Oh I want to buy a whole duck and roast it!! And I'd go to a farm and buy a half cow! (after buying a storage freezer!)

Macadamian nuts - so fricken expensive here and hard to find.

Beef jerky

Salmon

Grass fed butter

I'll second the coffee machine to make BPC. Using instant stuff right now and I'm sure it could taste better than it does

Meat, all kinds. Load the freezer with it! Ribs, ribeyes, pork chops, pork roast, ....... Need to take some out now for supper this evening!

Everything is expensive here, but you can actually get salmon on sale for pretty cheap ($2.50 a pound, but you have to buy it whole, which I do, otherwise it's about $7 a pound)... more than the money, it's the availability... so many things you just can't GET here. A lot of stuff I have to make myself (like Italian sausage)
so I guess my list is ($$$ = expensive, ??? = not available)

foie gras $$$
salmon roe $$$ (soooo expensive here).
Wish I could even FIND beef cheeks, ???
King crab $$$
T-bone or Porterhouse steak. not a common cut here. if you find it it is $$$ and ???
Cashew butter $$$
Pecans $$$
Oysters that I don't have to Shuck my self. ???
Soy wraps $$$
Gem wraps $$$
More than ONE flavor or pork rinds ???
Well aged cheddar $$$
Smoked Mozzarella ???
Low carb tortillas ???
Italian Sausage ???
Breakfast Sausage ???
Ground Turkey ?? (find it once or twice a year)
Beef Spareribs ???

My fantasies actually involve coffee. I'd love to be able to afford Dave Asprey's Bulletproof Coffee products to see if there is a difference in performance like he claims there is. I'm under so much pressure and have so many things to keep track of every minute of every day that my cognitive performance has suffered in the past couple years (although I still run mental circles around most of my colleagues, LOL), and I'd really love to achieve peak performance again. Honestly I feel my cheap Folgers (or whatever brand I happen to have that week), coconut oil, and Kerrygold have led to improved clarity and increased energy, but what if the real thing truly is substantially better for those outcomes? Plus I'm just getting tired of cheap coffee.

I'm pondering buying some, just to test it out, once my most recently acquired tin of coffee runs out. I'll try to remember to report back.

I really need to start fishing...there's a river 5 minutes away from me with salmon! I'd really love to have a billion king crab legs, lobster, some salmon...all drenched in butter and a whole cow! And a whole elk for my freezer...some moose too. My lawdy I love meat! Hahah

Maybe as your volume of coffee consumption is decreasing, you can increase the quality? Maybe not just the BPC stuff, but I know my fiance likes it when I buy even the cheapest beans to brew his coffee over something like folgers...

That's what I was thinking. I was down to one cup (okay, one large travel mug) per day, but today I made two travel mugs because I had to get up extra early and drive the kids to my FIL's before work (and will have to drive all the way back over there to pick them up before heading home after work). I didn't want to risk getting sleepy on the road with my precious cargo. But I've been for about a week now brewing 4 cups instead of the 8 I used to drink before work (not to mention the 1-3 additional mugs I drank at the office). It makes one large BPC (in my large Tervis Tumbler that say NY GIANTS on the side--had to throw that NY pride in there) which has been more than sufficient for me in recent days. If I use less, I can certainly afford to buy better quality. And I'd also like to get an inexpensive grinder so I can buy whole bean. That's all coming up as soon as hubby starts bringing in enough money to help with bills other than rent.
