Fellow Foodies, what is the food you splurge on? (whisky, health, bread)

[Davachka]

Cocoa almonds (everyday snack lol)
olives
extra virgin olive oil
cheeses
sprouted grain breads
amazing tasting protein powders (hey I'm a fitness/foodie)
Carbquick
various nut butters
coffee
I think I could go on and on...

See's chocolates whenever I visit California, good one Fontucky.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil, fancy cheeses on occasion, sometimes wine, fancy olives, salamis, etc.

I do buy a lot of fresh produce but I save a lot of money by avoiding most of the boxed foods.

Oh I almost forgot, I splurge on ordering Peet's Tea shipped to the house.

I'm 5 miles from a fully-stocked See's store. Must. Exercise. Control.

Grass-fed beef and free range chicken/eggs -- the flavor is so much better, and the beef is much leaner.

Organic and/or locally grown produce (and the canning supplies to preserve much of it through the winter)

A kazillion different flavors and varieties of tea

Low-carb baked goods

The 10 cans of Skyline Chili I brought back from Cincinnati last weekend ...

truffle oil
organic produce
fresh artisan bread
free range eggs
fair trade coffee
decent wine (I just can't do the box wine or even the $2/3 Chuck)
microbrew beer
fresh salsa and guacamole
corn fed Nebraska beef
fresh seafood
fresh herbs

Jesh. wow...well we have our own couple of free range chickens that provide plenty for us.

Splurge Items: That depends on the amount of $$ left over to splurge

Whenever we make the run to Albuquerque we do go and have--SUSHI.....CHURASI FOR ME.

-a nice big T-bone or Porterhouse or even better yet a RIB-eye
-love Seafood, hard to get except frozen...but maybe towards the holidays--a lob tail,
-artisian bread
-and I get my lady See's on birthdays, holidays, anniversary, or just when I can. See's is about a 3 hour drive for us. Only (1) store in NM, but, during the cold times I have had it mailed and it was fine.
---last but not least a nice Rib Roast
-oh, maybe a goose to roast
-oh, can't forget a really good Bottle of Scotch...
-maybe even a good bottle of wine
That's all folks.
