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

Posted on 08/23/2005 8:32:28 AM PDT by 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!

I agree!

Where's the Blue Belle Chocolate Ice cream,
or the Butterfingers,
or the homemade biscuits (with lard, of course) and syrup???

I disagree about snowballs and fruit pies being nasty. They are good to a lot of people and are comfort foods to many. They serve their purpose.

You can pick on me because I happened to have 2 snowballs for breakfast. They are seasonal at Kroger. The outside of the coconut goo is painted different colors for the season but it all tastes regular.

Another of my favorite Hostess type snacks is the more than wonderful Suzy Q's.

By the way, I'm having minute steaks with Kroger steak sauce and baked potato with sour cream for supper. I ran out of Hawaiian Punch so I'll have ice water.

Exactly (about the cheese)...
Real cheese, the sharper or stronger the better.

That processed stuff tastes like plastic and sticks to your teeth!

Whomever invented it should get life in prison without parole.
