I once saw a television interview with Julia Child where she admitted to a fondness for Cheetos Cheese Puffs. I'm sure it raised some eyebrows from the food elite who probably felt it sacrilegious that a noted French Cookbook Author would gorge on commercial cheese puffs. Personally, I don't think one's personal indulgences frame who they are as a cook or Chef.

Have you heard of other Chefs who have a guilty pleasure for junk food? Would Thomas Keller even eat a Dorito?

I'm obviously not at the level being discussed here but cooking's what I do for a living so I'll confess (and suffer the abuse that it brings my way) that I've been caught more than once with a microwaved frozen burrito in my hand.

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.

Julia had been quoted in several interviews professing a love of MacDonald's Quarter Pounders.
