What food do you love/adore?

What food do you love/adore?

Yes.

But seriously... I have an embarrassing weakness for Doritos.

Any time you hear a loud NOM NOM NOM coming from my apartment, it generally means I'm tucking into a bagful.

That's why I was alarmed to read that scholars have made a connection between the enjoyment of "crunch snacks", anger, and aggression:

Take a bag of Krunchers, which advertises it sells "no wimpy chips." First comes packaging designed to create a battle between bag and man, in which the latter drags his prey to the ground and then, straining and swearing, disembowels it with his bare hands. The chips inside are almost useless as food. Just fat and salt. It's their shrieks of terror that we crave. In his book The Secret House, science writer David Bodanis does a marvelous job of explaining how every aspect of this product is designed by food engineers to manipulate our instinctual aggression. The chips themselves are made too large to close your mouth around, so their high-frequency roar will curve around your face and reach your ears without any loss of volume. They're also packed with minuscule, air-filled "cells" that cause "shrapnels of flying starch and fat" to ricohet within the mouth and produce more of that lovely roar. Bodanis notes the essential violence of the experience when he writes that further chaos is ensured by "the broken fragments boomeranging at high speed inside the now-vacated cells, like the lethal metal slivers broken loose inside an enemy tank by the latest shoulder-fired optically- tracked missiles..."

Nom and nom! What is nom?

I love those flavored yogurt cups with fruit preserves at the bottom. The stuff’s loaded with sugar and about as healthy as a Hostess Twinkie, but damned if it isn’t tasty.

As for bagged snack foods, I prefer the original, plain Fritos. Fried cornmeal chips the way God intended them!

"Nom" is lolspeak for joyful eating. "NOM NOM NOM" (a parallel to Yum Yum Yum, but involving eating, not just describing the taste).

As for myself, I have a weakness for Funyuns.
Also, British candies and snacks just look awesome. There are some things there that I can't find here in the U.S. (like those appealing looking "Dip Dabs").

 

[Jetfire]

Skittles!

 

[Maestro]

Pizza, french fries, Cool Ranch Doritos, cocktail shrimp, sausage/cheese/crackers. All terrific nommish in large quantities.

No wonder I'm such a fatty!

 

[Amaris]

Oh, and when I can enjoy them, Totinos Pizza rolls (Combo).

 

[The Boy Who Cried Worf]

When I am on my deathbed I am going to eat brownies, not the fudgey kind, but the cakey kind you make with Ghirardelli chocolate powder. I am going to eat them until I feel like puking and then I hope I die right at that moment.

 

[sojourner]

Mmmmmm, barbecue pork. Then there was the glutinous meal where I ate a pair of three pound lobsters. Good times.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

When I go to New York: Any food served here.

At home: Subway sandwiches (I go there two or three times a week), Runzas, and...more Runzas.

A runner-up would be the corn off the cob that they serve at US Cellular Field in Chicago. That was some of the best food I have ever had at a ballgame.

[lurok]

Pistachios
Tortillas and dips (esp with margheritas)
Tempura

 

[captcalhoun]

vanilla ice cream and apple pie. rapture in a bowl.

banana and ice cream.

mince pie and custard.

 

[Timby]

Linguine aglio olio. I could eat that every single day and not get bored.

 

[sojourner]

^with pan seared shrimp.

Ooo, and fish and chips. I can eat my weight in really good, greasy, and crunchy beer battered fish.

That's easily fakeable. Get some sherbet, and a hard lollipop. lick the lollipop and dunk in the sherbet. voila!
OK, not quite. But pretty close.

Are their sites that sell UK food to the US market like there are the other way around?

 

[iBender]

Watching ITV or BBC on Pay Per View on Comcast, you get this advertised in America.

[ManOnTheWave]

I can consume disturbing amounts of sushi. Seriously, I've freaked out several taishos in the past with how much I can eat... Right in front of them.

 

[iBender]

Skittles!

Amen Brother!

 

[scotpens]

I can easily pig out Chinese takeout food — egg foo yung, subgum, moo goo gai pan, fried rice, egg rolls, fried shrimp, crispy noodles, all that Americanized Chinese stuff. And fortune cookies!

. . . Then there was the glutinous meal where I ate a pair of three pound lobsters. Good times.

Gluey, sticky lobster doesn’t sound terribly appetizing. I assume you meant “gluttonous”?
