    Potato chips. Anything chippy. Ohgod. I want some now just thinking about it. :'(

    Right? Some people have a thing for chocolate and sweets, but me? If there's something salted and crunchy and chip-shaped, I'm screwed. It's worse if there's some kind of dip.

    Pretty much everything my body doesn´t need. Chips, chocolate, candy, cookies, burgers, pizza, fries...

    Peanut butter. Longest I've ever had a jar last is 3 days- the struggle is real.

    Any chips, especially potato chips or Cheetos. Also cake, Oreos, thin mint cookies, ice cream... I just have no self control. I can't buy any of these things to bring home. If I want any of these, I must buy 1 single-serve portion and eat that.

    I can't buy cured meats. I will devour salami and bacon. I can't help it. I quit buying it, buy every once in a while my wife will get it and it is game over. I eat it absent minded. Before I know it I ate a quarter pound of it. Sigh

    Me too! Chips are my biggest weakness I cannot have any in the house.

    No specific food. Just a mix of high sugar/fat that I feel I haven't earned (if I just worked out it's not an issue).

    it used to be coffee flavored m&ms or popcorn. I would eat a couple of big bags of those m&ms a couple of times a week. Popcorn 3 or more times daily. Most things (labeled) junk happen to be a trigger for me. I used to drink a couple of cans of mountain dew or any soda daily but gave it up for the most part.

    Kashi Cinnamon Harvest Cereal. Oh man. I love that stuff.

    Popcorn (downed a whole bag for lunch last week. Was on a medium run day, so I figure the sodium worked :D)

    Maple Almond Butter. I could and would eat half the jar in one sitting. Thankfully it is kind of pricey so I don't buy a lot. I used to do a scoop in my oatmeal, then I found myself grabbing more and more spoonfuls of it. I'm not really watching weight but nutrients, but it could easily get out of hand if I was hungry enough, lol.

    I used to eat maple peanut butter by the spoonfuls. That stuff is seriously addicting.
