Oh, yeah. I love liverwurst too. But only the Oscar Meyer kind that comes in the little plastic tube. The Braunschweiger.

I wouldn't TOUCH liver under ordinary circumstances, but I love that stuff. On crackers.

I used to like Elio's Square Pizza, but they changed the cheese when McCann's bought them out.

There are a lot of foods that I like that I am not embarrased to enjoy, like Cheetos. Or certain types of children's sugary cereals, like Cocoa Puffs and Sugar Pops and Sugar Smacks, especially if there is a good toy surprise inside.

But I guess I am embarrassed by liking Pringles.

I will on occasion eat potted meat - not as good as Deviled Ham, but cheaper.

that's two people who say they don't like ice cream. I think we're being invaded by aliens.

My best friend in High School didn;t like ice cream either.
She blessed the onset of adolescence - she no longer had to explain herself at parties.

OMG -- Ice cream is food directly from heaven! Not only does it taste good, it makes me FEEL good. Even if it's not chocolate. It's my absolute favorite food.

But about embarrassing . . . I guess I'm most embarrassed by craving junky fast-food like Whoppers, cheesy crap from Taco Bell, White Castles, Chipotle burritos the size of my head, footlong meatball hoagies, etc. This is food for teenage-20 something boys who burn calories like a freight train, not 42-year-old women who really ought to be eating a salad instead. With light dressing on the side.

There is NOTHING, I say NOTHING wrong with loving Chipotle burritos. In fact, I think we need to go do a Chipotle run for lunch today.

Embarrassed about: pringles. All-bran. Fritos. Damn, now that I think about it: any sort of snack-chip. Chocolate cookies from the caf at work.

click the buttons, and be honest


the way I like them it's 1140 calories, 52 grams of fat. I don't go there anymore.

Exactly as I got it last Sunday: 555 calories, 20 grams of fat. I got a steak salad with pintos, fajita veggies, corn salsa, pico de gallo and sour cream. No huge problem there, I think. No simple carbs, either. Being a diabetic has a few advantages. It's crazy with the sodium, but hey. Half my daily fiber, too.

...looking at it, I might be better off getting guac instead of sour cream. Something to think about.

Fajita burrito with barbacoa meat, rice, cheese, hot sauce and corn relish, sour cream. 950 calories, 41g fat, but the real kicker for me is the 2630 mg of sodium, 110% daily value. Yikes! Good for a treat now and then, but not a regular thing!

I had one last Thursday . . .

Sardines. On crackers or sandwiches, or right out of the can.
