    think about the raw egg in the mix and how it could have grown up to be a chicken and now its not, instead you are eating chicken fetus...raw.

    ^^ This is what I always do when I have to cook something that I have a hard time resisting!

    I have no good advice. I eat the batter, raw chicken fetus and all.

    I have to immediately run water in the bowl after I pour the batter in the pan to keep myself from doing it!!

    Immediately put dish detergent in the bowl once you have filled the cupcakes.

    Ruining food works wonders. For example, say you're out to eat and really want something decadent. Order it, eat a few bites then dump a ton of salt or SweetNLow packets on it so it becomes inedible. I'll do that if I order fries, count out ten ten coat the rest in artificial sweetner. Portion control that requires a little less self-restraint.

    you could brush your teeth right before and wash the bowl as soon as the cupcakes are poured... the toothpaste taste will keep you from eating it and then once the mix is all wet in the sink you should be good :)

    Same here. The chewing gum suggestion is good.

    I rinse the bowl immedietly, or else I would devour all the "leftovers" that I "couldn"t" scrape out!! lol

    Make vegan cupcake batter. Eat batter. Be happy and full of delicious cupcake batter.

    Whatever you do, don't use a mix. This year, treat yourself like you are an extraordinarily amazing person whose opinion matters above all things. If you are going to eat a cupcake, let it be transcendent and worth the effort and calories. Don't just grab a box, 2 or 3 eggs, oil, water and dump it all together. Make something from scratch and truly celebrate yourself. When you realize that food like this actually nourishes your goals---to love yourself enough to spend the time doing something amazing JUST FOR YOU---the game starts changing completely.

    I don't know...I don't have a hard time staying away from raw batter. Even the cupcake afterwards aren't a huge temptation. Now cookies on the other hand, I have a whole freshly baked container on the counter calling my name.

    I don't bake as much anymore because I don't have the self control. Chances of salmonella are slim, and you aren't eating raw chicken fetus' so that doesn't work for me.

    My best bet is cleaning everything immediately, sill the batter bowl full of water, take the mixers and pour soap on them etc.

    I think this is a great idea. This or some mint gum, bleh sounds ucky to try and eat cupcake mix after that!

    I agree with Richard. Simply make the choice NOT to eat it. It's your decision. Unfortunately, there's no magic formula or product other than pure willpower. You can do it.

    Good luck! I would have a taste - but a small one!

    The gum might do the trick for. It's worth trying

    Actually its closer to chicken menstruation then a fetus since its not fertilized.

    And no that doesn't work for me either. I honestly just use a good spatula and get out 99% of the batter so its not an issue. I also agree with the person that recommended making them from scratch rather then a mix, I personally enjoy the whole process. I rarely bake so I'd rather it be an extra special thing when I do.
