Foods That Cause AddictionAddictive Foods

There are certain foods that are so difficult to resist that we often refer to them as “addictive”. However, addictive is, in many cases, more than just a figure of speech. Some foods actually trigger physical biochemical responses in the brain similar to those produced by narcotics. 

Foods that cause addition typically contain significant amounts of sugar, salt and fat or even a combination of them, which is why it's highly unlikely to feel addicted to things like carrots or celery.
