Fresh fruit, vegetables, yoghurts, and granola. :)
If I don't eat the fruits/veggies my body starts to hate me. ;)

I don't eat fast food and I purposely boycott it and even if I am traveling with friends I'll not eat or eat something else rather than eat it.

OMFG... Nuits-Saint-Georges, Cote D'Or Burgundy... just had a 2004 bottle by Marchand and it is silky as f-u-c-k. Rich and deep, but not overwhelmingly so... fruity enough, but certainly not like drinking a glass full of Ribena. Just a teeny-tiny hint of spice or oak, if at all. Oh-so-balanced. At less than 20 quid, we're not talking top of the range or even premium vintages, but if you like red wine, then NSG comes highly recommended! :tongue:

Yup, cheese is kewl. My latest "thing" is for Feta cheese in Greek salads and pasta dishes. Brie and Camembert are good, but I only like them when young and firm (sound familiar? ;) :bigrin:)... not too keen on it when it goes mushy and excessively soft. For sandwiches, I LOVE Swiss cheese! And any of those ones like Gouda, Jarlsberg, Leerdammer, Emmental, Havarti, etc. Oh, and if you haven't tried Wensleydale WITH CRANBERRIES, then you simply MUST!!! Parmeasan is also superb shaved into salads, etc.

I think the ONLY cheeses I DON'T like are ones like Gorgonzola, Blue Cheese, and anything that smells REALLY unpleasant.

Wow, what a healthy diet. They used to sell "Pop Tarts" over here a while back, but after the novelty wore off, everyone stopped buying them, and they withdrew them from stores. I think I still remember trying the chocolate ones... they were weird... gimme a slice of toast (or a waffle/pancake) instead for breakfast anyday.

LOL, I bet it was!!! heehee.... Well I have not tried making baked brie myself, but have seen it made and obviously had it when I've been out. The way I've had it/seen it made is it has been wrapped in a puff pastry, making sure all seams are sealed and then a couple of "notches" cut into the top to let the steam out and baked til the puff pastry is puffed and golden brown...God, I wish I could've seen that tho! What a mess that must have been! LOL:eek:

Fried Chicken
Watermelon
New York Strip Steak - Medium Rare
Anything containing caramel
Biscuits and Gravy
Jerk Chicken
Ackee and Saltfish
Lobster
Shrimp
A really good calzone
Sbarro's Pizza
Cheetos
Barbecued Ribs
Crawfish Etoufe
Jambalaya
Fried Dill Pickles (if you don't live in the South, you don't know.)
Fresh cold tomatos
Cookie Dough Ice Cream

I have to have the following to exist:

Oreos, not too many at a time, but I have to have them.
T-bone steak off the grill.
Rice Krispies.
A big glass of skim milk.
Mashed potatoes and gravy. Usually beef, turkey or chicken gravy.
I love a good meatloaf, meatballs, turkey, chicken (skinless) and hamburgers.
Ham that soaked with pineapple slices.
Being a Minnesotan, I crave a good hotdish on cold winter days. Uff da!
To me, pancakes are small gifts from heaven when done right.
I love pineapple jam in my PBJ sammwiches.


My wife has taken upon herself to introduce me to healthier foods, so ask me again in a year!!

All those yummy combinations of carbs, cheeses, and tomato sauces we attribute to the Italians.

Nov 4, 2015, 6:19 PM
Lasagna, cheesecake, Cobb salad, and chef salad are my favorite foods. I'm totally addicted to eating salads! I'm taking about vegetable based salads. I actually really hate mayonnaise based salads. I crave salads so much that if I go more than a day or so without eating a salad, I'm ready to tear down the walls for one. Salads are the one food I couldn't live without. The irony is that as a child I absolutely hated salads! My parents forced me to eat salads a few times when I was a boy, and I would gag trying to eat them I hated them so much. As a very athletic teenager I started really loving salads. I ate salads almost everyday by the time I was in college. It's kind of ironic that I went from being the biggest salad hater, to being one of the biggest salad lovers you'll ever meet. It still amazes my parents to see me happily eating big salads.

Here's the tie in between my favorite foods, my personality, and sex. People have told me that my love of salads is kind of unusual in that I'm the only man they know who actually claims that salads are my favorite food. That's also true for me personally. I've never met another man who claims salads as their favorite food. Moreover, I've had people say that my addiction to eating salads is an effeminate trait in my personality, because they only know women who love salads as much as I do, including my first feeder. I always thought that was very strange. I don't understand how being addicted to salads is a feminine trait of my personality. I've always thought that food is kind of gender neutral, and that my favorite foods don't really characterize my personality. Sorry for being so long winded, but some of my experiences with my favorite foods have been very peculiar.

Nov 6, 2015, 6:17 AM
Pizza !Fond as I am of the occasional pizza, Pep, I have 2 admit that but for the kids it is something we wud have less of and if I never had ne ever again, I wudn't miss it in least.. and those overblown deep pan things are pretty grim... not for me at all... tho Kate and the kids will happily munch through a 9 or 10" thus placing ther arse size in serious danger in fullness of time.. and I kno our eldest daughter nips in for a pizza a bit more often than is gud for her wen out on dates or wiv 'er m8s..

..but wile I dont mind if I never have another pizza long as I live.. think I wud go in2 serious withdrawal if cheese of almost ne kind suddenly disappeared from me life.. ver little nicer than cheese n wine.. and garlic, tomato, peppers n chillies vanishing wud serpently not help me enjoy life.. cheese 2 can do serious damage 2 the figure if we munch too much too often, so sparingly is best and of course that helps to increase enjoyment in the flavour.. and nev eat it str8 from the fridge! Get it out of the fridge for at least an hour b4 munching. Around 10c flavour is at its best!

I'm also a lover of your aforementioned foods & consume them regularly. From that selection, I would have the hardest time giving up garlic. My consumption is even higher during this time of year as it inevitably ends up in generous amounts in all my comfort foods. Now if I could just get my hands on a nice 12" self-rising, grilled chicken, garlic flavored pizza.........:tongue: :impleased ;)
