Mine is always those crumb Hostess donut packs that you buy at 7/11. In fact, I asked my sister to send that instead of her chocolate package for Easter. They arrived smooshed to hell and more a flat pancake of crumbs rather than donut, but I wuv em!

Yummmmmm

When I was in college I used to love those Peggy Lawton chocolate chip cookies that came in a pack of three.  Became addicted to them. Wonder if they still make 'em?

oooooh, I love those! I found that the Kipling's Country Slices kind of have that flavour... though, not nearly as good, of course. You could try them as a sub...

Had my eye on those Dorset cereals with the nuts and fruit, and found a box on sale, so I scooped it up! I can't wait until breakfast!!!!!  ;D

Yeah, you can have them EVERY DAY if you like! (of if you live near a 7/11!)  :P

I'm dying a bit for the following:

Taco Bell
Tostinos Pizza Rolls (Surpreme)
Spaghetti-Os with Meatballs (which I should be dining on Sunday compliments of a returning to the UK friend)
Mexican TV dinners
30-cent frozen burritos

...

Anyone willing to guess what state I originated from? >__<

Oooo!  The little shop on campus (which was just outside the door to my dorm) used to sell them, and I'd pick up a package on the way to my early classes.  Good times.

I'm also obsessing about good English cheddar because it's much harder to come by here.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Please!!!  Stop saying Girl Scout Cookies people!!!  I'm pretending they don't exist! ;)

I've heard they have low-fat GSC ice cream.  Not sure the brand, but can't be hard to find in the bigger supermarkets in the US.

The only bad thing about some stuff being Low Fat is that they have increased the amount of sugar in it I learned that the hard way.  ::)  :P

Bad obsessions.
1.  Kit Kat Chunky Peanut Butter candy bar
2. Anything Galaxy chocolate
3. Carrot cake
4. Cheesecake

Good obsessions.
5. I have a orange, a banana, & a apple almost everyday
6. Weetabix Weetaflakes cereal I have it everyday for breakfast

I'm sure I have more bad obsessions but I'm tired so will probably add more to my list at another time. ;) ;D

Salad cream sandwiches have been a staple of my diet since I was 10, 25 years later they still the tastiest thing in the world.

Ooooohhhh, I guess Texas!!!   ;D  Well, they are definitely NOT 30 cents, but I have found Amy's organic bean and cheese frozen burritos at Sainsbury's before. It definitely helped the cravings a bit!  :P

Taj frozen parathas... currently 50p per pack of 6 in Asda.
I've bought loads of packs and am eating them for breakfast every day, spread with butter.

Did you happen to notice if they had Amy's organic anything else?  I love, love, love her mac&cheese!

only the cheese enchiladas... but sadly our local store no longer stocks either, so not sure if it was a one-off. look in the free from/organic frozen foods. good luck!!!

You'd be the winner! ;D

If we're ever on the other side of town near the Sainsburys, I'll have to investigate!  In the interim, we do a lot of faux Mexican nights - the Doritos-branded salsa isn't half horrid!
