slices of cheese that oozed over the sides of the toasted, slightly browned buns. This came with a side of fries and a pickle that was cut in half. On top of that I used ketchup to complete the taste of my burger.

One of the best feelings is finally obtaining the meal you have been craving for a while. I am so programed to automatically go for a “healthier choice” of food, that I sort have forgot what it was like to stuff my face with a nice, juicy cheese burger. In psychology, we have been discussing that there is really no such thing as a “healthy” or “unhealthy” food. If you eat the “unhealthy” foods in small proportions and control what you eat each day, body weight will maintain consistent. If a person eats big portions of high calorie dense food, they’re more likely to be at risk of overeating and obesity.
