A rather random poll. Do you like fig newtons?
I'm sitting in my dorm room...being a hermit. It's the week before finals here and somehow I'm convinced that if I pretend I don't have a 12 page paper, german final, econ final, and a 7 page paper that it will all just go away... I've spent the entire afternoon (except for a break for my injury rehab) watching old episodes of the show Alias and periodically snacking on diet coke and fig newtons.
Then I got to wondering.
Why do I like fig newtons?
I mean it's a fruit cookie. A fruit cookie. That's just weird. If someone offered me a cookie and said it's made out of figs...I wouldn't eat it. I'd be like....figs? Eh...no thanks give me chocolate. But fig newtons...so good....
Alright. So the poll is. Do you like fig newtons?
And...as an added question...what's your favorite guilty snack food that you know you should eat but do it anyway?

Of course we all love Fig Newtons! What a noble fruit! With such a storied past!
I encourage all fig doubters to visit THE HISTORY OF THE FIG
Yet, there are some pigheaded holdouts who contend that the wholesome and decent Fig is not so innocent - indeed, there are those that would argue that the Fig is even an abomination! At your own risk, visit GOD HATES FIGS
But don't believe 'em, we know that nothin' beats some ground fig wrapped in a soft cookie shell.
