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).

Food:

Baked Salmon Drizzled with honey
Haagen Dazs Strawberries & Cream ice cream NOT the vile strawberry cheesecake one
M&S Pineapple, Coconut & Lime lollies - they are divine and taste like virgin pina colada's - only 90 cals too!

Drink:
Fentiman's Cherry Cola - it's my one very expensive habit and probably costs me as much as crack would!

Peanuts
Salt and vinegar hula hoops

Chocolate and salted caramel Gu puddings
Have you tried Gu salted caramel chocolate spread @paintedpanda!

There are no words to describe it. I fear they will have to prize a jar of it out of my cold dead hands (which will be attached to my by then super morbidly obese body).

Camembert
Smooth peanut butter
Those two I cannot buy and eat responsibly. Obviously there are other favourites but they are just the usual level of snack addiction.
I bought some peanut butter to take to Scotland to lure the pine martins (allegedly) but the poor wee buggers didn’t get so much as a lick Grin

I can’t believe we’re two pages in and not one mention of this.

I’ve had to cold turkey on all forms - the bastard spread tipped me over the edge!!

Cadbury's fabulous fingers. Can't open a box without immediately eating them all Blush

Catchthepigeons · 19/08/2021 22:33

This was not a good thread to read whilst on a diet 😅

Lurpak
Crisps
Garlic mayo
Cheesy dip from the odeon. I'm so glad that it's not for sale in supermarkets or I would eat my body weight in it

Probably been mentioned already but Cadbury chocolate fingers. I open the box intending to have one or two, and half an hour later I'm staring at an empty box wondering how that happened.

I never buy them for myself now. I give them to my enemies instead.

Oh no, I accidentally started an inspo thread.

I don’t even know what tiger bread is

Don't think Ocado do Tiger Bread. You might be ok with Artisan Sourdough though.

Tahini. The proper Lebanese stuff. I could pour it down my throat.
Any non-palm oil Nutella-type spread (ditto)
Crystallised ginger
Fresh mango with lime
