"Guilty pleasure" describes something a person enjoys, like a food, type of music, TV show, activity, etc. that is looked down on by society or not good for them, but they like it anyways. People usually try to hide their "guilty pleasures" from others. Ex: My "guilty pleasure" is watching cartoons every night while eating ice cream.
