Skinny Cow is good. The mint ones are my favorite, too. I only buy reduced-fat ice cream for home, though I occasionally eat the real stuff when I go out.
Oreos are evil!

Kind of like beer that way.
I finally read what the yummy Oreo filling is made of -- and haven't bought or eaten one since. This weekend, I was watching a documentary on veganism, and the people in it were overjoyed that Oreos are a vegan food. This was right after the lecture about what animal products do to your body. I'll stick with a regular shortbread cookie, thanks.
Pringles. On impulse I grabbed a can of Pringles. Had a couple a day, until Saturday when I just ate the damn can.
Agreed on Pringles! Whenever I buy them (and I haven't for some time), I tell myself they're to last a week minimum. As you can imagine, they're gone by the end of the evening.
Then again, one thing I have in common with most of my family is the urge to finish something once it's opened, no matter how ill-advised. Goodies don't last long around us.
I have actually lost my sweet tooth. I no longer crave sugary things like cookies, brownies, cakes, etc. I used to love it all. Now? Meh. I can sit in front of an entire buffet of sugary goodness and not eat a single thing. I also stopped keeping any "junk food" in the house a long time ago. The closest thing that I allow myself to eat is some rice pudding, and I mix in some fresh blueberries with it. So good!
That's probably very wise. I keep telling myself that I should take a similar stance, but I lack the self-discipline to do it. I have a tendency to comfort-eat; I feel down, I grab something unhealthy to munch on. I imagine I'll eventually make the transition, but probably only when I'm prompted to by doctors, whenever that might occur.
I read these words but they make no sense to me.
Tried those 100th anniversary ones, talk about being loaded with sugar. 
A few weeks ago, I bought some Oreos for the first time in years. They were Double Stuff. I only get Double Stuff. Not enough icing in the regular ones. I felt a little sick after eating four, but managed to finish the bag within 2 or 3 days anyway. I had 4 at a time, once or twice a day, dipped in milk.
I got some of those a few years ago after reading a post here. I liked 'em.
Trust me, a few years ago I probably would have taken a much different stance on sugary goodness. I don't know what happened! I just don't crave sweets or really care about them anymore!
I don't have much of a sweet tooth, and can bypass Oreos, but a packet of McVitie's chocolate digestive biscuits has a very short lifespan in my presence. This is why I hardly ever buy them, and when I do I take two and purposely leave the packet where the kids can see it. By the time I venture back into the kitchen there are a few crumbs left if I'm lucky. I do the same the few times I cave in and buy Nutella. Behold my awesome parenting skills. 
Savoury foods are the death of me. I can eat pasta or pierogies until I explode.

My mom loves those cookies and creme bars that they make.
^ That's what I usually end up getting if I'm craving some, but that's not too often. Tastes the same, but not as good a value.
I like the caramel ones and the dark chocolate ones. Otherwise, meh..
I haven't eaten one in at least two years though. My temptations are anything with chillie in it and alcohol. I really have no sweet tooth, give me some expensive cheese any day.
