    Banana flavoured stuff.

    Much nicer than bananas themselves...which are kinda disappointing.

    Why feel guilty about it?!

    Sure that takes all the good out of it :P

    Oh god I'm the exact opposite. I love bananas, but don't like banana "things"! Basically anything that tastes like ripe bananas. YOCK.

    I was ordering a pizza online recently and not concentrating picking banana instead of bacon, apologies but my god it was horrific. :eek:

    Super noodles.... Not the fancy Knorr ones, not even the Koka ones, no, the nasty 20c Aldi ones! Two packets, with loads of ketchup mixed through... Disgusting yet nyom at the same time.

    Snail caviar aka caviar d'escargots, I shit you not!

    A french relative who is a gourmet & amateur chef, introduced me to it & I'm addicted.

    I like the fruit, but prefer artificial banana flavour, like ice cream, milkshakes or those banana shaped foam sweets. They are more...intense.

    Tinned mandarin oranges in liquid sugar syrup

    I'm big with my food combos.
    I'd always eat stuff together.

    One of my favorites is a bowl of coco pops and a ham sandwich... eaten at the same time, with alternating bites / slurps.
    It's akin to cheese / wine / grapes / chutney in my palette.

    How about Banana Ice Cream? My Yonanas makes banana ice cream from frozen bananas.

    My guilty food would be anything I've eaten and then ran off without paying for.

    Lovely salty, subtle smoked mushroom like taste & slightly slimey, crunchy texture to it.

    Not a guilty pleasure because I feckin love these and don't feel a bit guilty when I eat them.

    Tayto cheese and onion crisps, slices of corned beef and a bit of brown sauce all sandwiched between two slices of buttered white bread.

    Fcukin savage.

    Mince in gravy mixed with spuds and peas on a slice of bread. Carb overload


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,495 ✭✭✭KatW4

    I refuse to feel any guilt re any food. Food is a simple pleasure.. Period. Reminds me of the man who saw me with a glorious waffle laden with chocolate, strawberries and cream and shouted " FAT AND SUGAR" so that everyone turned round. NB I had been given that treat and it took the shine off it. Food is grand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,802 ✭✭✭✭suicide_circus

    I think some people are misunderstanding what a guilty pleasure is


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    We eat insanely healthy in our house. I cook everything I can myself - never do anything ready meal or processed - grow or kill my own food where possible - even make my own breads and pasta and so forth.

    But once or twice a year myself and the girls will just go carnal on a bucket of KFC. Perhaps "guilt" is not the word for it as other people have pointed out - but I struggle to think of a better one for the mass of emotions and satisfaction associated with simply letting your standards go completely and throwing oneself into unhealthy greasy hedonistic fervour.

    Watching the girlfriends go carnal on an enormous greasy bucket of KFC using hands and no cutlery tends to be a 50:50 divide between horrific - and somehow powerfully erotic.

    Less guilt, more defiance.

    I think some people are forgetting not everyone likes sweets and chocolate;)

    Why didn't you tell hi F##k Off and mind his own business !! Did he pay for it ?? NO...

    Pizza and then some more pizza ..............


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    O Donnell's crisps, had a huge bag of cheese n onion the other day and there is a bag of hickory bbq in the house. Low carb, what, can't hear you over the crunching! :o

    If that's a guilty pleasure then I think you're being far too hard on yourself.

    Foi gras for me, I love that shít.

    The other night I had Sour Cream & Onion Pringles, with salsa and cream cheese ... lots of all of these.

    Comfort food is nice at the time, not worth the guilt though!

    Less guilt-ful comfort food is mammy dinners. Big roasts etc.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 194 ✭✭caille


    Carveries...I don't care what anyone says about them being under lamps for hours, being dried out, doused in gravy blah blah blah...when you get a good one, and you can get good ones, nothing beats a carvery for me.

    On the sweet side, is there anything as nice as a hot chocolate brownie with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream melting on top.

    On the junky savoury side, a big bag of Kettle sour and cream crisps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 414 ✭✭kettlehead


    Crisp sambos.
