Sugary cereals from my childhood especially Apple Jacks and Lucky Charms

Outback Steakhouse

So cheap for a steak, and yet it's always delicious.

Marshmallow Peeps. Sugary sugar in that sugar!

I worked too hard to get to the top of the food chain to eat anything less!

Do you get your vegetables in that you eat animals that eat vegetables?

Kraft Dinner (or I suppose "Mac and Cheese" since I've lived in the US for over 10 years now).

This story is a bit over the top sappy, but when I was about 9 years old our family dog was hit by a car and killed. My parents bought me some Kraft Dinner in the shape of Ninja Turtles to cheer me up, and now whenever I eat KD I think of that.

The most decadent thing I've ever eaten was double-fried in duck fat French fries at a hot dog joint. Holy crap, tasted amazing but felt so unhealthy.

Chicken shawarma. I absolutely love shawarma, but all my English friends tell me it's "drunk at 4am" food for them.

The McDonald's breakfast sandwiches, particularly the Sausage Egg Biscuit and Sausage McMuffin with Egg. I only eat McGriddles if I'm feeling really wicked.

The Doritos taco at Taco Bell. I like the original nacho cheese flavor better than ranch, but both are good.

Frozen corndogs (I cook them!). Easiest meal in the world to just toss into the microwave.

The Sourdough Jack at Jack in the Box. It's the only thing I'll eat there.

Pizza Hut. I quite like their crust sometimes. The other thing is that it's a close walk from my house. If only it was a Papa John's, I'd be so much happier.

Man, I forgot about this. I'm so used to the Burger King version that I don't like "real" onion rings. The only problem is that the onion aftertaste lingers forever. If I have some for lunch, I'll burp at 11p.m. and still taste it. Kinda gross, but still worth it.

Got me there, kinda. Every now and then, I'd order these (called American Dogs) at Japanese convenience stores. The mustard/ketchup packets are nifty too.

In the UK at least, every time I've had any Burger King food the aftertaste lingers forever, which is why I don't go there. But every year or so I manage to find a voucher that gives 50% off and then I forget, and it ruins the rest of my day (culinary-wise). OTOH, Hungry Jacks in Australia is perfectly fine

Not necessarily something I don't admit to, but was reminded that it was rather odd - I usually put a little butter on my steak instead of steak sauce. Apparently some people find that odd...
