Top five foods I wish weren’t making me fat.
1. Brie. I try to avoid it, but it’s so heavenly good, especially with No Knead Bread.
2. Wine. You mean this stuff has calories? And five ounces is a serving?
3. Super burritos. I do get “no cheese,” but it probably doesn’t counteract the guacamole and sour cream and carne asada.
4. Salmon. Yeah, I know it’s supposed to be the “good fat” and all, but not when you eat six to eight ounces at a time over a mound of rice on a weekly basis.
5. French fries. How can a vegetable be anything but good for me?
There are plenty of foods I avoid like real mayo or scones or premium ice cream or Snickers, but the foods in this list are staples that I don’t want to live without. Why must they be so delicious?

I’m currently in my “serious about not eating crap” phase, but your talk of french fries just pushed me over the edge.

Somehow, moderation just doesn’t happen when you’re eating good things like fries and rice. And wine. Gosh, I wish I had some wine…

I often wonder why celery can’t be fattening and chocolate fat free. It would be a vastly happier universe.
