How do you keep yourself from eating all your candy-stash in one sitting? - eviltoast

Many of you have either been trick or treating themselves or have leftover candy from handing it out for halloween.

How do you keep from eating all available candy in one go?

How do you portion out just one serving size of potato crisp and then let the rest of the bunch survive long enough to see dawn? How do you do it?

    Personally I’ve found that “how do I stop myself from doing a Kirby impression on this junk food?” is the wrong question.

    Consider asking instead, “what am I trying to get by devouring it all?” Followed by, “is there a more helpful way to meet that need?”

    Me, I like to eat for sensory enjoyment/stimulation. So I use the other senses instead, with things like music or a melting wax tart or a reusable bubble wrap toy.
