What is your downfall food? (something really unhealthy that you will eat if you have it in the house?

[shanvan]

Besides chocolate, I mean?  I think mine might be potato chips.  :ohmy:

[Luckymama]

Doritos.

 

Love.

[Paige]

Mine is definitely potato chips. I need a stuffing my face smiley!

[MelAR05]

Macaroni n cheese

[Lisa R.]

Oreos.

[TammyinTN]

Homemade cookies.... :drool5:

[Gisel_le]

ice cream and potato chips

 

 

[bettyandbob]

I have to pick one?!?! 

 

Ice cream. dh makes it once a week. Not a big amount either. So, we can't over eat it. (we were given an electric ice cream maker a couple of years ago and I almost return it, but we decided from then on we'd only eat home made to cut down on our consumption).

 

certain candy, like those mint truffle kisses only available Thanksgiving through Christmas. 

 

I like home made cake with home made frosting. Sometimes I'm in the mood for making cakes. If I am, I have to give away cake to neighbors. Sometimes they are dieting, but have weak wilpower too so they accept the cake, but are unhappy I offered. 

 

 

[Liz CA]

Dark chocolate and chocolate covered raisins.

At least it's usually 70% or darker; it used to be milk chocolate...

For a while we had none in the house and I would not think about it, then dh started shopping and bought it again. ALL his fault.

[Slartibartfast]

Chips

 

Homemade cookies.

 

I am allergic to dairy so that helps. Store bought desserts usually have dairy,  I would have to make it myself to eat it.

[Eagle]

BESIDES chocolate?? But it IS chocolate!!!

[lavender's green]

Salt and vinegar potato chips.  Oh, my mouth waters just thinking of them.

 

Therefore, we only get them occasionally.

[MiMi 4under3]

Deep fried Oreos.

 

 

We live in a tourist town, and the carnival comes around way too many times during the summer!

[scrapbookbuzz]

Peanut M&Ms

[Arcadia]

Besides chocolate would be any seafood, especially oysters and lobsters.

[Pawz4me]

Chex snack mix.

[HRAAB]

Potato chips.  Chocolate can sit for months; a bag of chips will be gone in a day.  I don't buy them.

[Upward Journey]

Chocolate ( in any form except white :ack2:) .  I just don't keep any form of it in the house ever!  Everything else I seem to be able to resist.

[Gentlemommy]

Captain crunch cereal. It's horrific for you, but man is it good!!!

[Mergath]

Cinnamon buns.  And pastries.

 

And cheesecake.

 

And ice cream.

 

Oh dear, now I'm just making myself hungry.

[PrincessMommy]

Cheese-It's and Nutella  -  not together though.

 

[Critterfixer]

Sugar cubes.

Yes, I know it is weird.

[Night Elf]

Cake. Every time.

[Lara in Colo]

The list...... it is so long......................

 

Keebler Danish Wedding cookies

 

Apple chips (esp the caramel flavor)

 

rice krispies treats  (homemade- of course)

 

Last week I made two batches of my orange/cranberry scones--- they are in the freezer calling me--- all. day. long

 

oreos--- is an "eat by" date even relevant?

 

 

 

 

[JenneinCA]

Jelly beans

[plumshadow]

Brownies!

[Cinder]

Donuts, shortbread cookies, scones.

 

I can do without chocolate but if any of these treats is in my house . . . well, that's why I don't have any of these treats in my house.

[kiana]

popcorn

[Mrs Mungo]

Pretty much any kind of chips.

[teachermom2834]

chips- particularly kettle cooked or some kind of spicy flavor.  Also M & Ms.

 

Strange thing is I can ignore a bag of either for weeks but as soon as someone opens it I lose all control.  Once the bag is opened it is just and handful here and a handful there until the bag is gone. Usually does not take long.

[shanvan]

Potato chips.  Chocolate can sit for months; a bag of chips will be gone in a day.  I don't buy them.

We have some in the house *umm* at least for now.  :blushing:

[Belacqua]

Pistachios.  The cost used to be a mitigating factor...darn you, Trader Joe's and your freakishly affordable prices!

 

Oh, and wasabi peas. I am weak in the presence of wasabi peas.

[Carrie12345]

Potato chips, but only if there's onion dip.
And brownies.  I refuse to live a life in which brownies could ever be ignored.

[shanvan]

 

oreos--- is an "eat by" date even relevant?

True story.... Once upon a time long long ago, I brought home oreos.  I'm sure Dd must have convinced me, and they must have been on sale too (my only defense).  Alas, all that remained at the end of the day were about 8 oreos.  I looked at them, and I really wanted to eat them, but I had eaten way more than I burned off on the treadmill.  What to do?  I decided it was snack time and MADE Dc eat the remaining oreos (like I had to twist their arms).  At least I had not eaten the remaining 8 oreos.  I was so glad the house was finally oreo free and I would be able to reform and start drinking green juice again and settle down to being a good girl.  Dh did the grocery shopping the next day.  Guess what he brought home?  :glare:

[Critterfixer]

Funny story about Oreos. I cannot stand the things. Couldn't eat them even before I was GF.

In vet school, in my fourth year I was on clinics prior to Christmas, and I couldn't get home until Christmas Eve. I was out of cash, out of food, etc. All I had to eat were stale Oreo cookies that somebody wanted to get rid of so they left them in the break room... none of them had been eaten, they were so bad...

Anyway, all I ate for about a week were stale Oreo cookies. 

I suspect I'd starve to death before I'd eat another Oreo!

[J-rap]

Those chocolate cookies with marshmallows inside, and a cookie crumb bottom...

[joannqn]

Doughnuts....and my church serves doughnuts every Sunday.  Even if I eat breakfast before I go, I can't not eat them.  

[Julie Smith]

Note food but CocaCola. (If I just say coke you might picture some white powder)

 

and then chips. 

I am not to found of chocolate, or deserts.

Well, since Dh brought them home, I have not had many.  They truly aren't my favorite, but if they are here, I will eat them.  I don't bring home cheeze-its anymore either since I looked at the fat content.  Dc try to ask me at times, but I make them read the label and tell them 'no' every time.  And yet...there are potato chips in the cabinet, and I am guilty of bringing them home!  What was I thinking?  I wonder why my Dc haven't gotten wise and compared the potato chip label to the cheese it label?

[Rockhopper]

Cheez-Its. They are my food crack.

 

But I just discovered the Cookie Spread at Trader Joe's. On rice-flour matzoh. Oh my. It might overtake Cheez-Its on my addictive food list.

[TeachingTwins]

Vic's Cheese Popcorn (I can't buy it in the south, so can only get it when I visit family in the Midwest). It's a once a year treat!

[warneral]

potato chips and dip

cookies

 

[Critterfixer]

Here's another one of my guilty downfall foods, since we are doing confession and we just got done with Easter.

Peeps. I cannot bring them home. They never make it to the Easter baskets. I suspect it's the sugar crunchiness I like.

[Beth78]

Hot and Spicy Cheese Its and guacamole.

[trulycrabby]

Key Lime Pie frozen yogurt, and plain cheesecake. :o I gave up sugar in January, so they are both sounding pretty good right now. :o

[Scrub Jay]

Ice cream and homemade, soft chocolate chip cookies.

[shanvan]

I think I may be sorry I ever started this thread!  I don't think I've ever had so many cravings all at the same time. 

[Just Kate]

Cheez-Its! I stopped buying junk food, except for those nasty little cheese squares for my kids for a treat. Wanna know what I learned? I can become addicted to any junk food if it's I. My house. I finally had to stop buying them. I couldn't control myself. Seriously.

[NicksMama-Zack's Mama Too]

pumpkin pie, cheesecake and pumpkin cheesecake.

 

I make 1/2 inch slices and tell myself that I'm just having a little......then I make another 1/2 slice....and another...

My mother sends me a 5-pound box at Christmas. I eat it all by myself by mid-February (Yes, I hide it in the back of the freezer. It's MINE, I tell you! Mine!). Then, I swear it off forever, but by the time November rolls around, I'm just craving it fiercely.
