What are some foods that no matter how bad they are, or how bad people say they are, for you; you just cannot stop eating them?
 
Pizza. I'm sure that won't be a unique answer but it's the one thing that I always crave. I've cut back a lot since my younger years and I often have my wife make healthier pizzas for me at home. Yet a few times a year I must and will pillage a pizza buffet.
 
French Fries. You really have to **** up a fry for me not to want to eat it. And apparently according to my parents, I was an incredibly picky eater as a baby, to the point that they thought I wasn't able to eat properly to the point that they took me to a specialist to get checked out. On the way, they stopped at a McDonald's to eat and tried feeding me some slightly mushed fries and I ate them right up. The specialist couldn't find anything wrong with me and when they told told him about the fries he was like, "Well, then give him fries!" I've been eating them ever since I can remember.

Sometimes I wonder how I managed to not grow up heavy as a kid.
 
Deep fried chicken. I'm a picky eater but I always loved deep fried chicken.
 
Pepsi, if that counts.

To be honest while there are foods you shouldn't eat on a regular basis, you don't ever have to give up any food completely. Everything in moderation.
 
everything. i love all food no matter how bad it is for me.

speaking of which, the mcrib is back in the US on nov 2nd for 6 weeks only.
 
Coca-Cola. Oh God, I am so addicted to it. I try to keep Diet Dr. Pepper in the house, which isn't good for me either, but at least saves a few calories... if regular Coke is around, I just keep drinking it with everything until it's gone. I feel like Coke makes everything I eat taste better. It's ridiculous. I would love to break my soda habit but have been unsuccessful in my many attempts so far.

Also, I'm not sure if I could survive without pizza.
 
Diet soda (particularly the Mountain Dew variety,) gummy anything and chicken fingers. My GOD do I love chicken fingers.
 
Bagels and general tso's chicken. I'm Mr. healthy with my 6x a week workouts, 6 meals a day, fish oil, green tea, resveratrol, etc. But every sunday I must have myself a big bagel shop type sun dried tomato bagel 1/2 with cream cheese and 1/2 with butter. Then finish up the night with some general chicken, pork fried rice, egg roll, and a cherry coke zero.

My great great grandfather had one of the largest pharmacies in Atlanta in the late 1800s-1900s. In 1887, a man walked in and asked if he wanted to partner with him and sell this new beverage that had medicinal properties. Told him that it would change the way people felt when they drank it. My great great grandfather tasted it and told him no one would ever drink the stuff. The man was John Pemberton and his new concoction was coca cola.
 
Pizza. Chicken fingers. Cheese coneys. Pepsi.

Second that. I wish I could give up soft drinks, but they're my crack.
 
I gave up what I call "high-octane" sodas (loaded with sugar/HFCS) in favor of diet sodas. Now I can't give those up.

Oh my goodness, are you serious? How often does your family collectively facepalm thinking about what might have been?

Maybe it's for the better, anyway. I haven't yet decided whether Pemberton was a god among men or the actual devil.
 
Coke Zero or Pepsi Max. These are my vice.

Every time we watch Back to the Future, we don't think about buying a sports almanac or going back and winning the lottery. We want to go back and just slap him in the head.
 
Junk food. Pizzas, burgers. GOD, I LOVE THEM XD

I've managed to cut down to once a month now though. :)
 
Chocolate. Most specifically Oh Henry and Snickers.
 
nice fish and chips with a guinness cold beer.


I gave up alcohol but that sounds sooo good!


But if I had one vice, maybe the occasional microwave pizza burrito.
