I seem to be addicted to a new junk food every month. This month it has been Goldfish crackers..and maybe they aren't really a junk food, per say (or at least i try telling myself that..haha) but when you eat an entire box to yourself at one time, it's a little much. :wah: Waaay too many fish in the sea!

Before that, it was Twix. Before that, also nachos, but cheese instead. velveeta and some rotelle tomatoes...yummm.

My favorite of all time..is..Ketchup chips. But I'll be damned if they dont sell them anywhere I have looked in wisconsin!! I miss them..:(

I found them here in a walmart once..bought two bags..went back about a month or two later..and they were sold out, and than kept going back every couple of days..and now they don't sell them anymore!!! :mad:

Ohhhh those are really good! Cheese curds are awesome. I never heard of Battered cheese curds either before I came here. In Ontario, cheese curds were just the cheese bits. Never heard of them being battered and deep fried before though. But they're awesome!

I went to this one local restaurant here once and they were the size of baseballs, no lie. :eek:

Chili-Cheese Fries



Frito's and Bean-Dip



Fried Ice cream - This one is a rare treat I haven't had it for about 2 years.
The poolhall's a great equalizer. In the poolhall, nobody cares how old you are, how young you are, what color your skin is or how much money you've got in your pocket... It's about how you move. I remember this kid once who could move around a pool table like nobody had ever seen. Hour after hour, rack after rack, his shots just went in. The cue was part of his arm and the balls had eyes. And the thing that made him so good was... He thought he could never miss. I know, 'cause that kid was me.

I miss Taco Bells Chili-Cheese Fries! For some reason the menu's are different from Ontario Taco Bells and the ones here. They don't have any fries here. Your side dish is another taco!

But Taco Bells Chilli Cheese ones in Ontario are the bessst.

And Fritos! I can't find BBQ corn chips anywhere here either..:mad:

Fried Ice cream is awesome. I've only had it once, but it was that memorable.

I have a bad habit of eating these peanutbutter wafer cookies.I keep telling my self that it's protein just too fool myself.

as some of you know,I work at Frito-Lay,and yes we do taste test the product.

Doritos just out of the fryer are too die for,and fritos right out of the warm seasoner will bring you too your knees.Smart food popcorn is also very popular.

You can always spot the newbies,they are stuffing there face.Us old timers know better,after a while you don't eat much but a hand full every here and there.

Good thing is that most every one one thee has a designated spot in there house where they store the chips they bring home for there loved ones.i have a cabinet in my kitchen right now that has Doritos,Smart food popcorn,salt&vinegar,and sour cream and onion chips in it.

Hey Delilah,i might be able too hook you up with some Frito's BBQ.

Anything deepfried.. but my very very favorite...

Buffalo wings and beer.....

the kinda wings that clear the sinuses when you smell them from 100 yards away... nuclear bad boys.. with beer.....

REAL beer.. not that ultra stuff.. tastes like water with a dash of beer flavor...but REAL BEER.. and nice robust full, malty porter... or gasp.. a stout with a head soooooooo thick and creamy you can float a half dollar on it......

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Yeah, that just makes me want to call Jenny Craig!!

I try to stay away from deep fried foods, and especially if they are already REALLY bad for me...why I've never tried the snickers...friend says they are "da bomb"...yeah she's young, she can say that!! :wah:

When i went to Florida a few years ago, my family and i went to Hooters to get something to eat. Although i'd heard reference to Hooters in a movie i thought it was fictional. I nearly died when i realised why this place was called Hooters, not the place to take your Dad and Brother, don't think they looked once to see what they were eating!!! Kids loved it though coz Mini me from Austin Powers was in there!

I loved dunkin doughnuts, yummy, I like the ones with pink icing and hundreds and thousands on the top :)
I am nobody..nobody is perfect...therefore I must be Perfect!

Not that it matters, ummm, I took him there because he always teased me that he wanted to go, never went on his own or with friends, first time he ever went was with me and a guy friend of mine...and only time...He did like the wings....ummm scenery wasn't half bad....he couldn't believe I was "cool" with it...not somewhere I would "hang out" but okay at the time.....
