    I am here 100%. I am incredibly picky and I refuse to eat foods I don't want to just because I should. I do like some foods that are healthy and I eat them, but eating gross foods only because they are healthy and denying myself delicious treats is not how I want to live my life.

    Welcome! :) You might find that your tastes gradually change over time and you figure out a few "healthy" things you do like, but just eating less of the things you love is a great way to start!

    (I do eat things that I consider "healthy", but I eat plenty of chocolate and treats as well! :) )

    Finished the meringues and had more taffy. I am going to probably have something tomorrow, be it more hamentashen, jelly beans, Hershey kisses, or licorice allsorts. For now, I'm actually kind of proud of myself. There are more full-fat baked goods and candy in the house now than there have been since I started MFP and I'm actually able to have it around without binging. (Hubby is taking some stuff to work in his lunch, so it's not going to be here indefinitely.)

    My boyfriend just found Austin and English Cadbury Candy as well as four flavors of Tim Tams at our local Target! I was actually planning on buying them online and had then in my cart on Jet.com, but now I can have them today! I have always wanted to try Tim Tams and I asked him to buy some sort of white cookie Cadbury cookie candy bar too!

    I have never been happier than the day I found Tim Tams at my local Target. That stuff is beyond amazing. I may or may not have it in my house regularly now.

    So true! I find myself craving healthy foods like veggies quite often :)
    Although today I caved and had Taco Bell for the first time in ages.... so it still goes both ways for me I guess

    I just tried all 4 that they had and I actually didn't like the original or caramel much, but I loved the dark chocolate and dark mint flavors!

    I've only had the dark chocolate and dark mint so I can't speak for the other two but that classic dark though. I could easily eat a package myself. :lol:

    I eat a lot of unprocessed stuff but honestly it's mostly because I was diagnosed with a soy allergy and it's in everything processed and I have pre-diabetes after a gestational diabetes pregnancy so I make a lot of stuff from scratch.

    If it didn't spike my sugar I'd eat me some GMO gummy bears on the daily!

    These were jam, but they had chocolate drizzled on them. (And they were miniatures. So cute it was almost a shame to eat them. Almost.)

    I had no idea what those were, but after searching on google I am pretty sure that hamentashen are similar to kolaczkis.

    Had breakfast with my son at Village Inn yesterday and got to have French Toast, scrambled eggs, and applesauce. Not at all the calorie bomb I thought it would be and it was so satisfying!

    Totally love this thread... I don't avoid anything but meat (it rips my gut to shreds). I'm short on fat & carbs today, so I'll be getting ice cream later - not that Halo Top stuff everyone seems to love, but REAL ice cream (preferably with chocolate and/or peanut butter, unless I get Almond Dream cappuccino flavor... so good!)

    I just hit the Greek market and bought some halva, labne, and baklava...my ex was Turkish and I'm having some major cravings for Turkish treats :) Baked halva and baklava are in my top 10 list of favorite foods ever.

    It's funny, I never heard the word "clean" eating before mfp. I only modified my foods a little since mfp, I acturally started eating bread & snacks since I started! I love trying new snacks.
