Food discoveries new to you

Well, the idea is still there. It's probably something you could make yourself with a bit of olive oil and parmesan, but I'm no cook so what do I know.

Oh sure... they're easy to make. But I do always pick up new stuff when I see it. Haven't seen the cheese wraps yet, but they look very interesting. That would be great for anyone eating low carb or doing keto!
 
This double chocolate kit-kat which I bought today.. haven't tried it yet

Mexican Street Corn Dip.
There's several recipes online. The one I had used canned fiesta corn, cheddar and cream cheese, and the key was Tanjin seasoning. It was at a holiday party. By the looks of it I wasn't sure but it was delicious!

When corn is in season grill some. Then shuck it for the dip. Tanjin on plain cream cheese:)

This makes me sad. I try to eat healthily these days. I know what's good for me, and what isn't. But the thing is, the foods I deny myself are my favorite foods. Like last week I got some BBQ chicken wings. Not new to me, but I had literally not had them in years. I remembered how good they were, and I ate some. Wow. Amazing. Lovely.

But they're back now on the verboten list. :(

Like my true favorite - pork chops. Today most are cut lean, with all the fat removed. But man, I love the pork chops of my youth, with fat throughout. Sure, they gradually kill you, but man........ sooooo good.

I see the calories in those Cheese Wraps is 640 per pack. I'd have to leave those on the shelf. On the other hand, at 640 calories, I don't doubt they taste amazing.

I had a couple of the cheese wraps today. The filling was some ham and egg in each and avocado and hash browns. It was good for sure, but I never really looked at the calories. Thanks for the heads up. Drat, I guess I'd better go get on the elliptical and work it off.

Too bad they can't invent a calorie -free fat flavoring we could just pour over our foods. I bet it would be a gold mine.

If it tastes good, and especially if it tastes REALLY GOOD, then one can assume it's bad for you. :D

Fat improves the taste. I was brought up enjoying fat in my food. I can't say I don't like it, because I love it. It's not good for me, and I also know that. I don't say that with any joy. Quite the opposite. But for me, weirdly, the clue is - if it tastes amazing, it's probably bad for me. :(

Sounds like what you need is a REALLY GOOD hypnotist who can cement the belief in your mind that seagrass tastes exactly like a fat pork chop. If you find that guy, after you generously tip him, get his number for the rest of us.
 
Grapefruit! All ten pounds of it as SO will not eat my shopping mistake. Fresh squeezed not too bad
