    CHEESE!
    I am completely addicted to cheese. Can't beat a good, mature English cheddar.

    I know it's bad for me, but I cannot and will not give it up!

    Cheese isn't bad for you. It's got fat, protein, calcium, and various micronutrients. I easily fit cheese into my food every day.

    The only "problem" with cheese is that it is somewhat high in calories (especially the good stuff) which makes it easy to overeat if you don't watch your portion sizes.

    ETA: To clarify a little, cheese is not bad for you unless you are lactose intolerant or have other medical issues that make it something you need to avoid.

    I was thinking much the same thing re: cheese.

    I love cheese. Especially sharp and/or smoked cheddar, and mozzarella!

    I also really like chocolate, caramel, and most types of frosting or icing. I eat chocolate at least weekly but only have frosting occasionally...not even monthly.

    Condiments can be a weakness for me...southwest chipotle sauce or dressing, Sriracha mixed with mayo & chili sauce...mustards...it would be nice to take to plain sandwiches & salads like I've gone to dry toast (for example) but alas, it is not to be.

    Most of the foods I love are fairly healthy (fruit, seafood/fish, spinach, nuts, eggs, tortillas) so it's more a matter of choosing carefully and watching portions than avoiding them completely.

    hazelnut or vanilla soy lattes. Sometimes i make them at home with my keurig but its still a crap ton of sugar.
    chocolate for sure. Once a month i have a gooey chocolate brownie with peanut butter frosting from a local vegan bakery no guilt allowed.
    Feta egg white wraps from starbucks.
    mixed chinese veggies and bean curd veggie soup from my fave chinese place. It would seem healthy but god knows what they sauce those veggies with. possibly pure fat lol.
  • Two things...chocolate and sushi ooooh, or maybe chocolate sushi...is there such a thing? Anyhoo, I have to have sushi at least once a week and it's not always the healthy sushi either. :(

    ... or maybe chocolate sushi...

    I always wondered how I could do a fast for any length of time. Now I know. Just think of chocolate sushi and all desire to eat goes out the window.

    Aack! Shiver.
