I woke up this morning to the smell of bacon and my knees went weak, it also triggered thoughts of a bacon sausage and egg sandwich with lots of ketchup, this made me sad because I no ketchup in the house :/

What food makes you feel like gollum chasing the ring?

    I absolutely love Atkins Chicken Margarita but despite it being high in protein & calories, it doesn't fill me; at all. After I eat it, I feel like I didn't eat anything & am then more hungry because of the feeling, that I waited to eat; even though I ate & it's also expensive, for something that has; no satiety. So I make my own version, of it instead. Of course it doesn't taste as good but it's good enough, for me & thus I make it approximately, 2 times; a month.

    I had such an issue with Ben & Jerry's in my youth (18-21 or so), and I ate so much of it that I still can't really enjoy ice cream now!! I am 41!! It makes me nauseous now to think of it!!

    I'm 21 myself and I only discovered Ben & Jerry's a few months ago, and I've been addicted to it since! Same issue, I think.

    OMG, yes. This was my breakfast every morning at later-in-life uni (I walked by the shops to my college at Oxford the times I didn't take a dorm room). I try to keep them for special occasions now because the smell of them plus strong coffee bring me right back to that time and that's its own fun :)

    I went years, and years without a drop of ice cream!! And I still feel a little sick when I eat it! LOL

    Mom's napoleon cake, mom's chocolate mousse cake, mom's Russian tea cakes, basically anything mom bakes. That woman has otherworldly baking skills. I have been to all kinds of specialized and fancy restaurants and bakeries, and some of them only come close but not quite. I don't know what she does to get the flavors just right, strong when it needs to be and subtle when it needs to be. I can't wait till Christmas for all the heavenly goodness that I am going to enjoy.

    You are most welcome! Be warned you won't be able to stop, but it will be worth every ounce gained.

    I worked at a Dunkin Donuts when I was a teenager and have been off donuts ever since. Alas, I was never able to get to that point with Ben & Jerry's.

    I made a slow cooker Latin pork pot roast the other week that was out of this world.

    Pork shoulder is the best buy at my supermarket. I make one in the slow cooker every week, and use half of it for stew, and the other half for carnitas.

    The food that makes me weak in the knees is fresh baked bread, with butter. I haven't had it in a long time.
