    I think "treats" is mostly used in reference to industrially-processed foodstuffs that provide little nutritional value or are otherwise seen as somehow sinful or indulgent, but sometimes extends to hobbies that are viewed as intellectually unstimulating and consume resources without producing something new (e.g. something like jetskiis or video games might be seen as treats, but a table saw or a crossword puzzle be)

    so basically if you have protestantism-brain level desire to shame people for consuming it i guess

      Raised Catholic, so to me, EVERYTHING is "treats" subconsciously. :gigachad:

        those brainworms run deep, i'm a full 2 generations removed from catholocism and that shit still persisted as a family inheritance :brainworms:

        an alternate definition that's a bit more charitable: "treat" might mean "something the hogs treat as essential or a right that is unarguably not essential"

        Honestly all you material reality "leftist" PMC Karens need to realize perceiving matter via your senses is a tasty treat. Sorry you can't have solidarity with us Dark Ocean that is the Void Leftists who's souls drift in the eternal bliss of nothingness.
