What food or drink do you consume an inordinate amount of?

[GrumpyTwatFace]

For me, its spinach. I eat it raw with every meal. I can easily get through 1kg a week by myself 😮

For DP, its tinned fish. He has it every day for lunch. He treats himself to fancy ones which is currently costing us about £150 a month 😮

What about you?

I eat two eggs every day but that's not an inordinate amount I wouldn't have thought.

I suppose it's protein... eggs, chicken, fish.steak.

Plus loads of vegetables.

Hot Chocolate. I like good quality brands so spend waaaay too much on it.

Tell me
more!

I could easily eat 4 bars a day..family size

sugar is in blooming everything..even crackers..how did you avoid it?

Marks and Spencer’s pickled onions in balsamic vinegar. I can go through jars and jars of them mmm 😋

Rice. I eat it for pretty much every dinner and sometimes lunch too.

Vodka. Chocolate. Ginger snaps.

Lemon squash, lots every day
Burton's salt and vinegar fish and chips snacks
Chicken breast
Shortbread

@Monchylavender
Findus crispy pancakes are in Iceland

Along with other blast from the past delicacies - artic roll, vienetta, lorne sausage, spam fritters.

Chocolate. Dark, dark chocolate. (I used to eat all chocolate but trained myself to eat dark chocolate in order to be healthier but frankly I eat so much of the stuff am not sure that worked).
Giant Wotsits. Not the small ones, no, no. The Giant Ones. The orange yumminess of their crunchy air.
Things I would eat a lot more of if I had more money: raspberries. All the raspberries. Pistachios. Passion fruit. Pomegranate. Parmesan cheese (I can't buy it cos I eat it straight out of the fridge in chunks). Hungry now ...

Celery!

Coffee and Greek yoghurt. I can’t get enough of Greek yoghurt.

I drink a lot of tea, all varieties and lots of cheese, all variations.

Tea.

Tea is life!

Hahaha are you me? I've gone through stages of being addicted to ALLLL of those except maybe halloumi.

I remember my DH's look of horror when I put a big dollop of sauerkraut next to my lasagne 🤣

I can't do without coffee either, even though with perimenopause it's starting to upset my guts.
I eat too many crisps. Am trying to get on to rice/ancient grain crackers instead. They're nice, but it's not the same.
The tinned-fish thing has also made me look at my lunch habit; I buy lunch out every weekday and, even if I eat modestly (Pret's cheapest sandwich or whatever), that's over £100 a month. I work at home, too, so there's no excuse really, other than that I can't be arsed thinking of things to make, and I find it stressful to think about stopping to prep food when I'm busy.

Beer most days.

Grapes
Pepsi Max Cherry
Irn Bru

Coffee - I have a cup of decaf tea to start my day, but then it's coffee all day long.

Oh I forgot lemon curd. Mixed with Greek yoghurt and crushed meringue

Jacobs crackers with butter
Blackcurrant squash
Salt and vinegar snack a jacks
Rice Krispies - I could eat them all day long, happily
Edited to add - I am very surprised by all the love greek yoghurt is getting! I need to give it a try again

@Doggielovecharlotte Well I had a head start because I can't eat gluten and I'm quite familiar with a low carb, zero grain diet from recovering from an inflammatory bowel disease (I'm not a doctor and know I can't be recommending this).

However, after recovering I found sugar didn't trigger my illness and I went waaay overboard, probably to compensate for all the sweet foods containing gluten that I can't have.

I felt so controlled by the cravings that I knew something had to be done. I've cut out all sugar, and most carbs except vegetables. It's not for forever but I think I've re-set something inside because random stuff like plain soda water and unsweetened nut milk now tastes slightly sweet to me.

I'll probably bring back everything except gluten over time, but hopefully I've broken some kind of craving cycle.

Tinned tuna can be high in mercury. Tinned sardines and mackerel are fine.
I eat half a tin of mackerel or sardines every day for breakfast normally.

Bread (homemade so not as bad in my head...), butter, dark chocolate, bananas and cucumbers. Could be worse I suppose. 1-2 cukes a day, 3-4 bananas, bread and butter with every meal and dark choc in bread and butter...

I have a fast metabolism while BFing so enjoying it while I can!

So many squash lovers here!
Mr Fitzpatricks Blackcurrant and Liquorice cordial
Belvoir Ginger cordial
I have to buy the expensive full sugar ones because everything else has been ruined with sweeteners. Hate the taste. I sometimes give in and buy a bottle of my beloved Vimto.
I'm old (and northern) and remember when my mum used to take me to a temperance bar after school. Barrels of cordials and you could have them hot, cold/still, or fizzy. I loved a fizzy Blood Tonic - nettle and raspberry cordial.

Lots of people. I just haven't taken the time to do it. Usually the empties sell for $1.25 plus per jar. 12 for $15, etc. There are beautiful repurposed. ones on Etsy that are much higher.

I donated the first 50 to my local library for craft sessions. Someone showed me a nightlight they made during one class. I have an art teacher friend that I'm checking with. There are 26 schools in our county, so I may just donate them all.
