There may have been times when you declared to your friends, “I think I’m addicted to food.” You may have been simply joking, or you may have real fears about your dependence on food. Food addiction is real. It includes the same classic symptoms as other addictions like alcoholism and drug addiction. And yet we do tend to joke about it and keep on eating.
