Love this post... Most of my weird eating preferences happened in my childhood, so please forgive the awful mix of prepackaged, really bad for you foods. :)

1. Lots of pepper on Velveeta shells-n-cheese.
2. Doritos or Lays potato chips ON a pb&j.
3. Those nasty American cheese singles tore up and wrapped around red grapes, in perfect proportion.

While I don't eat any of these on a regular basis/ever, posts like these make me want to bust out the old favs.

Jonagolds! Apples are all about texture for me, and these are perfection.

Hemp Hand Protector from the Body Shop, hands down. It is amazing... It took me a couple weeks to break the hand lotion application after every washing, but with this stuff, I'm now down to once in the morning and once at night!

Ok, first of all, candy corn... I'm laughing so hard to myself. I thought I was the only crazy one when it came to this! I wholeheartedly agree with several of the commenters - ONLY Brach's candy corn. Anything else is not acceptable. And for me, it's only the normal candy corn and pumpkins (mixed). No indian corn and definitely no mix with the bats and corn stalks and weird light brown things... That said, my love for candy corn lasts all of about 1 week, then I'm over it.

As far as trick-or-treatin' candy, my favs growing up were always reese's peanut butter cups (the half version... full size cup, only one though). We "rated" our candy into levels, and were big on the trading out the lower level candy for the sought after top level candies...

The worst candy? Mary janes and those horrible taffy like things wrapped in the solid black and orange wrappers... Bleck.

I agree... I am baffled by the "inspiring" headline. Sure, it's cool he mixed a few different paints together to get a nice shade of gray, but this whole space is pretty lackluster...

Wow... This is really interesting! It's a cooler, cheaper version of the body monitoring systems that I'm vaguely aware of.

I'd be extremely interested in a future posts on what you guys think if you can get a hold of one... I'm holding out on buying one now until there's some more feedback out in internet land. Definitely keeping my eye out for this!

This is a total winner in my book... I've been looking around for alternate spaghetti squash recipes, because the one I currently use just doesn't cut it for me. Plus, I'm a huge avocado fan, so those alone have my mouth watering! The addition of the fried egg sounds really intriguing... Can't wait to try this one soon!

If there is a hint of any kind of goo - white or yellow, I can't eat it! My eggs have to be "well done", completely cooked through with the yolk mixed in and the crusty brown bits!

Maybe this is why I never order eggs out... :)

Sure, I can make an egg and cheese biscuit at home quite easily... and every once in awhile, I do. However, gasp!, I still will treat myself to bonefide McDonald's version once in a blue moon because I will shamelessly admit, it just tastes better. I can't, and wouldn't want to, replicate that greasy and ridiculously scrumptious biscuit in my own kitchen, because well, it's just not healthy...

My dirty secret is out... ;)

Ahh... I grew up in Northern Michigan, and talking about morels always makes my mouth water! We would get pounds and pounds of them, and after we'd gorge ourselves in the Spring with fried fresh morels (battered in egg and flour, and lots of salt), we'd dry them for the upcoming months to throw in spaghetti sauces, lasagna and any other sauces. I particularly like them with tomato based sauces... However, I love the ideas above about the wild rice, soup and stuffing though! I'll have to keep it in mind for next morel season.
