I Have Obsessive Food Habits

I have got to have some of the strangest eating habits. Craig makes fun of me, but I get it very honestly from both my mother and my father. I am truly blessed to just a good metabolism.
Currently on the menu? Fruit and peanut butter. Not together, just a spoon and a jar of PB. Don’t laugh, but I am averaging 2lbs of peanut butter a week. Alone. Not shared with Craig. he likes Jif and I fancy my Organic with seasalt, and no sugar. Okay I lied. I am over 2lbs a week, because when I run out, I raid his Jif.
I also love my fruit. I will eat a as many grapes as we have in one sitting. Mostly at night. Same with Cherries, and well, any other berry. When I have these food obsessions, I never get full. NEVER.
A few weeks back it was Everything Bagels and Cream Cheese. Kraft, makes Philadelphia Cream Cheese and they stopped making? or every store in the state of Indiana, stopped carrying my all time favorite, Salmon spread. So now I suffice myself with Vegetable and Chive and Onion.
Sometimes it is cereal. Sometimes it is soup. Once it went out for about 3 weeks, I was eating a salad topped with chili, and sour cream, twice a day every day. I will turn down dinner plans if I know that I want my “habit” food at the time.
But seriously, someone else has to be this obsessed? when I am over it, I don’t want it at all anymore. Then it will resurface, sometimes months or even years later. 
My mom had a 3-5 PayDay Bar habit. (sorry mom) not the small bars, the normal ones. she did this for months! First, I couldn’t afford that habit! but second, don’t the store people start to look at you crazy? lol And we aren’t large people, in fact, I fall under the average. But we all know those scales are kinda wacky anyways.
So are you an obsessive crazy food eater like me? What do eat tons of ? What cravings do you get that you just can’t say no to?

umm, you really should not have told me about redhots and peanuts. I love love love hot tamales.
love bagels and cream cheese, cream cheese is sort of a new found love of mine.
and cashews… my step dad always gets them from Fanny May, and they are so fresh and tasty!
Karissa,
I’m with you on the grapes and cherries! I go through lbs of them during the summer. And pineapple as well!
Holy cow that’s a lot of peanut butter! Totally love bagels and cream cheese–I cane eat it every day!

LOL! I have that problem with the 2.5 lb container of cashews from Costco. I eat until they’re gone – breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack. I think they last about two days tops. Pardon the pun, but I’m nuts over them and can’t seem to get enough!
No real obsession, but you will often find me with a jug of kefir. Häagen-Dazs Sticky Toffee Pudding is another fav and as a really bad treat I’ll drink a Pepsi.

For you peanut girls – perfect for fall, mix peanuts & redhots – so good
lol to the dove bar. love it!
I am so happy I am not alone. what is the deal with peanut butter. it is sooo delish. oh, I should have said that I have a very unhealthy addiction to Peanut butter M&M’s. If you haven’t had them yet, don’t. trust me.
and sugar babies. lol. but those aren’t nearly as obsessive as my fruit and PB. I literally ate 1 1/2lbs of grapes today. one sitting.
hmm, I love potato chips, I might have to try that with PB! sounds good Shelly.
I love apples with peanut butter on them and I too am addicted to peanut butter lol.

Organic peanut butter and Lays Natural potato chips with sea salt. Eaten together! The other food obsession is an organic apple eaten with raw peanuts, a bite of apple then a handful of peanuts. I have been doing this for several years, and still lost 57 lbs this past year!
I do it with breakfast. Ill have the same thing everyday for months and then one day Ill wake up and want something else and I wont touch the before food for months! Right now I am going strong 4 months with organic banana and a dove ice cream bar.
Thankfully my husband doesnt mind anymore and he knows the drill.
Also if I have a bad experience with a food, it is very likely I wont touch it or come near ir for at least a year.

Ocean Spray Dried Cranberries..CranRaisins. I’m obsessed with them. I buy a bag each week and usually eat it in 1-2 sittings. I can’t get enough of them and yes my husband & kids think I’m crazy. I’m just lucky they don’t like them so I can have them all to myself.
