lol Don't feel foolish. I often eat (and drink sweat tea with it - mmm sugar) when I want a drink and the urge passes very quickly. Maybe it's comforting something inside myself with food but it sure beats getting drunk!
Good job - you did the right thing by posting before choosing to pick up that bottle.

If it's not yours to throw out, then it's not yours to drink!

That's another good thing about not drinking. No alcohol numbing your taste buds and your stomach and digestive tract starts to repair and you have a nice healthy appetite when you're sober!
Just had me a country fried chicken dinner myself, it's okay I'll run off the extra calories later, where usually I would had just skipped the meal so I could get drunk faster and sit and drink poison and procrastinate on even getting up to take a leak.
