It's not often a star admits to actually eating sweets and even rarer that she does it in public. "I eat whatever I want," Kim Kardashian, 28, tells Life & Style in an exclusive interview. "Life is too short not to."

Among her favorite indulgences: Oreos and candy. "I always have a stash of Hot Tamales or Skittles in my purse," she reveals. "I just have the biggest sweet tooth ever."

Still, the curvaceous star doesn't give in to every craving. "I used to eat all my snacks and desserts first — before my salad or my dinner — because I was so excited to get to them," Kim admits. "But now I try to fill up on healthier foods so that when it's time for something sweet, I don't end up stuffing my face. But I always have room for dessert!"
