Corn Nuts...ugh!
I used to love 'em until I ate an entire bag of them (ranch flavor) and then did shots of Jim Beam with my friends.
Lets just say that when I puked my guts out later, it wasn't pretty.
I've never eaten them since.

When I was down in Australia, I had this snack called Burger Rings.
They're kind of like cheeseburger flavored Funyuns and were darn tasty!
I wish they sold them here in the U.S.


Of course, Burger Rings!  How could I forget?  They are da schiznit.
Flower, gleam and glow
Let your power shine
Make the clock reverse
Bring back what once was mine
Heal what has been hurt
Change the fates' design
Save what has been lost
Bring back what once was mine
What once was mine.......

Wouldn't say it's a 'comfort food' or junk food or anything, but I've been having a bunch of milkshakes lately.

I work at a restaurant (small mom and pop type of chain here) with a selection of like, 50-60 milkshake options.  Damn they're good.

Used to love Mallo Cups, but haven't seen those 'round here in a very long time. 
When I was in the mood for dry cookie and sweet sugar, I went for the Oreo competitor, Hydrox.  I also like Vienna Fingers and the blonde Oreos, which I haven't seen for at least a decade, probably longer.  I must not forget VAN-O-LUNCH, a blonde dry biscuit with thin sugary "creme" center (like Oreo).  They were typically found in vending machines, and the Foodtown near my home sells them in mini-cases of 6 pkgs with 6 cookies each... I won't eat any of that stuff anymore, but I think my body is built on that sh!t.  Okay, I did polish of 36 Van-O-Lunch a few weeks ago... and I still buy FRITOS every six weeks or so.   :teddyr:

All time favorite...onion bagels and cream cheese!  hmmmmmm

For a little bit I really wanted was milkshakes, so I used to get Milkshakes like every other day or so during my lunch break.

Another snack food I love:



I might be in the minority on it, but I like them.

Really?  I was never really into them until recently.  Put on five pounds, but eh, I enjoy them.  I've tried to cut back.

This was just a few weeks ago.  I stopped that only after a week or so of having them.

All my life? 

Fruit and berries.  I love apples, oranges, bananas, mango, pears, peaches, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. 

Toasted bread with peanut butter and honey on top, with a glass of milk.

For decadent, mint chocolate chip ice cream or Reese's Cups (or, this time of year, Reese's peanut butter eggs).

Nachos, popcorn, and Jelly Bellies are my weakness... That and Chinese food.

JUJY FRUITS!  Almost bought a box today, but knew that if I did, I'd finish tonight and decided to be good (and only bought a bag of LAYS Potato Chips...)   :tongueout:

Not sure I've loved them all my life, but as far back as I can remember, I've digged Gardettos Snack'Ens.  They're a bit on the pricey side though, and not available in too many stories.

As far as fruits go, my personal favorites are plums and oranges.  Get them whenever I get to the supermarket.

You like Reese's Cups?  We have Reese's cups milkshakes at work.  We don't actually put them in the shakes, but use our own ingredients, and damn if it isn't good.  Like drinking a Reese's.  Decent.

Candy wise I'm with Happy Gilmore, Peeps are good, real good.  All my life, I've enjoyed most Wonka kind of candies like Runts, Nerds, Bottle Caps, etc.  I usually allow myself to eat them on my diet because they're fat free.  Carbs don't seem to effect me much.  I recall my godmother always having the soft pepermint candies which brings me back to good old days whenever I eat them. 

I'm also a lifelong Wheat Thin addict.  Especially the reduced fat ones.

Childhood food addictions I wish I could eat regularly but don't due to my low fat diet;
Devil Dogs-this is a major one.  From elementary school lunch to a few years ago I packed one with every lunch.

I agree about the Wonka stuff.  Love the Bottle Caps, but haven't had them in years.

I love Nerd Ropes.  If you haven't had them, try it.
