Every morning as I am waiting for my coffee to brew, I roll one hand-rolled cigarette comprised of [these](https://www.smokingpipes.com/tobacco/by-maker/mac-baren/moreinfo.cfm?product_id=185) [two](https://www.smokingpipes.com/pipe-tobacco/cornell-diehl/Crowley's-Best/product_id/134978/bulk/) tobacco blends (which are originally meant for smoking in a pipe), diced finely with a knife and rolled in Rizla Ultra Fine rice paper. Then I smoke it while drinking my coffee. That is my ONLY vice. I do not smoke tobacco at any other point in the day. I do not drink coffee at any other point in the day. I do not touch alcohol. I do not consider cannabis or psychedelics to be a vice, but rather a useful tool/sensory-enhancer, and I use in moderation. I think everyone’s gotta have one vice, otherwise they’ve probably got a screw loose somewhere. ---

Turns out, [it’s just aioli](https://www.eater.com/2017/6/27/15879670/guy-fieri-aioli-donkey-sauce). I’m in the process of trying to give up my one vice, which is ice cream. We had a good run, but if I don’t get a handle on my weight now, I’ll have mobility issues in ten years or so. It’s just not that good. Interested in any suggestions for alternate vices that won’t help destroy a middle-aged body. ---

A decently healthy replacement is banana ice cream. Put 2-3 bananas in a blender, along with some ice, milk, and greek yogurt. Blend and eat. Not the same as real ice cream, but it will satisfy the craving. ---

My vice is chocolate. I would eat it til it kills me if I didn’t keep a tight control on it. The problem is the sugar in it. I am a type1 diabetic so my diet is carefully controlled. I have work my chocolate in where I can. It’s not easy, but I manage. I think if you have one vice you’re probably ok. ---

My only vice is this one I have down in the basement. I bolted it to a table in our laundry room so I can use it to hold stuff steady when I do handyman things. …what? ---

Learn how to re-define them TODAY! Send a SASE and $10.00 to…” My main vice (seriously) is laziness, but I prefer to think of it as “enhancing my efficiency, while reducing my carbon footprint.” ---

Only one vice seems so limiting. Which one do you choose? Everything I like is either illegal, immoral or fattening, so I’ve got a dozen or so vices. Sugar, caffeine, cigarettes, and cannabis are my daily vices, while cocaine, crack, LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, ecstasy, speed, nitrous oxide and benzos are more occasional vices as the mood strikes me. ---
