Which refined "non-clean" food do you miss most?

For me, it's gotta be pasta, which I do eat sometimes. But pasta, PASTA, I sing!
Sometimes, I make homemade pasta (linguine, fettucine, or ravioli), with high quality ingredients, and I try to convince myself that this is better than the bought versions.

COOKIES
I still eat them once in a great while but 1-2 will never feel like the right portion to me.6 -
Pastries. For sure. This KFC donut sandwich has been calling my name but I've stayed strong.4
-
Carbs and bread has been my weakness in the past.3

I miss two things: 1. Pizza from Mellow Mushroom and 2. Rolls from Texas Roadhouse. I miss the taste and momentary satisfaction, but I do not miss the way I used to feel before I started eating clean ... I guess its a fair trade4

I miss pasta, bread and soft cheese most of all no question about it. I love all of them and frankly have no issue with any of them nutritionally when eaten in moderation. I simply cant stand how negatively I react to them after eating even small amounts of these items. Not worth the aftermath for such short term pleasure. However I do miss them. Only really hits me when its around or being served/eaten by those around me. Otherwise I really don't crave them too much in general.
Being 1/3 Italian and born/raised and living in WI this is not always easy to bypass as one can imagine lol!2 -
Most of mine can be made into healthy alternatives (YAY!) Halvah, Fudge, Cookies, Cookie Dough, Frosting and hot chocolate with whipped cream
When I am around an Auntie Anne's the smell makes me sad- have not found an alternative yet!1 -
Good bread and sweet gooey desserts0

Ah, the weekend drinks. I try to choose red wine if I can but I know alcohol is not helping me lol1
-
Sugar loaded iced coffees and frappuccinos. I've taken to drinking mostly black coffee if I have it, and only add cream on the weekends.1
-
Coffee with flavored creamer. Although after coming off it and seeing the difference in my mood and energy, I know I can never go back to it again.2

I'm with a few of you, definitely loaded coffee drinks. I switched to black and just don't enjoy it like I used to. I've found not eating it at all helps my pain so no more coffee.1

right now I would say chips salty crunchy fatty potato chip..1
-
Cookies -- and we are coming into the holiday season where cookies abound. Plus there is something about making cookies and giving them away (and of course sampling them)1
-
dairy, pasta, regular rice, chips, cakes & pies; I miss them all evenly. I had to make a big change this year. Due to my weight loss roller-coaster.0

For me, the main thing I miss, Trolli Sour Gummy Worms and wine...:/sigh...but I am getting through it.1
