Chili-cheese fries.
Hard to choose, but probably chicken-fried steak with an ungodly amount of gravy.
I have it once a year.
Poutine.
apple cobbler a la mode.
I can’t resist the stuff. I just can’t.
Which, of course, goes down really well after a hard day of cutting down trees, eating your lunch and going to the lavat’ry. Especially nice after a round of shopping on Wednesday afternoons.
Me, I’m partial to Fatburger’s sausage and egg breakfast sandwich. With cheese. And mayo.
I’m a lumberjack and I’m OK…
Back in my non-diabetic days, I used to make a mean apple cobbler (sometimes peach)
Tried it with sugar substitute but it wasn’t the same.
Most times I would say:
bacon with cream cheese dipped in nacho cheese dip
or
potted meat with cream cheese and buttered popcorn
But, when I was pregnant, it was sushi. You really shouldn’t have sushi when pregnant and even worse, I was diabetic and the rice really did a number on my blood sugar–far worse than one would expect that that quantity of grain. I was good and only had the lobster tempura sushi. No raw tuna that I craved. Still my BS went too high.
The thing that I ate that proved worst for me was a salad with blue cheese dressing. I had food poisoning from that.
Unhealthy and expensive, but simply irresistible.
All right, I am reporting this post. Bringing up low-salt spinach in a thread dedicated to food that is bad for you? How could you?
Freshly fried chicharrones, crispy but not crunchy with a lot good fat on them. Robertos in Las Cruces, NM used to cook them perfecty and serve them with refried beans on a burritio.
3 things -
Outback’s Bloomin’ Onion - 1700 calories and 116 grams of fat
Qdoba’s “the works” nachos - 1440 calories and 77 grams of fat
Au Bon Pain’s Cranberry Walnut Muffin (which I ate every work day morning for 3 years) - 560 calories, 30 grams of fat
I can give you a loooong list (I have a pretty poor diet, as an unfortunate casualty of having a busy, fairly stressful work life that makes you crave fast, easy, fattening and/or sweet foods)
Steak Bagel- At McDonald’s. Some dopers said the egg and bacon bagel was their vice, another mentioned the sausage McMuffin. But I don’t think they come close to the Steak Bagel. Now, this being McDonald’s, you gotta understand that what they put in there isn’t quite steak, but something else, and like cigarettes, is something vile and nasty the first time you try it, and before you know it you just…cant…quit! Its like they take a meat patty, dehydrate it into a withered hockey puck-shaped dealie, then rehydrate it with grease. That’s the only way I can describe it because the contents are the saltiest, greasiest thing I have ever tasted. And I eat them almost every morning before work [heart spasms]
Chicken-Fried Steak- Take a steak, batter it and deep fry it. Now douse it in white gravy and put it on a bed of hash browns. This is another vice of mine. I jokingly told my girlfriend that when I die I want her to bury me with a peice of chicken-fried steak in my mouth, so I could get one last bite.
In Dante’s hell, I’m the exasperated guy running through the city of Dis, going to each diner and finding to my horror that each one has just ran out of Chicken-fried steak [but plenty of liver and onions!] :eek:
Vegetarian checking in:
Deep fried cheese ravioli, or deep fried cheese wontons with sweet-and-sour sauce.
Deep fried ice cream–take very frozen ice cream scoops, dip them in batter, and deep fry. Top with real whipped cream. MMMMMMMMMMM…
Oh, I absolutely LOVE proscuitto!
More favorites from me:
Cheesecake
Fried mozzarella sticks
Onion rings / Bloomin’ Onion (preferably with a spicy, creamy dip)
Genoa salami
Italian sausage sandwiches with fried onions and peppers
Tres leches
Fried chicken (KFC or Popeye’s, with biscuits)
Ice cream or shakes of any kind
Donuts (I’m a sucker for Krispy Kreme, glazed or filled)
Chicken parmesan with pasta and garlic bread
Scrapple
Pork hearts, livers, snouts, and lard. All pressed together, spiced heavily, and fried.
Flamin’ Hot Cheetos - mmmmmmmmm . . . . . . . .
Mmm, good call, especially with some creamy onion or ranch dip!
Alcohol is way out in front of anything else, because I have pretty good eating habits.
One of my favorite things to eat is a meatball sub.
I’ve been craving a hot dog for about 3 months but I don’t want to buy a whole package. i’m planning a trip to “Lenny’s Delicatessen” down on Corn Beef Row, where they serve you a big hot dog rolled up in a piece of fried bologna. It’s pretty friggin’ awesome.
Hostess products, preferably cupcakes, Twinkies, or Suzy Q’s. Man, I love me some Hostess.
What, no mention of a good old fashioned Donner Kebab with Chilli Sauce yet? Can only be consumed when drunk.
