Ah, in this world, I mostly would eat … nothing. Maybe an occasional doughnut or steak, on a special occasion. How about drinking? I’d drink, even if I didn’t have to. Mojitos. Hello brave new world. ---

Chili fries. I used to love them as a teenager. Now I have to avoid them, as they give me heartburn. Oh, yeah, and dairy. Lots of dairy. I would finally be able to take my niece out to that fancy yogurt place she likes and not just sit there watching her enjoy a strawberry yogurt sundae with sprinkles while sipping my soda. Also, I could have a coffee drink at Starbucks without specifying “no whipped cream” or getting on the baristas’ case when they forget. It would be so wonderful, being able to just eat whatever is offered to me without having to worry about whether there is milk or cheese in it. ---

Chocolate chip pancakes, real maple syrup, French toast. Those amazing crullers from Lou’s. That amazing cruller French toast from Lou’s. The Reese’s Pieces sundae from Friendly’s for dessert every other day. ---

Oh, sausages. I forgot about the salt and fat laden deliciousness that is sausages. And french fries made from scratch with lard. And yam fries. And chocolate all day long. All the chocolate that there is, in every form imaginable. This thread is really getting to the root of my food issues. 🙂 ---

I’d most likely invent myself some sort of Shepherds Pie type thing that would have chopped steak and bacon and some sort of gooey cheese sauce topped with garlic and butter mashed potatoes and those french fried onion things on top. Oh, and a side dish that’s just Ritz crackers and deli chicken salad. And a jar of peanut butter. I already drink as much beer as I want, so then I think I’d be good. ---

Breakfast would be my mom’s bacon and egg sandwiches with real cheddar cheese and lots of mayo and pepper. Maybe I’d substitute shaved ham for bacon every once in awhile to kill the monotony. Oh, and alternate between thick white toast, bagels and English muffins. Good orange juice too, none of that concentrated crap. Lunch would be hamburgers from the takeout where I work covered in sweet relish and raw onions. Oh, and BACON. Maybe some big hotdogs every once in awhile, all dressed with cheese. A midday snack would be an everything bagel with full-fat cream cheese. Supper would be roast beef with my mom’s baked mashed potatoes with sour cream and cream cheese and garlic. _drool_ Pizza too, with spicy pepperoni, tomatoes, mushrooms and as much mozzarella cheese as you could fit on it. If I wasn’t in a meat mood, then a loaded vegetarian pizza with green olives, onions, peppers, tomatoes, etc. Dessert would be every kind of Vachon cake ever invented. Every once in awhile I would have Chinese food from the place over the border from my hometown, plus various kinds of fast foods. Since this is a land of fantasy, Wendy’s will bring back the Spicy Baconator and I’ll rejoice and eat those. Just so you don’t think I’m totally depraved, I would eat lots of crispy tart apples, barely ripe bananas, unripe pears, fresh cherries and honeydew melon. Oh, and all of this would be accompanied by copious amounts of Diet Coke. Wow, can you tell I’m hungry right now? ---

Olive Garden’s Fetuccini Alfredo loaded with garlicy shrimp, Ro-tel tomato and velveeta cheese caso dip with guacamole Dorito chips, Outback bloomin’ onion with dipping sauce, Porterhouse steak with actual fat on the edges, mashed potatoes and gravy, home fries made with bacon drippings, grilled lobster tail with plenty of melted butter, and just about everything everybody else said. Then I’d like to try being a “eat to live” person. ---

> [@Hazle\_Weatherfield](#): > > I was totally with you until I remembered that the OP specified that it “does not affect your body whatsoever.” Kind of takes all of the fun out of your suggestions, huh? Okay, I see that, but I think I may still drink beer with Chinese food just because it tastes so good. ---

> [@Hazle\_Weatherfield](#): > > Sure it’s expensive, but the deal in the OP was that it would not affect your BODY at all, expense wasn’t mentioned; it’s non-issue (although I did bring it up in an earlier post :p. ) Still, if I ate all of the sushi I wanted to, I would be HUGE! Yes, but the point was that she could **afford** to eat sushi if she didn’t have to waste money on other foods instead. As for me, I’d probably live on sweets, bread, beef, turkey, pork and chicken. And corn, carrots, and the yummier fruits. Some days I wouldn’t eat at all, not feeling like it. ---

Canadian cheese and dairy is good, but Wisconsin dairy deserves its reputation.
