Super Secret Guilty Pleasure Foods (vanity)
PA times | 8/23/05 | Dr. Pissant

Most of us take pride in the fact that we have some knowledge of proper nutrition and diet. Many of us run, bike, or do other vigorous exercise to maintain or college figures.

But there are some foods, often discovered in our youth, that no matter how nutritionally worthless they may be, are just too darn tasty to give up.

We may not tell our friends and loved ones, and we'll hide them under the other groceries in the supermarket, but somehow these guilty pleasure find a way into our gullets!

So without further adieu...

Top 5 Guilty Pleasure Foods

5. Velveeta Cheese. Who knows if there is any dairy product in this stuff. But darn it tastes good smothering nachos or melted on a toasted cheese sandwich!

4. Chicken in a Biscuit. The perfect cracker to compliment Velveeta. It's good to know that MSG and powder made from dry chickens can be so addicting!

3. Vienna Sausages. Though these little gems are not likely to show up as an appetizer at a fancy party, give me that yummy taste of Mechanically Separated Chicken and pork over cavier anytime!!

2. Sardines. Something about little stinky fish in a can turns off alot of people. But the fond memories of camping trips eating these oily creatures on a saltine cracker....

1. Hot and Spicy Pork Rinds. I know these delicious fried chunks of pig fat made a comeback during the Atkins craze. But some of us never abandoned these carnivorous treats! PETA be damned!

Bacon is great. But ONLY if it's not all flibbledy. Gotta be crispy.

The flibbledy part is the best. :-)

One of the best episodes ever! ("Beer Baron" was the best)

Thankfully I work nights so I dont have to endure watching my co-workers eat entire meals... They just snack, which can be just as bad... Especially the girls that I work with that are, well, oversized.... Yes, eating 3 or 4 packs of Lorna doons will most definitely contribute to your fat a$$, so stop eating them!! Fortunately for them, I would never say it, but sure as hell think it. :o)

OK. Sounds good! I do remember I liked it...and my mom said it was "all sugar" and she wouldn't buy it anymore. No stores around here carry it that I've seen...but then again I haven't actually LOOKED for it.

Omigosh, that would make me puke. That is the way my hubby likes it, too.

Might as well eat boiled chicken skin, too. Which I have actually seen my husband do, and I promptly threatened him with divorce if he EVER did it again.

That stuff is great. Every now and then I chop it up and make sh*t on a shingle, just to relive my school lunches.

I'm going to have to try that...can't believe I never have. Mom always pushed the veggies when I was growing up. You couldn't find a potato chip in the house. :)
