    Soda, Alcohol more than just special occasions, fast food, Fried foods (like chicken), and a whole carton of icecream.
    These are all yummy delicious things, but to loose weight, I wouldn't suggest them :P

    The high fructose corn syrup in the maple syrup.

    What??? It's not maple syrup if there is HFCS in it! It's cheap processed crap.

    Oh man, the second I tell myself I can never have something again, it's all I want to stuff in my face. It's like when I'm on a plane and the seat belt sign comes on, I automatically need to pee.

    I try to use "want" language instead of "can't" language. Whenever someone says "oh you can't eat that can you?" I say "I can eat whatever I'd like, I just don't want to eat that".

    So I'm with the people pointing out the logical things that will kill you. And people, probably should avoid people. Other than that, never say never.

    I generally stay away from meat and egg based dishes at potlucks. I don't trust people to keep it at the right temperature or wash their hands when prepping, and I don't want to get sick!

    1) Cyanide
    2) Dirt
    3) Live animals
    4) Drywall
    5) Nitroglycerine

    I busted up laughing when I read this one. Oh, the memories. I grew up doing drywall with my dad and I "ate" more than I care to try to recall. I still remember, painfully clearly, that it tastes absolutely terrible!

    1: Gluten.
    2: Gluten-free products.
    3: Variations of the above.
    4: White chocolate.
    5: Sugar in coffee.

    Numbers 1-3 ... Explain!
    Numbers 4 and 5 ... I feel so sad for you right now.

    I think it is not good to ban anything from your list unless you don't like it. Ice cream and soda is not healthy for your body but it is healthy for your soul so if you don't overdo it, it is great to have every once in a while.

    Wouldn't cut bananas from my diet either. Magnesium and Vitamins in that momma.

    I don't purposely avoid anything for any reason other than the fact that the calories are so high in some things that it uses too much of my daily calories. If I don't drink soda, then I can have more food. If I don't eat a small amount of french fries, I can have a large amount of chicken. High calorie foods and drinks just become less appealing because they 'cost' too much.

    Okay, I am done and will go away now. Thank you everyone for the laughs, this is the greatest thread, totally made my day!
    I seriously love how many people suggest not eating people, bahaha! I feel safer now :p
    1. I concur with not eating anything that will kill you. Bad idea.
    2. Seriously ... Never eat drywall!!!!(even when ingested accidentally) It is some nasty stuff.
    3. Way expired/rotten food. It may have been good once - it ain't now!
    4. Live animals. Once dead, any animal is good eatin!
    5. Sewer water. Yes, I feel the need to mention because I have seen it done. This is just nasty. Please don't or you make me hurl!
