Cheez-its. I can polish off the whole box in less than 24 hours. I also found a box of chocolate covered marshmellows at Alidi's that were TO DIE FOR. Ate the entire box less than 8 hours later. Good thing they are a seasonal item otherwise I'd be in trouble.

Krispy Kreme donuts. Get a dozen glazed hot off the donut machine. DH and I will down a dozen, so it is only 6 each. They have a drive thru! The only good thing about getting them fresh is you get snobby about it and not buy the less fresh ones at the grocery store. ETA: Not "the only good thing", but the best side effect, I should say.

Ben & Jerry's 4 servings my ass Yup, that's exactly where all four servings seem to go. For me, it's the Thin Mints from the Girl Scouts. No way crack could be as addictive as those.

Anyone try Brookside crackberries Chocolate Pomegranate? I was introduced to them at a girl's weekend several years ago. Costco carries them. I finally had to stop buying them, I had utterly no self control over eating them and can kill a Costco sized bag in entirely too short a time. I also introduced them to several others too..... Yes, and I did it because you had mentioned these awhile ago. It's your fault I still buy them. And speaking of chocolate crack, don't even think of buying these: Holy crazy in a bag, Batman! I have no idea why these are even resealable!

Anything salty and crunchy. Potato chips (regular, not flavored), tortilla chips with salsa, pita chips....I finish the bag every time. Me too. Chips and salsa especially. Or chips and guacamole. Or chips and queso. Seriously, just slather something on a tortilla chip and give it to me!!

I have no idea why these are even resealable! The brownie brittle is delicious! Not a fan of the "crackberries." It's just fruit flavoring and mediocre dark chocolate. No thanks. Not to say I'm snobby about sweets on which I gorge; I will totally eat Skittles like it's my job. Chips and guacamole are a definite downfall!

LOL...Its a rare treat that is not allowed in the house most of the time. Its funny too because I buy a half gallon of any other brand and it doesnt tempt me at all. I dont have a huge sweet tooth but B&Js.....give me some yummy carbs though like mashed potatoes and gravy with fresh bread....OMG. I really do limit how much I make or I'd be in trouble.

I have realized that most any "junk" or "comfort" food is my downfall as I read through this thread. Sooooo many times I've thought reading a post. I'm also starving now.

Chocolate covered pretzels. I like both the Trader Joes brand and the Flipz. I can eat an entire bag in a few minutes.

I sent ODS back to college today and felt sad to see him go, so I ate about 10 large cream cheese sugar cookies to soothe my soul. Well, that sounds much better than telling you I ate the 10 cookies to celebrate that he finally left.

I have a hard time stopping anything sweet, or salty/crunchy. My mother once made the smart observation that sweet stuff leaves an aftertaste that can be overcome- by eating more.
I'm pretty careful. I'll ask for one tortilla chip out of the bag DH is eating, then do something else. Or, I'll bake a batch of cookies for the church coffee hour without sampling (hey, all cookies taste good) and have one when they're almost all gone.

Oh my aunt gave me a smoked herring as a Christmas present. That thing was gone fast. There is also this blue cheese brie that does not last long. I almost had a divorce when DH tossed my last little bit that I was saving for when we had chicken wings.

I almost had a divorce when DH tossed my last little bit that I was saving for when we had chicken wings. Your post reminded me of a stinky cheese I enjoyed as a kid. It's called Liederkrantz cheese. Quite tasty on crackers and the like. And your mentioning of herring reminded me of herring with sweet onions in sour cream (Vita brand). Another tasty treat which I have not had in many, many years..

Cambozola is the type of cheese I was talking about. Looks good. I once had a thin slice of Stilton cheese on a steak. Very good. It looks like your cheese may be good on a steak too.

I have used the Cambozola with mushrooms and onions on a black and blue steak. Very yummy.

One of my favorites - Keebler's Fudge Sticks. One package lasted me 3 days.

If you like spicy you should try the Chili bar. It leaves you with some nice heat in your mouth but doesn't effect/ruin the taste of the chocolate. They've done a nice job with that one. I live right next to a Lindt outlet, the employees all know me . I do like the chili bar... i've pretty much tried them all but the sea salt is my go to! I buy them in bulk on amazon. I get 12 bars a month! lord help me if i lived next to the outlet! in my defense though... I never had a crazy chocolate addiction until I had to give up dairy and eggs as well as minimize flour and sugar in my diet. Though, back then, I could polish off a nice wedge of manchego and a bottle of cab with no problem. If you like chocolate with sea salt, have you tried Ghiradelli's dark chocolate with sea salt And nuts (it has little pieces of nuts in them - I don't remember if it's almonds or hazelnuts. I can eat a whole bar at one sitting.

The Lindt sea salt truffles are a challenge to eat just one or two. And the Lindt peanut butter truffles are pretty tasty -- sometimes I like them better than Reese's cups.

There are Lindt sea salt truffles? Popcorn, namely white cheddar popcorn is my downfall. Could eat an entire bag if I don't exercise some restraint. also I can't make a box of Kraft mac & cheese without eating all of it, and really any kind of cheese I can eat a lot of. Oh, and pita chips and parmesan goldfish! Could eat a whole bag of those in one sitting. mmmm... cheese...

I am a chocolate snob... milk chocolate rarely does it for me. And I can easily pass up most American chocolate. Hershey is disgusting. I am also a cheese snob. Or at least I was. Since I don't get to eat it anymore I would probably eat some damn kraft cheese at this point! Sent from my SM-G920T using proboards

Definitely not as good, but I'd still take them. I'll have to look for them. I think I had a dream about buying chocolate last night after this post. (but it was my pliable coworker who was doing the buying.. I'll have to ask him if he has any chocolate today )
