Favorite Junk Foods
My friend Mary is going to England this fall, and while I am insanely jealous of her, it started me thinking about what I miss most about England. I used to live there from 1984-1986 and some of my favorite junk foods were Cadbury’s chocolate and Hob Nobs. Hob Nobs are a delicious cookie, a bit like oatmeal cookies, and there are some wonderful ones dipped in chocolate.
But my favorite Cadbury’s chocolate bar was called a Picnic bar. It’s been about 15 years since I’ve had one, but it was chocolate, peanuts, raisins, wafer, and caramel, if I remember correctly. Oh, God. It was Nirvana. 
When I get another chance to visit the UK, I am STOCKING UP on Picnic bars.
Which leads me to my other junk food loves. I adore BBQ chips, tortilla chips with Nacho cheese sauce, popcorn dripping with butter, peanut M&Ms, and Twizzlers. My beverage of choice is Dr. Pepper.
What’s your favorite junk food?:hungry:

I LOVE English Mars bars! Here at home I’d have to say Heath bars or Reese’s.

My favourite chocolate bar is Big Turk or the new extra chewy Mr. Bigs. And I love Wurthers, both chewy or hard. Yum!

Eewwweee you lost me with the raisins and the nuts. Blech!
I love any kind of strawberry flavored candy, and my biggest weakness is a York Peppermint Patty.

When I went to England, I devoured the Cadbury chocolate, as well. Oh, that stuff was GOOD.
My weaknesses now…Diet Pepsi, M&M’s, Chocolate Stars, Cadbury Mini Eggs during Easter, Doritos (on occasion), and chocolate chip cookies warm from the oven.

Ooh, I like the Symphony bars with toffee, too! And peanut BUTTER M&Ms. And Skors.
Any wonder I gained 10 pounds this summer?
Cindy Says:
I have so many favourites. My new favourite chip is Honey and Roasted Garlic. Cashew Caramel Toffee Crunch Ice Cream. Love Twizzlers. Nacho flavoured popcorn. Pepsi is my drink of choice. And when it comes to Pepperment Patties I prefer the alcholic variety instead of the chocolate bar.
