What's your food addiction?

Do you had a food that you just can't get enough of?? Right now I am all about the spuds from McAlister's Deli. I have one for lunch at least 3 times a week. I'm eating one now, which is what made me wonder if there was something you ladies always wanted to eat.

    I can't have it, but I ALWAYS want a birthday cake milkshake from Zaxby's minus the chocolate whipped topping. i had it when they first introduced it before I got serious about losing weight. I later found out that the shake is 860 calories so I nipped that real quick. I still want one though...lol.

    The thing that I sometimes give in to and ate quite often before this month are firecracker sticks from Fatz Cafe. Love them! Was so proud of myself for turning them down when FI offered me half of his order last week.

    Bread!!! I can literally can eat 4 to 5 pillsbury biscuits the big ones in one setting, just hand me some blackburn syrup. I can eat Sunbeam bread without anything just plain bread. That's my weakness! Wondering how I am able to maintain my weight. Definitely going to have to stay in the gym or lay off of it as I get older. I am also a candy lover, not much chocolate but skittles, starbursts, things like that.

    Don't laugh at me, but there's this gas station across the street from the community college near my job. I went there three times in one week for lumpia and fried rice. The lady knew my voice when I called to place my order and my car when I came in. Now I can eat that everyday and usually eat it once a week. I messed up and learned out to make lumpia over the weekend so that's what I have been eating!!

    I have the worst addiction to sweets.  I always have to have something sweet.  If someone brings candy, cookies, brownies, to school or work I just have to taste it.  I really need to lay off and up my workout regimen so I'm not huge for the wedding.  

    @eagles, I saw that you said you started eating jell-o as your sweets, I think I'm going to try that because I'll try to stop eating sweets cold turkey and after a couple of days I eat every sweet thing I see like I'm trying to make up for lost time lol.  The only thing is, one day I may just want something sweet and the next I may want something specific, so I'll have to see if the jell-o will be able to curb those cravings.

    I also love cheese and bread, but I have it bad for sweets.

    Mine is anything sour! I love lemons with salt, green olives, pickles andthing sour. MY FI bought me a big jar of Hot Dill pickles for my birthday and I loved that more than the Michael Kors purse that came with the pickles. Wow my mouth is watering just thinking of it right now!  :)

    Chick-fil-A Spicy Chicken Sandwich meal!! I had one yesterday and ate it so fast that I got a little sick. I'm just being greedy now, I think I do quite a bit of emotional eating. I need to stop.

    I am addicted to so many things.  I just love food.  DH would say that it is Chinese food and anything from Chick Fil A.  I agree but I will also add french fries. I loooove french fries.  Oh yeah and my grandma would say that I am addicted to fried chicken (hence my love for chick-fil-a, although that's not the kinda good southern friend chicken that I like).  She said that some day I'm going to fly away. LOL
