Addicted to...nothing I don't think (going by the strict definition of addiction)

Now, as for foods I only eat very rarely, rarely (or not even one a month) because I know I would eat them every day if I could:
-- pizza
-- potato salad
-- French fries (and what a place near here calls mega fries: 2 kinds of cheese and bacon sprinkles on top)
-- Chinese food
-- fried food
-- ice cream (hardly, hardly ever)
-- frozen yogurt (soft serve from a place where you put on toppings) -- maybe on average once a month

Most of these I might not have for 6 months or more -- and them have 2-3 times in one week. It just depends. Am I in the neighborhood or area where a particular shop is? Am I just deciding that "what the heck I felt like having _____?"

For example, 2-3 times a year maybe -- IF I'm really hungry and the mood is just right, I might go to McDonald's.

One food I've given up completely (for more than 20 years) because even I joked to myself that I was addicted: Doritos.
I don't know what's in, or sprinkled on, those chips, but for me, I just had to leave them alone.

When my BF shows up with a loaf for me it's the same exact feeling as others feel about getting flowers.


Ugh, me too! With some fantastic whipped, herbed and salted butter...over the top!

And Italian bread makes the best French toast.

Kroeger's has Potato Sticks, which I hadn't had in years. They're like a drug, don't eat one if you don't want to get addicted. I told my husband, please take the bag and don't bring any more home.

Hmm... I see a lot of Ramen with discarded seasoning packet... While yes, it's high in sodium and junk, I believe the instant noodles are really the worst part of the meal.

That being said, I'm a sucker for the broth (that means the seasoning itself in water.) For a quick fix at lunch time, I sometimes throw frozen vegetables into a bowl, water, and add the seasoning packet. I don't care much for the noodles themselves... Not the cheap ones that come in the packets anyway. I just love the seasonings. (MMmmmmmmmm... MSG)

Cadbury Cream Eggs! Thank God that they only sell them around Easter. Otherwise, I would weight about 700 pounds. I can inhale them.
