A guilty pleasure is something, such as a film, a television program, a piece of music, or an activity that one enjoys despite understanding that it is not generally held in high regard or is seen as unusual or weird. For example, a person may secretly like a film but will admit that particular film is poorly made and/or generally seen as "not good".
It can also be used to refer to one's taste for foods that are considered to be advisable to avoid, especially for health reasons.[1] [2] For example, coffee, alcoholic beverages, smoking and eating a little piece of chocolate after dinner are considered by many to be guilty pleasures.[3]
