What's your culinary guilty pleasure?

[Underseer]

Sometimes I get a taste for bad pizza, and I mean the kind that has "sausage" that tastes like black pepper-flavored hamburger.

What's your guilty pleasure(s)?

 

[rousseau]

These days not much. Most of what I eat and enjoy is fresh, healthy food.

I am starting to up my ice cream game, but I don't know if that counts.

Utz cheese curls.

I like to mix a little bit of dark chocolate, whole wheat pretzels, dried fruit and almonds to snack on. This week my new obsession is yogurt covered dried cranberries. Unfortunately, everything but the nuts are high in sugar.

Cheese on everything. When you factor in what is otherwise my usually-fairly-Vegan diet, my inability to eschew le fromage starts to look like downright hypocrisy.

Boiled peanuts

I love peanuts. I love peanut butter. I like peanut butter flavored stuff. Nothing prepared me for boiled peanuts. It's like this guy...

Used me in a peanut porn production, mouth raped me, and came down my throat.

That shit had the dual honor of being the most disgusting flavor/texture combination I have ever had the displeasure of putting in any orifice.

I remember traveling through the south, seeing signs for boiled peanuts everywhere. Y'all some sick mother fuckers, and that's coming from a guy that eats blood sausage.

Utz cheese curls.

My favorite sushi place has a "volcano roll" that includes spicy cheese puffs on top. I really love the absurdity of it. Cheese and seafood are supposed to be a big no-no combination, so surely the same sort of hot cheesy puffs one might find at a gas station should be horrible on gourmet seafood like sushi, and yet the dish works.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Well damn. I also like fried gizzards.

I'm not sure why that would be a guilty pleasure.

Personally, I feel guilty about the fact that I'm so unreasonably squeamish about offal. My European ancestors used every part of an animal when they killed it, and my Japanese ancestors eat all kinds of fish guts. It's a more responsible thing to do with an animal that was killed to be eaten.

I do not like anything that can be termed as 'not guilty'.

 

[DolphinDynasty]

Anything with chocolate and/or caramel, tiramisu, and if I can still get ahold of decent high grade high cacoa chocolate shavings I'll make reg milk hot cocoa with whipped cream on top, because yes, please.

But I'm a fat that is honest about loving food, and also honest that sometimes it's also boredom and sometimes just taste. Not that veggies, salad and fruit are bad, cuz I can do a lot with blueberries, strawberries, and my own version of honey wheat bread made with an extra tablespoon of sugar and orange blossom honey.

Now off to my kit kats, because chocolate.

My weakness is a barbecue joint where I get an oversized sliced brisket plate. I am supposed to be dieting, but from time to time I have to pig out on barbecued brisket. And a beer.

Calling it "culinary" is a stretch, but White Castle.

I'm old enough to remember when a White Castle (burger...we just called it a 'White Castle') was 18 cents each.

I hear you. Cheese makes all my joints loosen off, and grate when I move. You'd think that would be a disincentive. But about every six months ...

I don't remember White Castles ever being 18 cents, but I'm quite fond of them myself. If I get food cravings after midnight, I will almost certainly end up buying a sack of sliders with jalapeno cheese.

I like turkey and chicken from Dickey's Barbecue.
