Thought I would start a random lighthearted food thread Grin.

If you could only eat sweet foods or savoury foods for the rest of your life what would you choose and if you could only eat one savoury meal and one sweet dessert (can be fruit) what would you choose?

Mine would be: Sweet for the rest of my life.
Main meal: Spaghetti bolognese followed by creme brulee.

No contest, savoury.

Anything seafood, preferably crevettes (no mussels) with a crisp, well dressed salad.

Lemon tart or zabaglione please.

Savoury - big picky meal of crusty bread, proper butter, cheeses, meats, pate, pickled onions, crisps, crackers, pretzels etc

Dessert - my choc chip apple crumble with vanilla custard

Savoury. If I could eat only one thing forever, I'd have beef lasagna with salad, followed by golden syrup sponge with custard and be the size of a house within weeks.

Savoury - a life without cheese is no life at all. I can't decide on my favourite main meal. Too many to choose from my mind has gone blank Confused.

Savoury. There's so much more variety than sweet. IE roast dinner, pizza, curry, sushi etc.

Savoury for sure.

Maybe very rare steak with asparagus, followed by apple crumble and cream.

Savoury. I could learn to live without sugar in my foods but could NEVER learn to like unsalted.

Oh my God - my stomach's rumbling! This all sounds divine.

Mine would be: Savoury (with many tears for abandoning sweet things forever. Sad)

Fave meal: my hubby's Sheekey Fish Pie (swoon)
Pud: Tarte Tatin (not made by me as would be inedible Grin)

Savoury. I honestly cannot remember that last time I ate pudding. Make it for my family all the time, but don't care for sweets at all.

Now, if only I could feel the same way about cheese and crisps, that would be great.

Savory. Much as I'd miss the sweet I'd probably miss the savoury more as I'd feel ill with only sweet.

Sweet 

Main: Spanish tapas
Dessert: Belgian waffle with salted caramel sauce and ice cream
