What foods can't you live without?

Obsessively eating pickles?

Continuously munching on carrots?

I have a penchant for beans... yup - baked beans. And if I didn't have my tea... I'd shrivel up.

I can definitively say that I do not obsessively eat pickles. I do like pickles, though...

I have a true weakness for tortilla chips. Can't seem to leave them alone once I crack open a bag. I don't buy them as much anymore.

Custard creams, defiantly. I always have a few packs stored in the cupboard.
I'm too old for this!

Three foods I seem to eat nearly every day, and start to feel deprived if I don't have any over the course of a few days: skim milk, natural peanut butter, and chocolate. I usually combine them in a low-fat, healthy smoothie (using cocoa powder and sugar to control the unhealthiness).

A food that I can't seem to stop eating? Probably cheesy poofs. They're like air, and so I can eat nearly a whole bag by myself in one sitting. Which is why I never ever buy them. And fudge... it's so little, but so rich, that I eat more than I should when it's around. Halvah, too...

Yes, this is why I avoid certain aisles of the grocery store completely, and have the rule "if you want to eat it, you have to make it from scratch." And then never have the ingredients on hand.

Hmm, cos of my intolerances... it kinda restricts what I can eat. I can't have anything with durum wheat, cow's milk, egg, rye or yeast... which used to pretty much be the majority of my diet.

I've since had to change what I munch on. Sweets-wise, my vice has to be skittles. I can have them without blowing up to the size of a large cow.

Oranges. Proper oranges, not satsumas or anything like that. Tangerines are acceptable, too. And chocolate, of course.

I miss chocolate - but I haven't had the guts yet to order the goats milk-made chocolate from the net... maybe someone could point them out to Kai... get them as a pressie.

I've replaced my chocolate needs with Thorntons Mint Crumbles... I'm sadly (or should I say happily) addicted.

Blood oranges are pretty awesome, but I've never had blood orange juice. In fact, I can't remember seeing it in a store at all apart from when I went to a movie/comic/media expo and they were selling them for £8 with the True Blood logo and name slapped on. Rip-off, much? :battar:

I would say ramen, but I don't eat it that much (anymore). I would indulge in fig newtons if I have them, and peanut butter on toast is quick enough to make. so...seems like I need to get a better diet. ;)

Ramen. Oh, Ramen. I remember eating that all the time. Price was right. Easy to make. Mmmm. Salty.

That and Mac 'n Cheese. Mmmm. Powdered Cheesy. Blech.

My mom cant have milk, and she just gets dairy-free dark chocolate. She also gets Rice Dream. No milk, no eggs :)

For me, I would have to say soda. Just soda in general. Coke, Sprite, Mountain-Dew or anything else. But other sugary drinks like lemonade will do.

I'm not exactly choosy about my food, but I'd definitely have to say cheddar cheese. And none of your wimp stuff; anything below sharp might as well be American.
Do what you will; but I will hinder it if I may.

I loooove cheddar cheese. I'm more of a medium/sharp person, though. By American, do you mean cheese made in America, or these... things?

Yes, yes, that abomination unto nature. Not necessarily the Singles, but same basic concept.

Weird fact: Canadians call it Canadian cheese. Why in God's name anyone would dispute national claims to that sort of thing... it would be far more fitting if the terminology were switched. Like with syphilis, which the French called English pox and the English called French pox.
