As soon as it is out of the frying pot i have to eat it.

What I'm eating this very minute - canned bean dip with melted cheese on top and taco chips.

If I die of congestive heart failure one day, it will be from all the bean dip clogging my arteries. I'm the ONLY person I know that loves this stuff the way I do.

Okay, I used to buy a bag of Doritos simply to lick the salt/cheese off of each one and then throw the soggy Doritos out.
I could eat sour cream right from the container with no pretense of it being a dip for something else.

When I was a kid, I used to eat handfuls of Lawry's seasoned salt. I would just pour it in the palm of my hand and lick.

Amazingly, my blood pressure has always been on the low side.

Does anyone have/or had any food indulgences that might be considered a health risk?
Um, I'm a very in shape guy for my age (33 years old, 6'0" 145-150 pounds) but if people saw my eating habits they'd cry. I eat pounds of cheese every week. I'll eat an entire bag of shredded cheese (melted on top) with my dinner and follow that up with handfuls of candy. I do that nearly every night. Lately I've been telling myself I need to quit the daily candy binges, but it's easier said than done.

I have a bad bread monkey on my back.
We have the most incredible boulangeries here and I just can't resist.

I was going to say - anything you do only 5 times in your life, isn't gonna kill ya. I'm closer to the 5000 mark with the ice cream, too!

However, I still eat it when I want to. I'm 67 and very healthy!

My metabolism never came back. I became one of those cooks who taste and spit. And ice cream, love it though I do, is out of the question except rarely.

wow we were separated at birth. I used to do this with saltines. I had a weird sense of shame looking at the stack of soggy crackers afterwards though.
