If it didn't have calories, right now I would eat...

    @RennieHJ - Tiramisu is wonderful. I've been 'ruined' though...at a huge work 'potluck' someone made one and it was the most angelic one I've ever had. None now can live up to it😥
    ps....I think that 'phyllo pastry dessert' is Galaktoboureko (Greek dessert - basically a creamy custard/phyllo dessert.)

    Oh those companies that mess with a good thing...why 'fix' something that's SO not broken??

    You mean like the engineers on MFP?

    A friend told me that when his mom was alive, her pie crusts weren't nearly as tasty when they took trans fat out of Crisco. Is that why they changed Butterfinger? I haven't had one in years. Used to be a favorite as far as candies go. Snickers probably too. I was impressed when a sea kayaking buddy brought Snickers instead of something like a Clif bar. Cheaper. Tastier. Surprisingly good mix of macros, and the go-juice to make the paddle move the boat across the water.

    overly greasy batter fried items are gross. TONS of better calorie dense options, like a damn good cheesecake.

    Not for me. I'd rather have the fried okra, onion rings, or tempura than an overly sweet cheesecake.


    AGREED! And if something is fried properly, it is not overly greasy. A tempura battered or panko crusted fried anything is WAY better than cheesecake.

    These are DIFFERENT (MUCH less battered) than the previous ones you posted, now you are in the right direction!

    You don’t know what a GOOD cheesecake tastes like! Well crafted cheesecake is not “overly sweet,” maybe the ones you buy in fast food restaurants.

    I didn't post the original pictures, and you don't my preferences. I have had very good cheesecake. I used to like sweeter things. I stand by my statement that I'll take the fish and chips over cheesecake. I also prefer bagels to doughnuts.

    @mtaratoot - I'm SOOO with you on that bagel to doughnuts preference!

    @PAPYRUS3 - I have for years told people not to call me a sweet person; I'm a savory person.

    I'd rather have pasta carbonara than coffee cake. I'd rather have corn chips than oreos. I'd rather have a burrito than a Danish.

    My friend made some "cinnamon rolls" for another friend's birthday. They were really good. Almost no sugar. Whole wheat flour. Rolled up in individual rolls. More like spiced bread, but very dense. I ate a second one. I made something similar when I was playing with sourdough last year, and I learned how to make one-strand "braids" to make tasty rolls. Mmmmm..... bread.

    Those cinnamon rolls sound like my kind of thing too! I too like a 'toothy' thing. I love buckwheat/not sweet pancake or waffle and I don't like any syrup on them at all.
