I agree with the above list except for chocolate, which isn't one of my weaknesses.
What would you add?
Without hesitation: chicken wings.
Wings should be on that list.
Pistachios
Mmmmm chocolate chip cookie ice cream.
Shocker. Companies design, produce, and sell products that make you want to buy and eat more of them.

Sure. But I can see it now. Obama will declare food addiction a crisis. Insurance companies will be forced to pay for expensive therapy to cure these addictions. And for the “poor” the cost of treatment will be borne by the taxpayers.
One more way for the Obama administration to steal even more money from the citizens.
Few people can walk away from a strip of bacon.
Pistachios combine so well with the ice cream. Pistachio flavored ice cream. Pistachios in ice cream. And I’m not opposed to a bag of pistachios. As you suggest, they do disappear quickly.
I had a BLT for breakfast. Definitely one of the top 3 or 4 sandwiches ever created.
I don’t know, xzins.. I think the word “addiction” is just so overused today. I see an addiction as having a physical withdraw when not using the product. For example, an alcoholic will go into DT’s. Or a truly addicted person will keep “upping” the amount. The yummies (and they are yummies) listed are things people crave.. feel good when eating and simply taste divine.
A few billion Muslims would walk away from that bacon strip.
After eliminating most processed foods about 5 years ago, I can take it or leave it with pizza, chips, etc. Except for anything with buffalo sauce.
Totally agree with you on wings, but really it’s the sauce that is so good. There are times, I am ashamed to admit, that I stand at the counter eating Frank’s Red Hot by the spoonful.
As desert, after pizza!
I’m looking at this on the humorous side and letting the idea of ‘food you have a hard time putting down’ guide what I say.
Any kind of food that YOU ‘crave’? See, I didn’t you the “A” (addiction) word. :>)
McDonalds may have invented it, or at least they brought it to nationwide popularity, but it's a poor substitute for what can be made quite easily at home.
My spin on the "Egg McMuffin" is this:
Way better than what you get at McDonalds.
Have you ever mixed hot sauce 2:1 with ketchup for your fries? Beats ketchup alone by a mile.
WOOF!
Any kind of food that YOU crave? See, I didnt you USE the A (addiction) word. :>)
Cheese.
