Actually, I just read the book "You On A Diet" by those two doctors and according to them one of the reasons is because sugary foods help give our brains an extra kick start. And of course there's always the easy answer, because they just taste so damn good! LOL

Our ansestors lived in an era were food was scarce and our body relied on fat for storing extra energy to keep us alive until we hunt and gather more food. Also our ancestors had to work out more frequently and needed more sugars to give them energy to live. However when agriculture was invented in the fertile cressent our bodies were able to get abundance of food for energy and did not need to hunt and gather. Therefore the cravings for unhealthy food that kept our ancestors alive we have not fully evolved out of. One interesting fact is that in scientific american genologist found out that people who had ancestors that lived in the fertile cresent had higher metablisms as their body is more adapted to getting food in abundance from cultivation. But this is only a theory that scientist believe but have not fully verified.

we eat them because they are sweet and taste good. Usually we dont eat what's good for us because it don't taste like a chocolate cake. For example that's why their is a lot of obesity.

Its a natural human tendency...like most of us do what we are asked not to do.......we put an end to it only after facing the results......
