    Whole grain deli rye bread - any kind of rye bread actually. My number one must have, I LOVE it!

    Venison - Only get to have it though if we're lucky enough to harvest a deer in season. When we do, I use ground venison in place of ground beef for casserole recipes & burgers, and roasts cooked in a crockpot w/onion soup mix then shredded for hot 'deer' sandwiches. Plus, in my opinion wood fire grilled marinated venison tenderloins, backstraps or chops are the absolute BEST steak in the universe! *drool* I actually prefer it over a beef NY strip, T-bone or Porterhouse. :)

    ... GAH! Now I'm hungry for venison, but we're out. Hurry up November! hehe

    Pretty much everything else I MUST have is quite common.

    Duck.

    My favorite bird to eat. Other people though...either go "Ewww!" or have never had it.

    Why is that apex predators such as ourselves only eat 3-4 animals? Beef, pork, chicken, sometimes turkey. Well and various fish but that's practically a vegetable, as Ron Swanson says.

    We need to eat a wider variety of lesser creatures.

    Duck is expensive to buy, and many people don't have the means, know-how or desire to hunt. But why do we need to eat more variety?

    For variety! Variety is good. What if we only at half a dozen kinds of vegetables? Boring.

    The reason its expensive is because its low volume. Places in asia its a cheap as chicken.

    I'm picky. I don't think I love anything that other people don't. I think I probably eat a lot more junk than other people here though. ;-)

    Though, I would say potstickers/dumplings would be something I don't see on many diaries but they are so low calorie and so good.

    I love potstickers but where can you get them where theyre not high in calories?

    Brussels sprouts! Sliced or shredded, tossed in a little coconut oil, salt & pepper, a sprinkle of parmesan, and roasted at 450 degrees for 15 minutes. I could eat them all day, every day. Maybe I should. :tongue:

    I think I just wet myself.

    I don't really think the ones you listed are that high in calories. They could be bigger/smaller too.

    The ones I buy (from the junk store) are 190 calories for five pieces. They are pork and vegetable. $1 for a bag. My husband and I split the bag (two servings). The brand is Tasty Select. IMO, they are decently sized enough to be a part of a meal, so we could have that and some other side (veggies in garlic sauce) for a meal or that could be a side itself. We boil them and then use soy sauce. (Though I see plenty of recipes online to make other low calorie meals.)

    I actually thought they tasted better than the Trader Joe's brand, which was 200 calories for seven potstickers. (They were chicken.)

    Hummus, as well as fage 0% greek yogurt.......I love it! It has helped me to like things like celery, carrots, and cucumbers. I also keep boars head maple glazed chicken breast on hand. It is protein with a hint of sweetness to satisfy cravings and not to mention it is acceptable by the american heart association.

    Durian, mangosteen, cherimoya, starfruit and all the other expensive, exotic fruits my wallet can't handle. :( If I ever get the chance to travel to southeast asia, I'm gonna stuff myself silly until I explode!!!

    Edit: Good idea. I'm gonna put that on my life bucket list. Travel to fruit paradise.

    The horse is obviously not a must have food tho' because, well, I only had it out of country. But I love hummus and baba ganoush, almost every vegetable and fruit I come across. I LOVE THE INTERNATIONAL MARKETS!! Bulgogi, okonomiyaki, REAL ramen... soooo many things, omg I'm hungry now :(

    Butternut squash! I love to roast it and then top with tons of sauteed greens, mushrooms, onions and crushed red pepper. Perfect blend of savory, spicy and sweet.
