  1. Would you eat something that tastes good which is bad for you?

    It would depend on how good it tastes and how bad it was for you. One
    must always weigh benefit/risk before doing (eating) anything.

    For example if eating something tastes better than anything you have
    ever eaten but if eating it will result in certain death then the
    answer is obvious unless you want to kill yourself.

    If something is really delicious and there is some evidence that
    consuming it frequently may be bad for you then occasional eating may
    be considered OK. Again it all has to do with risk/benefit.

    See above. How bad does it taste?? How good is it for you and what
    evidence is there that it is good for you?

  4. Let's say something tastes really bad and is very bad for you, and the
    reverse.

    Is anyone aware of any good studies showing adverse neurological effects from
    Vit-A-Min C megadoses or is Anth pioneering new territory?
