    Caramel corn and peanut M&M's. Really any chocolate covered nut.

    Costco sells a Chicago Mix (cheese and caramel corn) that is basically crack in a bag!

    For some reason that combo always sounds ick to me, although it seems to be popular at the moment. (I really hate powdered cheese anyway, so am not the target customer.)

    I always wonder why it's called "Chicago mix."

    I don't like cheddar popcorn but the salty and sweet combo of the two is highly addictive (for me!). I've also always wondered where the name came from.

    I like the description of "food with no brakes." Good one!

    That's actually a term coined by Melissa Hartwig, co-founder of the Whole30. I love it, too!

    The combo of peanut butter and chocolate... and just peanut butter anything in general... heck, peanuts, too. Just don't let me have anything with peanuts because I won't stop going back for more.

    Cadburys amaze balls brownie bites. Luckily my local supermarket has stopped stocking them.

    Katz gluten free cinnamon donuts. It took me so long to find a yummy pastry type treat that I could eat with my allergies and when I finally found one I had no self control with it. They cost around $8 a box for 6 of them and are 220 calories a piece. I have never been able to buy a box and keep it in the house more than 2 days without eating all of them so I have had to stop buying them all together.

    The caramelly-maple popcorn pieces are candy coated and the bacon ones aren't. Just grab a handful and the combo is like a party in your mouth. B)

    Cheez-its
    Cheetos puffs
    white cheddar popcorn
    Goldfish
    trail mix (the walnuts love me...LOL)
    thin golden Oreos
    red favs Starburst
    wildberry Skittles
    Brookside dark chocolate covered pomegranates
    Kettle sea salt and vinegar chips

    These are ALL the death of my good eating habits. Many of them I still keep in the house :(

    I completely banned chocolate and cookies during my first month to break my binge habit. It somehow worked and I can actually control myself around my old trigger foods now. The only thing I'm abstaining from is alcohol because my doctor upped a medication and now I get fall over drunk and a terrible hangover from one beer. Totally not worth it.

    Trader Joe's has a bacon popcorn (it's vegetarian). It has caramel corn. I could just mix the two.

    Or not. For my own self-preservation.

    I don't really abstain, per se. I just don't regularly keep them around. I still have them occasionally.

    Cheesy crackers. Cookies. Cake. And I don't even like cake.

    Chardonnay--I do fine with any other variety of wine. And Jif whipped peanut butter, I can (and have) eat the entire tub in a day.

    I just love salty chips. The flavor isn't important, it's the salt and the crunch and the fried flavor.
    I could eat entire bags.

    I also love peanuts but seem to have got a handle on that now, I can portion them out and stop, unlike with the puffy snacks. Not sure what makes the difference (if I worked that out I'd be several steps further along the path)
