Being careful about what you eat isn't the same as being at war with oneself over food, though. I think that's where some of the discomfort is coming from. There's a big difference between controlling what you eat to maximize your athletic performance, and the associations of guilt and morality from eating "bad" food. Not to say that the two never overlap, of course they do, but having experienced both first-hand at different times, they are not the same. Crosby imo sounds like a guy who's pretty at peace with his sweet tooth even while acknowledging it's not something he wants to do all the time.
