    Anything Cinnamon based.

    Cinnamon oatmeal, Cinnamon rolls, Cinnamon cookies, Cinnamon cake - I literally want to devour it!

    About that Ben and Jerry's ice cream....I read something years and years ago about "visualizing" what we're eating in terms of something else that's not appetizing. One of the things it said was to picture eating that pint of premium ice cream as the same thing as drinking a juice glass of cooking oil. :o It was the fat that was equal. Now obviously that depends on the kind of ice cream, and the size of the "juice glass", etc. But the idea of drinking any glass of cooking oil is pretty sickening and I always think of that when I'm eating the premium ice cream. lol

    But that said... ice cream is not my "weak in the knees" food. I can buy a pint and eat a small bowl of it and then leave the rest of the pint for weeks.

    However....let's talk about salty crunchy potato chips. omg. <3

    Freshly baked, still warm bread. I could eat a whole loaf in one go.

    Vegetables drizzled with a little bit of olive oil with fish and a few shavings of Parmesan (especially from this one local Italian place).

    Strawberries/raspberries/blueberries sweetened with Splenda until a little sugary crust forms (especially if the fruits are on the harder side). There was this one place I went to in DC that had this amazing fruit dessert -I think it was mixed berries drizzled in honey, fresh mint, and garnished with a dollop of cream. <3

    More recently, good wine and well-pulled espresso with some super dark chocolate

    ...I just realized I am turning into a food snob and am starting to crave vegetables. A few years ago, I would have said "chocolate lava cake", but those things give me the worst headaches now (typically because they send my blood sugar into the 250s even with careful carb counting).

    peanut butter cups.

    my soon to be ex gave me a stocking for xmas filled with the mini ones.

    i *think* his intentions were good LOL but I took a handful (maybe 2) and gave the rest to the neighbors kid (my kids dont need it either, and they got their own candy for xmas LOL)


    it is literally the one food i cant have in the house because i have ZERO self control with them. lolol

    Amen. Pints of ice cream are known to turn into vaguely identifiable icy objects in my freezer.

    Potato chips? Blink and you'll miss them.

    There are some in the house right now, but I'm ignoring them along with a lot of holiday junk...pecan pie, crackers, cookies, chocolate...lalalala...I don't see it.

    Peanut butter, Nutella, and chocolate and tempeh bacon but I think I'm over the tempeh bacon. Also bacon on everything.
