What food is like crack to you?

I recently discovered Halo ice cream and was delighted by how delicious it is whilst still being pretty low calorie. The problem is that it’s so delicious I can’t eat a normal portion size. I thought I’d give moderation another go tonight but nope, I’ve just eaten nearly a whole tub of Gooey Chocolate Brownie. Totally defeats the object. The peanut butter one is the worst (best).

What food is like crack to you??

Cheese
Chocolate
Bread
Pizza
Pasta

My ideal days food would be
Breakast: toast and marmalade
Dinner: Cheesy pasta
Tea: pizza

And lots of Chocolate.

If I could eat like that every day without the massive weight gain I would!

Crusty white bread. Closely followed by all carbs.

CARBS!!! Mmmmmm... 😋🤪

Especially shortbread. I can't have it in the house.

Pearbear · 20/08/2021 04:53

M&S mini chocolate orange rolls or Waitrose’s chocolate mini rolls that come in a tub, had to stop buying them when I’d even have them for breakfast. Absolutely no control when I know they’re around.

@fiveminustwocats are you in NZ? I remember hokey pokey ice cream when we lived there for a short while. Do you know Boysenberry ice cream? I wish we had it in UK.

joystir59 · 20/08/2021 06:41

Good bread fresh or toasted with butter
Chocolate
Ice-cream
Seabrook's ready salted crinkle cut crisps

I don't have any of these in the house except when I've decided to treat myself.

Home made fudge where it’s slightly granulated not smooth commercial fudge.

cricketmum84 · 20/08/2021 06:57

Cheese. All the cheese.

NotMyselfWithoutCoffee · 20/08/2021 07:04

Pizza

There's a takeaway/restaurant near me that does authentic Italian style stone baked pizza.
My dh and I ordered two last week, we've been to Italy and it was pretty good I'd compare it to Italian style street pizza. I started off saying I'd have 4 slices but it was so good we each ate a whole pizza each.
We kind of looked at eachother at the end and both said that was one of the best pizzas we'd ever had.
I did feel guilty on the scales the next day though..

fiveminustwocats · 20/08/2021 07:09
