Food in general is not addicting. Or to put it differently, overeating is not addictive. There is some evidence that suggests sugar is addicting, and I can see why honestly. Sugar, specifically unbound fructose, not glucose, acts like a toxin when it enters the body.  But even then, it isn't nearly as addicting as some hard drugs.  Also importantly, while the goal with other addictive substances is to completely eliminate their intake, with food the goal is just to eat less. Hell, you can even eat sugary crap and not be a fatass. Probably not the healthiest, but whatever. Moderation, not elimination, only should make it easier.
