    I am pretty much obsessed with all Taco Bell (and I'm apparently the only person on the planet who doesn't get diarrhea from it). If I could eat it every day, I definitely would.

    What are some fast food items or "junk" foods that you wish were healthier?

    I CANNOT believe you just said that...I am completely obsessed with Taco Bell!! I'd eat it everyday if I could, and actually did in high school for lunch haha. I also do not get diarrhea from it, haha. I saw this thread in the forum and entered with the intention of say Taco Bell, and then I saw your post. Sooo glad someone gets me

    I miss Taco Bell so much. It's been 4 years next month :disappointed:

    I wish chinese food was as healthy as broccoli! Oh man I love that stuff. I could just pull up a chair at a buffet.

    So sadly I have had a dinner for one only once in the last 18 months - it is not something I can moderate. On the day I had it for dinner, I had eaten nothing else (not by choice). I still probably went over calorie budget that day....

    Grilled cheese sandwiches or mac & cheese. Just too many carbs in both.
    Two of my favorites, but it's not carbs for me, it's sodium.

    I've been craving Taco Bell so much today why did I come on here! Haha.
    Probably currently my Zillionaire cheesecakes from GU! So good but about 375 calorie wise and a hell of a lot of sugar!

    Snicker bars and kinder Buenos xDDD

    I still have them occasionally though- but recently I've started buying dark chocolate with a percentage of 72% or higher. Instead of eating a bar ot two bars in a row, I'm happy with a single 10g square.

    Do I even have a favorite? XD
    Let's see... I guess cake, especially vanilla or marble cake made at a bakery. I've yet to try a homemade piece of cake that I've favored over a cake from a store bakery like Publix.

    Those freakin' baked chicken nuggets I make from skinless boneless chicken breast with just spicy breadcrumbs on top, which end up taking up a whole day's calorie allowance because I can't ...portion control when it comes to them :'(

    Would probably go broke within a month too, if that was a thing :)

    ETA: not wishing it was "healthier", just less calories for a huge serving haha :blush:

    I wont lie, I've wished more than once that chocolate contained as many carbs as, say, cauliflower.
