    Pop tarts. I don't eat them very often, but I think I had 2 in the 39 years prior to my joining MFP. I've eaten several boxes since then.
    Pop Tarts have always been a goto for me. I'd have to say gelato.

    The new flavors this year have been pretty nice. Havent been able to try the orange soda, but the only really dissapointing one so far has been watermelon

    Roasted vegetables--especially beets and squash. Steamed fresh cauliflower. Forcing myself to find ways to eat/tolerate/maybe even *like* vegetables has been huge. I can almost eat avocados by the slice now. Kalona full-fat cottage cheese, out of this world good. I eat more shrimp now and am no longer scared of scallops. 100 new ways to make chicken in the oven.

    Eggs. Their versatility in cooking is second to none.

    Fresh green beans, asparagus, fresh peas (I always HATED peas, turns out canned & frozen was the problem, not actual peas!) and I always thought people were crazy for spreading avocado on toast instead of butter, but OMG it's actually amazing! Whole wheat bread & whole wheat rice.

    Baked beans, black beans, garbanzo beans!

    On the flip side, no matter how healthy some things may be, I can't bring myself to like them: kale, prunes, and cauliflower.

    I'm not joke in love with red Cabbage (this has only been in the last couple of months). Other than that full fat greek yogurt. I always liked it but now I can't live without it.

    Fruit! I rarely ever ate it in the past, now I have some kind of fruit most nights for a snack instead of the crap I used to eat. I can eat quite a bit of fruit for only a couple of hundred calories.

    I'm with ya, there. It's my go-to for drizzling over cooked vegetables or pasta with a little garlic powder.
