What is the one food you can't even touch?

I had this problem too - I could weigh out a portion, but then I'd go back for another one... and end up eating at least half the tube if not more! I banned them from the house, and if my family wanted them they had to keep them hidden and not offer me any.
Recently we discovered that our supermarket is selling boxes of the single-serve 100 calorie packs, so we started buying those. I have to make sure it will fit into my calories but I can have one of those and not go looking for more afterwards, because the package is now empty. It must be a psychological effect, that there's no point looking for more because I 'know' they're all gone. I've tried to eat them slowly, though, and I just can't. The pack doesn't last more than a couple of minutes (if that) and isn't very filling, so some days it's just not worth the calories but sometimes it's just enough to tide me over until supper.
I haven't really had big problems with moderating anything else... I think I've finally broken chocolate's hold over me, and I don't usually have an issue with measuring out a serving of something and only eating that. I eat less bread now because the calorie hit isn't generally worth it to me, but I do love bread... there have been times when I've had fresh bread rolls waiting to be divided up for freezing, and the urge to eat one (or two, or half a dozen) has been so overwhelming it was almost painful! I found it hard to believe I was ready to cry just because I couldn't have bread. It was tough, but I did manage to resist!

Potato chips/Doritos.
Halloumi cheese. I'm not interested in one grilled cube....I want 7.

pizza and peanut butter. The pizza itself....I can eat 2 slices and then not eat for the rest of the day lol. But peanut butter. I was going to have some last night. I got out the measuring spoon, then looked at the calories for a tbsp. Almost 200! I could eat half a jar. With all my will, I put the PB and spoon away, and had a piece of cheddar cheese instead.1

Last week I was craving chocolate chip cookies...Which makes no sense because I have never even particularly liked them before. So I decided to make some, I love to bake but I had never made chocolate chip ones before. Very VERY bad idea. Never again. I'm still thinking about those damn cookies and they've been gone for days. I had to send the last of them with my husband to take to work because I had absolutely no control.0

Im allergic to lentils and chick peas....and i love hummus. Such a bummer0

Potato chips, specifically dill pickle chips (or regular with dill pickle dip). I've completely cut potato chips out of my life because when I get started it's too easy to not stop. I thought burritos might also be on the list, but I've somehow managed to keep myself in check with them.0

Whole bags of cookies/candies/chips. I can devour the whole thing in minutes lmao0
-
Pork. Sticky BBQ spare ribs, pulled pork, ham, bacon and pork crackle (it has to be fresh and hot) are my weaknesses.0
-
Another sucker here for poutine! And my beloved American snacks -flamin' hot cheetos!
I am both pissed off and thankful to the universe that Canada does not have them! As it is, I buy a couple bags whenever I'm in buffalo and try to not eat the whole bag in one sitting.....
Life is hard, guys!1 -

Bread. It's my trigger0

It's not my favorite treat but mine would be cookies, because they are so small and delicious. So it doesn't feel like I'm eating that much until a box is gone.0

Anything honestly. Every day feels like a struggle to me. I just want to shove all foods in my face constantly.0

That's me pretty much every time I bake stuff. Ugh.1 -
There were Rice Krispy bites at the theater last night. I managed to limit myself to three... mostly because there were about 48 total for a cast of 35.0
