My other roommate lives on Chinese food and soda, and thinks I am completely insane for going to the gym. They all love candy and other junk (just saw them eating some cupcakes this morning) and think all of my food is totally weird. Oh well!

Um, I love candy, too. I not only have a sweet tooth, but a whole SWEET JAW. And still I can pretty much limit my insane Cadbury Creme Egg indulgences to 10% of the time. But it's all about picking your poison. A coworker (25, strapping young man) brought in a thing of glazed pistachio muffins and was in LOVE with those things...whereas to me, they're not much of a temptation. On the other hand, at my favorite coffee shop, they have these peanut butter chocolate bars, and those are HEAVEN. If I'm going to indulge, it had better be worth it.
So really, your roommates just need to learn discretion! And if they're like every other college student I've known, that probably goes for all aspects of their lives...ahem...
Who eats cupcakes for breakfast? On a Monday?? And NOT their birthday?
