Honey roasted nuts of any kind
candied pecans are unbelievably good but soo high in calories
Have you tried honey-roasted cashews? Almost unbelievably good
Red burnt bumpy peanuts.
Those stupid nerds clusters. Why are they so good?!?!
Most candies, I can eat just a few and I’m good. A little candy bag will last me a while. My husband got my nerds clusters the other day and I ate the whole bag of them in 1 day. I was ashamed. Lol
Don’t be, you’re among friends. 😄
Seriously though. I'm not really a candy person, and if I do have it it's basically always some form of chocolate, but these are the exception. I will straight fuck up a whole bag of clusters and crave them the next day. Sooooo good
I usually feel sick from eating too many gummy things at a time, but the mixed berry nerds clusters don't cause it, and they're so addicting.
Pizza. It's a slice of heaven and a wedge of regret.
I’ve told my husband he has to pay for all future pizza purchases because I cannot have self control.
One slice can be between 400-700 calories for ONE SLICE.
Sure it depends on the kind of pizza and the pizza place, but you can’t tell me I can only have one slice when the entire pie is left on the table alone getting cold and has to be eaten by someone?
I went to Merkin Vineyards in Cottonwood, Arizona (Maynard James Keenan from the band tool has vineyard and restaurant) and their pizza was so amazing that I have been trying to copy it at home. I have gotten pretty close to mimicking it. Its high quality and on the healthier side for pizza. I didnt realize that you can have pizza that is lower calorie and actually tastes good. I use my bread maker to make the dough and make small pizzas where it is ok to just destroy every last bite. I keep playing around with ingredients to find that perfect mix of yummy and healthy(ish).
I just always find the name of his winery absolutely hilarious. It's where I first learned what a merkin is.
Cheap grocery store cookies. High quality or homemade cookies, I’ll eat two or three and be happy and satisfied. Shit-tier mass produced grocery store cookies? I don’t stop until they’re gone. I don’t even think they’re good!
"Maybe this one will taste better. Hmm...stale, greasy, weird flavor. Let's try another..."
I love those awful puffy white cookies that look barely done. That weird dry frosting on top...
Muddy Buddies (the chex mix with powdered sugar, peanut butter, and chocolate)
Good ole puppy chow!
I made it for my how to speach in 8th grade and practiced so much I still can't eat it 30 years later.
One time I ate muddy buddies so hard I got lockjaw
Any "baked cheese snack" i.e. goldfish, cheese-itz, and every knock-off brand you can think of. There's just something about it, like when the cheddar in your grilled cheese melts out onto the pan and gets crispy
I’m sorry for what I’m about to do.. melt the cheese straight on the pan and cook until desired crispiness. Can add jalapeños..
Cheese frico. You can use them as a classy garnish or you can eat a dozen of them drunk in your underwear at 2am.
I actually typed something similar to that first (before the grilled cheese mention) but thought no one would get what I'm sayin'
A friend told me when I was making tacos to put the cheese in the pan before the tortilla to heat up. Straight game changer
Good friends of ours host a Pride After Dark party every year and they have a local taco truck that comes and sets up a couple of flat top grills and sells tacos. They offer both a version where they put the cheese down before the tortilla like you say and another where they just make the shell out of pure cheese.
Honestly, I'm glad I have to fly across the country to get to where that truck is, because I would be stalking them and gaining about 5 pounds a week if I was closer
Extra toasty cheezits do not last long in my house
I take down a family size Cheez-It box in no time.
I just "justified" opening a party-size bag of Crunchy Cheetos by sharing it with the dog. I then had to close it "in case he ate too many."
Utz cheese balls. I can eat half of container easily if I don't control myself
Cheez-It Grooves
Mango, the only thing that stops me is waiting for them to ripen 😭😭
After many a time without the time or patience for ripening one, I've grown to like the taste of a slightly tart and firm mango
In my country (Costa Rica) we call that "mango cele".
You grab the green/slightly green/almost yellow mango. Cut it into batons, and try eating it with salt. If you wanna take it a step further, try it with salt, lemon, and tajín/another chili powder. Enjoy
Similarly, dried mango. Not the sugary kind, just straight up dried mango. I'll eat pounds before I know it. The perfect chewy, sweet snack.
If I make homemade nachos I can literally eat it no matter how long till it’s gone. Same with tacos and enchiladas
Yeah this is me. I will gorge myself near unto death on a plate of nachos. It can literally just be chips with some melted cheese on it, nothing fancy, and I still go to town on it.
Nutella straight from the jar with a spoon. I don't even pretend to put it on toast anymore. I've hidden jars from myself in the back of cabinets, but somehow I always remember exactly where they are at 2 AM when I'm having a rough night.
I love how the jar says “only eight ingredients!” Like they aren’t the eight worst ingredients you can put in your body.
NUTS are HEALTHY OK
Edit: added ok
Mine is Nutella with pretzels
My husband went through a Nutella and breadstick phase He could make a breadstick last for at least 5 scoops of Nutella.
The breadstick is merely a vehicle for Nutella.
My problem is that 'out of sight, out of mind' does not work on me when it is nutella
I mix it with peanut butter. Get some peanut butter on the spoon, then some Nutella. Way better.
Someone gave me a goddamned tub of nutella for christmas, and that was the mode for part of january. Stoned, in my jammies, standing in the kitchen having PB-nutella spoons. Ugh.
At the Asian markets they sell these shrimp chips I fuck up a bag so gd hard. I had to limit myself to 2 bags because I know how bad I could go if unchecked
Oh yeah, those are dangerous.
I can recommend a snack from the Asian store that is much better to eat more slowly in servings that are less likely to create a feeling of self-disgust like those shrimp chips can do.
It's a blend of peanuts, dried chili pieces and Sichuan peppercorns. Tumble the bag around to get them more evenly distributed and then pour them into a small bowl or ramekin. Use a teaspoon and try to balance the three ingredients then chew it up and you will be incentivized to wait and enjoy the flavors and sensations instead of just shoving the next one in your mouth.
Without getting too detailed, it's an arc of flavors and sensations involving the rich, roasted peanut, the heat of the peppers and the tingling buzz of the peppercorns that you'll want to ride out and enjoy. It's then worth waiting a bit for your mouth to "reset" before you enjoy the next one.
I'll stretch a half-filled ramekin out over 45 minutes or more and they are sooo good.
This is world class hehe 😜 peanuts and shrimp
There's an on-call allergist doctor who is reading this and tensing up right now.
Haha I was literally thinking Calbee shrimp chips and here it is
Bruh they have those at my Costco in A HUGE BAG 😭😭😭🦐🦐🦐🤤🤤🤤
So you are trying to kill me. Great thanks bud.
Honey BBQ frito twists. I tried to get a bag and say I’d go easy and ate it in like 20 minutes 😂😭
Bruh I get it. one of the finest snacks known to man.
Kettle potato chips
Salt and Vinegar ones until my tongue falls off.
Big firm cherries
I will gorge myself until I feel terrible
Me with watermelon. And I never learn
Honestly I felt terrible because I had mentioned how good they were then ate the entire bag and my parents were like "gee thanks for telling us how good they were"
Omg this one. If I get a perfect one, I want to keep the party going and have another. If I get a less than perfect one, I'm like "well I can't end on a sour note, better try another". It's dangerous.
It's especially weird because I HATE cherry flavored anything. Hate it, it all tastes like cough syrup to me. But you best believe I will DESTROY a bag of fresh cherries.
Oh man when driving back from Alaska in 1977 me and my buddy went to the Seattle market and purchased $1.00 worth of cherries that were 11 cents a pound. We could not stop eating them they were so sweet. By the time we hit Portland those 9+ lbs of cherries were about gone. We crapped them out every 1/2 hr. on the way to San Francisco
Also happened to my buddy and I, we've been backpacking for a month in Glacier National Park with no resupply other than what we carried. Needless to say by the time we got out and back to our car the first thing we spotted was a cherry stand on the side of the road. We bought a ridiculous amount of cherries and ate them all while driving back east. Hit a rest stop, do your business eat more cherries, repeat all the way back to the Midwest.
Anything sweet. Oh, and anything salty. Anything fried. And of course, anything combining any of those three, and especially all of those together. The faster it can kill me, the more I want to binge it. I may have a problem.
Monte Cristo sandwich: ham and cheese for salty, fried in egg batter, dusted with powdered sugar. Sounds awful but heaven if done right.
Those peanut-butter filled pretzels. I can’t buy them.
Pistachios or cashews.
Pistachios are so addictive
I have to refuse to buy the unshelled ones so that I have a shred of restraint by having to open them
Yes and you start eating them faster and faster like a crackhead because you don’t want to have a millisecond of that pistachio flavour leave your mouth.
Oh salted cashews are bad news for my diet lol
Salted peanuts nearly killed me once. I ate a whole bag (like I usually do, or did, till this unfortunate incident), 500g, in one sitting.
I thought I was dying the entire night. Don't wanna get into nasty details, but lost probably half my weight during that horrendous night. Never again.
Hear me out.
Have you ever tried frozen cashews?
I make my own trail mix and keep it in the freezer in small baggies. Omg. I pick an the cashews out first and eat them while still frozen.
My husband bought me dill pickle flavored cashews and I nearly ate them all in 5 minutes flat. Cashews in general are a weakness, but those in particular are irresistible.
Same. Any kind of nuts really, but especially these two. I will eat them until my stomach aches. Passing a nut filled poo feels like passing pea gravel.
Smartfood popcorn
I’m this way with Skinny Pop. If I have a big bag, I’ll eat the whole thing in one go. Have to get the smaller bags.
Same here. If there’s a bag of white cheddar Smartfood popcorn in the house, it will be devoured in one sitting by me and/or my boyfriend lol
Mac and cheese. Pizza. These are two foods that I will keep eating until they're non left. I am incapable of leftovers.
What about a mac n cheese pizza?
chips and queso/guac. I will literally make myself sick eating it cause it's so good
Cheetos
Not proud of it, but that's the answer. Munchos second place.
chips. i will eat the entire bag every time
Fruit. I once ate a whole flat of strawberries without realizing how much I’ve eaten. Fresh fruit is so damn good
Yep, yep. Our baby girl is due in September, and I've somehow devoured a very very improbably large amount of strawberries from our neighbor's elevated strawberry beds. We already named our girl, but my husband started referring to her as Jagoda ("strawberry") since she's about 50% strawberry now.
That’s so cute. My mom said she only ate fruits when she was pregnant with me and that’s why I’m so obsessed with them 🤣
When your daughter hits a year old, your berry budget is going to explode. Young toddlers love them and it's easy to rely on them to deliver fiber.
Trader Joe's sells dark chocolate peanut butter cups. By the checkout stands they sell small packs of 6 or 8? Cups.
I freeze them then eat the whole pack.
In the aisle with the sweets they sell a big tub of them. I can't buy the tub. I'll eat them til I feel sick or the tub is gone.
Have you tried the mini pb cups? Omg,I eat them by the handful and can't stop😳
They are SO good in place of chocolate chips in cookie recipes!
I actually prefer Trader Joes peanut butter cups to Reese's. I find that Reese's are just a bit too sweet.
Oreos and milk
People talk about eating "a whole sleeve" and I'm over here like, "wow I stopped myself after only one sleeve this time!"
That horrible feedback loop:
* I’m only going to face a few Oreos.
* opp. I’m out go Oreos but still have milk left, I’ll just get a few more to finish this off.
* now I’m out of milk but I still have Oreos. Let me just top the glass off.
* oh no there’s too left over milk, I should get a few more Oreos.
Andy Capp Hot Fries. "I'll just have a few" turns into an empty bag in no time!
These are the best hot fries. I can't stop either.
I know this is weird but it’s the carrots that I put in the crockpot with a beef roast. The au jus-cooked carrots are so damn good. I bought an enormous crockpot just so I could add more carrots since I like them so much.
I love both the carrots and the potatoes. I've even tossed around the idea of running 2 crockpots simultaneously so I can have that many leftover carrots and potatoes. And the best part is I would get them all because my picky af family only wants the roast.
Salt and vinegar chips.
Went without it for a few months and had to fly them in by plane. $$$
Love it when my tongue is burned for the next day or two
And the corners of your mouth are sore
Fresh donuts
Cheez-Its, open the box, suddenly it's 3am and I'm licking crumbs off my shirt
TO BE FAIR!
Why do they sell cheez its in a family size box that a single hand can easily fit inside over and over again?
Sure it’s bad to finish the whole box alone in the dark, but did they have to make the box the size specifically designed for my hand?
I rest my case.
nobody should judge you for this
They should join in
I know it's not a popular treat, but this is me with liquorice. No bag of the stuff lasts longer than 12 hours around me
"People who like the Grateful Dead are like people who like licorice. Not everybody likes licorice, but the people who like licorice really like licorice." - Jerry Garcia
Sweet and salty kettle corn or Chicago mix. The craftiest way to kill me would be putting out an endless supply.
Cinnamon rolls 🥲
Fruity Pebbles...that entire box is gone in one breakfast sitting.
Pasta, especially cold pasta salad. I will just flat-out inhale it
Potato chips and dip I could eat a whole tub of French onion dip in one sitting 😭
French onion dip is my absolute favorite thing. Especially with Lays. This is probably my #1 favorite snack for which I lack any self control 😅
Dot’s pretzels
Garlic parmesan flavor 🤤🤤
Especially the southwest flavor omg
Absolutely. We had a big Costco bag of them in the groomsmen’s hangout room at my brothers wedding. There was like 5 of us in there for maybe an hour and it never made it out.
Dutch Gouda cheese
Baklava.
Sour candy. But it has to be decently sour. There's a lot of gummies that are advertised as sour that are not, like sour worms. Sour Skittles though can fucking get it.
Bread bacon and eggs 🙂↔️ I love second breakfasts
M&Ms
Peanut M&Ms for me!
Oreos man. I’ll eat those until I’m ill.
The Mother's Circus Animal Cookies. You know the ones - white and pink with sprinkles. I will make myself sick with those, which is why I never ever buy them. LOL
Cake, specifically the cheap birthday cake you get at the grocery store. I could eat a whole 12" myself if given the chance. I don't know why. Im generally not a sweets person but for some reason that crap just makes me stupid lol
Fried Oyster Poboy. I moved from Louisina to Montana in my mid 20s. When I went back home to visit, I put on an additional 20 pounds over one week. Fried Oyster Poboys were the cause. I just couldn't stop eating them, even after I was stuffed.
Doritos, blazin buffalo ranch or spicy nacho :/
"Dorito Hangover" is a phrase in my personal lexicon
Crab legs! I polished off 2 lbs last week.
Home made chocolate chip cookies.
Kettle corn
Baked Lay's. Their original slogan was "bet you can't eat just one...bag." Facts.
Popcorn, evidently the large tubs at the movie theater are to share. Not eat during the movie and then get the free refill on the way out. Watching movies at home has saved my waist line some...
Pizza
Detroit pizza
Archway Windmill Cookies. Once I start, the whole box is doomed.
Peanut butter. Every now and then I buy a jar, promising myself I will only have one spoonful a day, and every time the entire jar is gone within 24 hours. Lesson never learned.
Pho
Snyder's honey mustard and onion pieces.
Kettle Corn Popcorners
How is fried chicken not the number one answer? If I could possess the bodies of other people, I would legit spend my entire time eating fried chicken and leaving them with heart disease, like some sort of typhoid Mary of chicken.
Pasta. In any form. It can be elbow, spaghetti, farfalle, etc. with nothing on it except butter, salt & pepper. I could eat this all day long.
Macarons, they're too expensive to be gobbling like oreos and I will eat all of them at once
Lindt chocolate
Those magical bottomless rolls with the delicious cinnamon butter at Texas Roadhouse
Girl Scout Thin Mints
Soft pretzels. Like auntie Anne’s
Oreos
Snicker doodle cookies 😋
Chocolate chip cookies. I’d be skinny if wasn’t for those. Subway has the best.
Yogurt covered pretzels can easily get woodchipped if left out ariund me!
Pringles. I know it's cliche, but once I pop I really can't stop. I'm eating the whole tube.
Chips
Peanut butter pretzels
French fries
those Pirouline hazelnut wafer sticks are my everything
I have a few.
First and foremost, it’s the sweet and spicy chili Doritos or tangy bbq Doritos or the sweet and spicy sriracha ones. I’m proud of myself on this one, have not bought any Doritos in over 2 months it’s the only way to stop me.
Also hint of lime tortilla chips. I’ll kill a whole bag of those and an entire jar of salsa in one sitting if I’m high and not paying attention. Guilty of doing this last weekend tbh. Terrible for me I know.
Last one - frozen grapes. I have to freeze them in multiple small containers because if I start in on 1 big container, it’s game over, that container will be GONE.
I cannot live without Simply White Cheddar Cheese Cheetoes, they are the bomb, so good. 😍
Oreos. I can eat a whole bag in one sitting . . . and have . . . many, many times. As close as I’ve ever been to being a drug addict.
Pizza with extra cheese
Cheese popcorn.
I know it's terrible for me but I love it.
Dried mango. Fresh persimmon. In shell pistachios but not as bad an issue as the other two.
I think this is more of a local product, but Lawson's French onion chip dip.
Holy. Shit.
Girl Scouts' Peanut Butter Patties
It wouldn't be so bad if they were in separate packaging... But you open the package for two cookies and HAVE to eat the entire thing!
https://abcbakers.com/list-of-cookies/peanut-butter-patties/
Oreos.
Can't have em in the house, or that whore little debbie
It's donuts or pizza for me. It's so bad that I live by the motto, a bad donut or bad pizza is better than no donut and no pizza.
Nachos. I could (do) eat them every day.
I can do crisp, chocolate or fresh bread with thick butter until my stomach is that full that my esophagus becomes storage space.
nachos
Salt and vinegar chips.
Watermelon 🍉
Baking powder biscuits with gravy. When I was laid off in fall 1980, I survived financially by having that for supper many nights all winter. Cheap, easy, good, and fattening.
I went back to work the next spring and lost 50 lbs. over the summer. I haven't made biscuits since.
Tates chocolate chip cookies, called them crack cookies since ‘03
Peanut butter m&ms. I can hold on to the sharing size bag for a while but as soon as I open it it'll be gonna in a couple of days.
I don't bother getting a bowl when I eat ice cream. I just try to stop myself before the whole carton is gone.
Especially if it’s got chunks you can dig for, like Cookies and cream or cookie dough
Get toffee away from me or I will binge!
this happened to me and my wife just last night. I suggested we portion out single servings into small bowls to avoid eating too much, but before I could even reach for the bowls I found my wife sitting on our couch eating straight out of the pint with a spoon. I didn't want to be a loser eating out of a bowl while she ate straight out of the pint so I just joined her. When we were done we pretty much finished the entire pint, and as I went to complain that we had nearly a day's worth of calories in ice cream, she responded with "at least we don't have more dishes to wash."
my wife's priorities are all over the place..
She had a good point!
She had a good pint!
Feeling embarrassed now... always assumed those pints were single servings.... lol
I kept picturing the half gallon tubs instead of the little pints and was congratulating myself, like maybe my relationship with ice cream isn't that abnormal and unhealthy.
Then I realized what I finish over half of in a sitting and what they are finishing over half of in a sitting are very different sizes and I got sad again about my ice cream dysfunction.
Right, this is like saying “my wife and I split a bottle of wine I can’t believe we drank so much” haha
We refuse to bring any into our house for the same reason. A pint between 2 unhinged adults does not last long
Between 2 adults?! Lightweights!
Right? We each get our own pint, thank you very much!
A whole pint? In this economy!?
Target does sales on Ben & Jerry's sometimes, like 2/$8. Worth it.
We’re bout bell half gallon people ourselves
Back when I had the metabolism of a young adult I'd grab a pint and a plastic spoon from the store as a single-serve container to be eaten on a nearby bench.
I miss those days.
both sad and glorious at the same time 😂
My brother & I have the running “joke” that a Ben & Jerry’s supposedly has 4 servings but I can only ever find 2. Or when I’m stress / emotional eating, just 1.
LOL. I only buy pints for this very reason.
Never got the point of an ice scream scoop, just give me a spoon and the carton
I make my own watermelon sherbet. It's amazing & delicious in a waffle cone. I can rarely eat just one cone...
