I agree with you. It's also worth noting that this isn't unique to anything discussed here. EVERYONE has their line in the sand on a huge array of issues, and that line falls differently for a lot of people.

Environment, religion, war, medicine; everything has a personal line associated with it.

Lots of things create and feed addictions, including baking cookies.

Let’s not confuse the issue. Just because you find something distasteful doesn’t mean it’s bad or morally problematic.

I've never seen a homeless person in Atlantic City put his fist through an oven window because the cookies didn't come out right.

I’ve seen plenty of simple-carb-addicted people die of fatness. It’s a slow and painful death.

We let adults make their own choices.

1) I question how much choice an addict has.

2) If you were devising more efficient sugar delivery systems for those acquaintances as a means to take every last cent they had, knowing they'd be unable to resist, you're complicit in robbing and killing them.
