    When it comes to ice cream, we have a little ice cream place that has the best maple nut in the world! (at least in my world.) I can't wait for it to open every spring.

    Strawberry ice cream with big chunks of strawberries is my all time favorite, with Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia my second. Only ice cream I don't likeare ones with mint in them. That said, I have to admit I don't buy ice cream too often because I can't stop eating it - love it when it is nice and soft and so spoonable. May in Jersey

    Okay, you're going to think I'm nuts and possibly be grossed out. Has anyone ever had bacon grease on their popcorn? When growing up 65 years ago on the farm of course the bacon grease was saved and potatoes etc. fried in it. Also at times we had it on popcorn. I still love the flavor but know it is a very unhealthy thing to do so I either don't buy bacon or buy the ready cooked bacon or immediately dump it on something for my outdoor cats to eat. Just wondered if I was the only one who had ever had this.

    My grandpa never put it on popcorn but he used to spoon bacon grease onto his plate and eat it with a spoon. My MIL always saved bacon grease and used it to fry eggs in for the flavor.

    Dark chocolate (Valrhona manjari in particular) and really tart lemon curd. Um, not together.

    I am not grossed out; we did the same thing, and it was GOOD!. I guess it wasn't too healthy for a person, but if it tastes goo, spit it out.

So I can eat peanuts and m&m's as long as I don't pig out on them!!

    If I had to pick one favorite thing I would have to say my homemade hot fudge pudding cake is to die for!

    I hate peanut butter too- and ice cream and hot dogs. Not fond of a lot of foods though...

    my favorite food is mashed potatoes and gravy. and that's why I look like I ate too many. But I love veggies, especially steamed and frozen peas right from the bag.

    I like popcorn- it's my "stress relief" food at the office- I eat a 100 calorie pack in the afternoon.

    but- give me a Pepsi or Dr. Pepper and I'm like a lush! It goes down smoothhhhhh. (and I don't like beer)
