I visited 4 years ago and it was still around... it''s supposed to be illegal so they disappear into the alleys when the cops come, but reappear as soon as they leave. Same thing w/ Taiwan.

My secret? good genes.

My mom still has a 26 inch waist after having 3 kids, and weighs 112lbs @ 5''5. Unfortunately, i''m a bit shorter than her, but i have leveled off at 104lbs. *whew*

I''m serious! In high school, my ex had a knife pulled on him when he went there at night... but luckily his juvenile delinquent brother went to jail with the guy''s buddy so it was all cool afterwards.

During the day it''s pretty safe.

 

[onedrop]

LOVE this thread! Dancing Fire...you are baaaaad.

1) French Fries - especially the waffle fries from Chic-fil-a! yum-my!

2) The Kung Pao chicken from my favorite chinese place.

3) I think someone already mentioned this - HOT Krispy Kremes. I went to college right up the street from one of the Krispy Kreme stores. So a hot dozen was an every other day thing.

4) Lump crab cakes (the real thing). I say real thing because I am from Maryland and we are experts at crab dishes. Have to add here *crabs*, but only in the summer time. That''s when vrab season is here.

5) And I can''t resist getting one of those sugary, greasy funnel cakes anytime I go to an amusment park or a baseball game.

 

[ForteKitty]

OOh, Ooh, i forgot one:

Hot Dogs wrapped in BACON!!! They''re sold at those street vendors outside ball games and clubs. Those things are probably disgusting and filthy, but they''re soOOOoooo good, and I''ve never gotten sick from eating it!

And McDonald''s Ice cream too. In fact, they taste great together.

fish balls (not testicles, but grounded fish meat)

FK, thank you for clarifying this! As I was reading it, I admit to thinking, "I didn't know fishes have balls."

Cheetos
Homemade fried chicken - skin required
Classic Coke, preferably with lots of ice (Oh God, this is an addiction of mine)
Chips/salsa/guacamole
Capt Crunch (original flavor only) with ice cold milk

Iceprincess, you must live near to one of the many, many L&L Drive Inns in the country. I recently read they are up to over 100 locations.

Let's face it, unless you've got ties to Hawaii, Spam Musubi and LocoMoco are not exactly household names across the mainland.

Spam Musubi rocks and PORK FAT RULES!

 

[Dancing Fire]

K-MOM
if you were chinese you would of known exactly what FK was talking about (fish balls) how can you possibly think they were .........now i'm ROTFL my ASSSS OFF. i can't type anymore,this is so FUNNY.

those H.K. pork blood porridge & fried bread stick....i'm drooling just thinking about it.

 

[diamondlil]

CHOCOLATE!!!! Specifically, dark chocolate with 70% cocoa -- the perfect proportion. One small square after dinner, and I''m in heaven!

DiamondLil

 

[valeria101]

Anything a Japanese restaurant might serve... perhaps not much "junk food" but definitely a weekness

Dark chocolate (peeping from behind laptop as I type) - anything over 70% cocoa. Any kind of bean is just fine, although I learned their tastes by hart in a decade of persistent endulgement. Fortunately, no one in the house approaches the bitter stuff, so it''s all mine !

 

[Diamonds4Me]

Uh oh -

McDonalds Fries
Sun Chips
Pistachios
Cashews
Peanut butter on apples...actually, peanut butter in general
Swiss Cheese
Tempura shrimp
Cream Cicles
Reese''s Peanut Butter Cups
Oo..I''m with Gary on the smoked salmon
Ramon Noodles of any kind
Corn Pops

Shell Fish...but I thought shell fish was good for you b/c of the omega 3 in them

Good thing I don''t eat these all the time

As far as meal type food that I eat and are bad for me:

Lamb (chops, rack of lamb, leg of lamb

) Oooh man..with the mint jelly

Duck
Sauteed onions, mushrooms, etc..
Cornish Hens glazed with appricot sauce
BBQ (I made homemade last night

)
Stuffed flounder
Stuffed salmon
Stuffed portabella mushrooms
Escargot

I''m sure I''ll think of more...

 

[lindsal]

Biggest #1 -- OREOS (can''t have them in the house or I will just eat and eat them.

Peanut butter.
Anything chocolate with peanut butter.
Dark Chocolate.

Buffalo Style Chicken - in wing form, tender form, or sandwich form.

Bryers mint choclocate chip ice cream.

This are the hardest to stay away from for me as I am fighting the battle of the bulge hoping to look fabulous on my wedding day. Crap. Now I want peanut butter.
