Potato chips and ice cream. I have 2 teens and a husband who don’t have a weight problem, so I make sure to buy flavors I don’t like (salt and vinegar chips and limón chips and chunky ice creams). It helps.

I'd say a really good fruit pie, but since I can't ever find any store locally that actually sells decent fruit pies, this has never actually been an issue. But if any of them did, I'd be sorely tempted to eat pie for breakfast, lunch, & dessert. I hate rolling out pie dough, so I almost never make pies. Yet I love a good fruit pie. So the rarity of having it just would add to how much I'd want to keep eating it if I had one. But I am a pie snob and pies other people consider all fine and dandy are gross to me. I know I’m lucky in that I don’t like ice cream, can’t stand chocolate and chips can sit in my house forever. But a good fruit pie? No control, I’ll make myself sick from eating too much. In particular, a good cherry pie is my absolute downfall. A local orchard makes an incredible cherry pie. I took one to a friends house last summer, but everyone ate the apple pie we also took (they wanted pie a la mode), which left me with a full cherry pie to take home (besides the piece I ate at the friends 😂). I haven’t even been back to the orchard for fear a cherry pie will jump into my cart

Nutella. I’ll eat it by the spoonful straight out of the jar. So I won’t buy it. My family knows to just buy me the little snack size with the pretzel sticks.

Another potato chip lover. I really, really had to stop with them. Darn it, but, they’re so good and easy and filling. I’m quite proud of myself for switching over to Triscuit. Although, I may or may not, lick the salt off of them - just like potato chips.

It isn't so much a buy, but if I make my version of the crispix mix recipe (my favorite version of chex mix) I can eat all of it at once. Like, all 8 cups... without ever feeling like maybe I should stop. Doesn't even help me to portion it out. I'll just eat multiple small bags til gone.

because you can’t control how much of it you’ll eat? I may have bought 2 boxes of caramel Crunch ‘n Munch at Walmart yesterday and eaten one whole box in about 5 hours. I then gave the second box to my son who has far more self control than I do! Please help me feel better by telling me you have a trigger too! Those Crunch and Munch boxes are small, probably only one serving in them. They need to make them much bigger for me to feel guilty about eating the whole box. Pringles are my downfall. Can’t stop eating them after I open a new canister.

If I am in an “I’ve been trying to lose weight my entire adult life and right now I do not care” mode, you can probably include everything mentioned above for me. Lately, I have absolutely no willpower and am eating like a person who can eat whatever they want without weight gain consequences. Ugh….

Anything dark chocolate. There was a "healthy" Kirkland snack that had nuts and grains and the bottom was coated with dark chocolate. Don't think it was healthy to eat as many of those as I was eating...

I'm not a huge one for store bought foods. But of the two things I make that I can't stop eating are Chex mix. I freaking love Chex mix and I make it on the regular. It's so bad for me. And my peanut butter chocolate chip cookies I have no self control at all.

Salt and vinegar chips. Kid#5 is probably just chips and pickles, based on what I ate during that pregnancy.

Baked goods Candy Potato Chips.
All are banned from the house. If I NEED a cookie or a cinnamon roll, I'll go to the bakery in town and get one. I would never bring a dozen home.

Absolutely. Potato chips. I don't eat them in huge quantities at one time, but want a serving at least 1-2 times a day and certainly think about them many times a day as well. It is like an addiction. That. And most specifically the Trader Joe's Carolina Gold potato chips. They have crack in them.

Baked lays potato chips. I just inhale the bag. Any other kind of potato chips are not an issue and can possibly go stale but baked lays are my weakness.

Don't think it was healthy to eat as many of those as I was eating... My Thrifty’s has dark chocolate brownie crisps. Think crunchy brownie and you have heaven. I will look today for some. They are Compliments brand.

I can’t buy or make anything sweet or have a bag of potato chips in the house. I cannot walk by a bag of chips and not grab a handful so I don’t buy them. I’m gluten free and saw Oreos Come in gluten free. Seriously had to walk fast by them so they wouldn’t jump in my cart. I’m that bad.
