    Gummies in any shape, and beef jerky. If a bag of either is within my reach it is history. In order to not eat them, I just can't buy them.

    Tie between breakfast cereal and ice cream. I can't keep either in the house because I'll eat them with/for every meal. :-/

    Bread and bakery products generally.
    Indian food, and the creamier the sauce the more I want. What I wouldn't give to have a Prawn Puri, followed by a Chicken Chasni, with a peshwari naan ..............

    There isn't? Since when? :huh:

    ETA: I'm assuming you're talking about addictions to individual food stuffs. In my experience, craving something in particular is usually because my body is deficient of a nutrient that it provides, not necessarily because of an addiction. But food addiction (aka compulsive overeating aka binge eating) is a real thing.

    Nonsense, nobody makes the decision to be horribly obese without food addiction problems. Like it's the "drug of choice" instead of crack or meth, and with those you can at least quit cold turkey. Not to mention that there are physiological reactions to certain foods. Like chocolate stimulates the same areas of the brain that sex does, for example.

    There are foods that once I start eating, I have to eat until they're finished. I can have cookies, ice cream, chocolate (I still have some from the Christmas before last kicking around), in the house and not feel the need to eat them.

    But my homemade garlic bread (with lots of butter and lots of garlic) I must consume until its gone. And I love beer. I can either drink none or at least 5, nothing in between. I never have a beer with dinner. I'm just not programmed that way

    Cheese I have problems with too, especially when paired with a fine loaf of (real) French bread. I still eat cheese, albeit in smaller quantities, and I generally stick to cheddar now. Cuz I just can't control myself when I have a brick of Danish Havarti or a round of brie "going bad" in the fridge.

    I also like candy (especially chewy fruity candies), and eat a bit every night, but only a couple of pieces.

    ETA: to attempt to be less judgmental about "off the cuff" comments that irk the hell out of me...

    Only a person who has never been addicted to food would say that. Nobody makes the decision to be horribly obese without food addiction problems.

    I doubt many people have been inspired by a nicotine fit to give one, either. But cigarettes are still considered addicting. And a starving person might give you more than that for food.

    By the way, are we talking about cake? And if so, are we talking real frosting, or just the cheap grocery store weaksauce? Because when considering doing certain carnal favors for food, one must take the quality of the food into account.

    I haven't. Why have you?

    I have given my boyfriend a ** so he'll take me out for dinner.

    Have I answered your question? If it's TMI, then perhaps you ought to think before you type.

    Peanut butter, especially with chocolate. It takes every ounce of willpower I've got to resist it.

    Poor people with food addictions. Tell that to people in third world countries.

    Everyone has a food addiction to some extent, quit eating, you'll die.

    But are those who are starving worth considering when I want to stuff my face with absolutely unneeded calories? You bet it is.

    Red meat, fried foods, salt. I don't have much of a sweet tooth, so I'm never tempted by dessert. But put some steak and fries in front of me, and I'm a happy gal.

    My slightly healthier food addiction is hot sauce. I crave the stuff.
