Squeat Mungry Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Potato chips: Lay's Classic and Pringles. Sometimes I buy Rancho Gordo Tortilla Chips and make Fritos out of them. To use in Chilaquiles. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GordonCooks Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Akind to "junk" status Mrs Pauls's fish sticks Crunchy Cheetos Cape Cod chips Snyder's Honey Mustard pretzel pieces Wise Salt and Vinegar chips Slim Jims Tons of that weird colored sugar coated licorice that's cut into 1/2" tubes and tastes like chewy good and plentys. I buy it by the kilo in the bulk food section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daisy Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Spaghettios with a spoonful of cottage cheese. Tater Tots. Cheetos Crunchy. Gardetto's (original flavor only). Reese's peanut butter eggs (or Christmas trees, or hearts, or whatever shape). What is a Gardetto's please ? Potato chips. Tater Tots. Onion rings. Cocktail peanuts. Roasted peanuts. Pretzels of almost any description, but nothing involving cheese, sugar or chocolate, thank you. Ritz crackers, peanut butter optional but wonderful. After looking at this list I have decided I should install a salt lick in my kitchen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rancho_gordo Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 Yeah but if you knock all carbs off the list as verboten, you end up with nuts. Glorious nuts. Trader Joe's I do so love you. Nuts can be just as dangerous; a small quantity is good and good for you, but the fat and calories can add up horrifically. See here. I just read about a study (probably paid for by the almond council or something) that found that nuts are not equal. SOmething about the fat in nuts works in a different way and it's not so bad or something. How's that for science? But it feels so right and therefore I'm going to believe it.

Cathy Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Snyder's Honey Mustard pretzel pieces Yes. As a kid, I was mad for Chex Party Mix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Scream Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Starch+ Fat= GOOD Fried potatoes of pretty much every kind, even pringles and thick cut oily kettle chips Deep fried yucca Deep fried leftover pasta. 1/2 cup olive oil heated till it starts smoking than leftover pasta is dumped in Deep fried dough foods like pupusas, various Asian style dumplings, briks, pierogis, samosas, etc... Fresh bread with a slab of butter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liza Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 French fries. Anywhere, anytime. Though I will let the really dark, scorched ones alone, preferring the tender, freshly harvested crop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

joiei Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 My own personal fritos is the chili flavored fritos. Driving down the highway with a big ole 32 ozer from QuikTrip and one of those bags. Life is good then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Abbylovi Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Forgot to add microwaved Mallomars. I see a lot of tater tots. Are those a result of public school hot lunches? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Daisy Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 My tater tot addiction stems from my own private mommy serving them forth on a regular basis. She hated to cook, they were easy, we, picky eaters all, would all eat them..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
