Spurred from the other thread about food you can't control yourself around....
Most common things were, fries, chips, pizza, cake, etc.....
Someone pointed out that the thread was full of unhealthy things... no one said brussell sprouts or something..... which made me think... Is there a healthy food you will binge on and cant control?
For me it's totally raw or cooked Broccoli and grape tomatoes. I could eat those all day. I can literally eat like 3 or 4 heads of broccoli and pints of grape tomatoes. With nothing I don't even need anything to dip them in.
So is there a healthy food you can binge on and spend all your damn calories on in one sitting.

GROCE.0 -
Cherries! At least the stems and pits slow me down a bit0
-
Navel oranges and kiwis!0

Blueberries, avocado, spinach, strawberries when they are in season and I buy them at the farm stand0

Clementines--I used to take 5 or 6 of them for lunch everyday0

Garlic lovers hummus.
I actually can't buy it unless I have a "snack attack" night purposely planned, because I have ZERO self control.0 -
Avocado. Nuts. Pineapple.
Most fruit I can eat a LOT of.
But, I don't think (for me anyway) the feeling is the same as wanting to binge on say chocolate. It's more that if they are in front of me I'll keep picking. It I put it away in the fridge I wouldn't find myself tempted to go get it back out again.0 -
Bananas, apple and tuna. Not all together, not necessarily in that order, either.0
-
frozen greek yogurt.........guess that could be on both lists???0
-
Definitely nuts for me.0
-
shrimp!0
-
Almonds, almonds, almonds0
-
salsa. I could probably eat it by the spoonful by itself. I've not tried that yet, but now that I think about it... brb.
*gets spoon and runs to fridge*0 -
Watermelon0

Mostly fruits: when they are in season:
blackberries
peaches
cherry tomatoes
bananas
strawberries
roasted jalapenos
kale chips
I agree on shrimp---grilled shrimp is amazing. I don't usually spurge on it though, it's expensive and its easy to get full from shrimp and fish. I can eat a whole plate of sauteed mushrooms as well.0 -
GORP
Good Old Peanuts and Raisins0 -
Trail mix
Nuts in general, but especially peanuts or pistachios
Cherries or grapes0 -
I dont know about cant control myself,but could/would love to eat unlimited nuts, dried apricots, raisins, Also any kind of trail mix combo.0
-
Nuts. Especially cashews. Can't buy them in bulk, have to buy a small package so I won't eat 2000 calories worth in one day.0
-
Blueberries, avocado, spinach, strawberries, fresh salsa, string cheese, nuts, kiwi...0
-
hmmm... peanut butter, almond butter, sweet potatoes, and fresh mushrooms.0
-
I cannot think of a single one!
ETA: Well, unless you consider peanut butter healthy. And anything beyond 2TBSP is really no longer healthy. It's just fattening.0 -
Blackberries and strawberries.0
-
mixed nuts, I could sit and eat a whole canister full. It adds up fast!0
-
granola!! I probably shouldn't buy it because I will quite literally eat the whole bag!!! And craisins! So good. I will sit and just eat handfuls of it.0
-
Homemade roasted chickpeas. I can tear through those!0
-
Blackberries and strawberries.
Same here! I'll add blueberries to the mix because I love them. Avocados too.0 -
avocado, and nuts! Mostly nuts.0
