Looking for friends who don't eat "clean" and healthy
Replies

It's not very active anymore - but our ice cream lovers group on MFP used to host challenges a couple of times a year, where people would post pictures or a log of the yummy foods they were eating related to the season, along with keeping track of weight and other relevant stats - to demonstrate that it's possible to eat delicious fall favorites and still keep up with weight loss goals. Or all the delicious foods between Thanksgiving and New Year's without gaining weight. It was a lot of fun seeing people's homemade treats, people would share recipes, drool over yummy regional things like cider doughnuts - and realize that it's possible to eat delicious food and have this still be a part of our social norm without compromising weight loss or fitness goals.
This thread reminds me of that. Sadly, many of our veteran posters and founding members aren't around anymore, but I know there are still a few that pop in to share a fun new find.

Right, I'm ruining your fun, lol. I'm still trying to understand the fun that fit people derive from posting pics of desserts and gushing about candy on a fitness message board.
Oh no, people have foods they enjoy. Hold the presses.
Yeah, just take a look around next time you're out, there are a lot of people who really, really, enjoy food...4 -

This isn't a thread you will want to be a part of, so please don't ruin it for those who do. We've enough train wrecks around here now.
Agreed! I love this thread! Please don't argue it into MFP purgatory

Pickerel dipped in flour and Mrs Dash, pan fried in butter with fries done in an air fryer.

I dream of a world where people can post about delicious food, and people who don't like it can tell at them for posting something without their approval or understanding.
Oh.
Wait...3 -

Are those frozen fries or do you start with potatoes? What's the texture like? I ADORE fries and have been thinking about an air fryer for a while but would like some opinions.0 -

Fresh. Just the potatoes, soaked for a 1/2 hour then dried off. Little bit of oil and cook them a bit longer then suggested.
There is a thread around here I'll try to find and link. It almost made me decide not to get one as I usually just do them in the oven, but I do like them from the air fryer better. They are not deep fried but they do come out crispier than from the oven.1 -
Checking out our group thread on it, @Emily3907 got an air fryer and wasn't too impressed, perhaps she might chime in with her opinion here? (I don't want to quote replies from private groups without permission.)
@OhMsDiva really likes hers, so that would be another opinion to consider! 1 -
Are we back to posting food porn? Because this is dessert today (not my pic but close enough).

Anyone still looking for friends? I’m new to this journey but I for sure will not be a completely “clean” eater.0

It would be hard to make me not be happy with a potato, so I might have to look into getting one. Thanks!0 -
I eat a cup of chocolate pudding. And not that fat free sugar free nonsense, either. I also use 1% milk.

I prefer candy corn. The pumpkins are just a bit too much!

I enjoy one small bag of candy corn a season. Just like I have one bottle of egg nog every Christmas. I enjoy it and I look forward to it, but one is enough. Then I am good for another year.
I am baking a cake today. Strawberry sheet cake with cream cheese icing. Because I can.1
