Folks, this is a plea for help. I'm talking about jellybeans. I need an intervention. I picked up a 3-pound container of jellybeans when I was shopping at Bed, Bath & Beyond the other day... I thought, "hey, I'll leave this on my desk for other people to enjoy." There were probably 1,000 jellybeans in this container. I think in the past week I've eaten about 900... hang on...

chomp chomp chomp

930 of them. And what annoys me is that the red ones could be cherry OR cinnamon. The yellow ones could be lemon OR pineapple OR, I think, pear. Some of the black ones seem decidedly grape-flavored. Well, there's only about 50... wait...

chomp chomp chomp

30 left, so... I guess... um...

chomp chomp BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHH!! chomp chomp

...never mind.

Whoa. My cheeks are sweating.

Favorite? Handfuls of chocolate chips and peanut butter chips (like you would use in baking) directly from the freezer. Initially, I put them in the freezer, thinking that if they were frozen, I wouldn't be able to much on them. Of course, I then discovered that they are fabulous frozen, with the added benefit that no one else in the house likes them frozen.

swato, for (Cella's) chocolate covered cherries, I take a toothpick and poke a ring of small holes around the top of the candy. After popping out the lid, I drink out the "sauce" from the inside. Then I use the toothpick to remove the cherry and finally I eat the outer chocolate shell. This takes up quite a bit of time, otherwise they would get popped in my mouth much too quickly.

ANY cookie with chocolate that finds its way into my house.
Anything with chocolate and nuts.
Any ice cream with chocolate, especially rocky road.
Almost anything chocolate: chocolate bars, brownies, blondies, chocolate covered nuts, chocolate dipped pretzels, snickers bars, reeses peanut butter cups, oreos, etc. will do the trick.

Uhm, excuse me...

Mary Janes. I can eat a whole bag (or two).

Fudge dipped mint Oreos. I like them frozen or not.

Clark bars. I'm always afraid they're going to stop making them, because you don't see them at every candy counter.

Oh, and Cadbury mini eggs at Easter.

ReallyTrying: that's the same way I found out Whoppers (the malted milk balls, not the burgers) are so damn good frozen!
but all time favorite junk food probably has to be Cheetos.

Pure Delite chocolat bars. only 1-4 carbs depending on the flavor. GNC has the best selection.

Before I counted carbs I had a horrible weakness for Graeter's black raspberry chip ice cream. Yummmmm. It is one of the perks of having moved to Cincinnati. Truly the best ice cream ever (even Oprah says so). If any of you are ice cream junkies, it is a must try. You can order it online.

It is worth the expense.

Brian, Hoffman's in spring lake heights has the best buttercrunch in the whole world. sometimes during the winter we drive down for a shake float and come home. Really.
