Top 10 Junk Food Obsessions



I will be the second to tell you (my wife will be the first) that I am a sucker for junk food.  When it comes to junk food i am a simple man...  I like it sweet and sugary.  Christmas is one time of the year when I go absolutely nuts on an assortment of tasty treats, often leading to sleepless nights and tooth aches.  So in light of this candy eating season I have created my top ten list of junk food greatness...

10.  Skittles.  A safe choice for adults and children everywhere.  High in sugar and even higher in fruitiness, this timeless candy joins generations by helping everyone get a little taste of the rainbow.

9.  Reese's.  I have never eaten a Reese's and not had an overload of saliva in my mouth.  This mouth watering snack is perfect for that chocolate or peanut butter crave.  And seeing as how there is two in a pack, it is the perfect snack to share with a friend.

8.  Twizzlers.  The perfect name for the perfect snack.  Twizzlers is the type of candy that makes you say "just one more" then realize later that you destroyed an entire bag in 5 minutes.

7.  Almond Joy. This gift from God perfectly combines two of my favorite foods, coconuts and almonds.  Add in the delicious chocolate outer shell and this snack is sure to send your taste buds into orbit.

6.  Jolly Ranchers.  Whether its in sucker form, a jelly bean, a chewable, or regular hard candy it never lets me down.  A great snack to eat in class or church because of its ability to remain quiet makes this snack ideal for on the go circumstances.  Just throw a pack in your book bag or stuff a few in your pocket and you have mouth watering goodness all day long.

5.  Peanut butter cookies.  Anything with peanut butter is good, but these cookies take that peanut butter taste to a new level.  Perfect with a glass of milk and some conversation with family, this treat never disappoints.


4.  German Chocolate Cake.  I'm not a huge fan of chocolate cake but there is something about the icing that makes this cake great.  Add a glass of cold milk sit back and feel your stomach begin to grow.

3. Twix.  A cookie bar with both caramel and chocolate goodness.  This junk food is smooth and creamy as well as rich and chewy at the same time.

2.  Starbursts.  I usually hate the color pink, but not when it comes to starbursts.  With many different assortments of flavors to choose from there is a color for everyone.  Warning: Extremely Chewy!

And finally, the best junk food snack of all time...


1.  No Bake Cookies.  If God was hungry this is what he would breathe into existence.  With oats, peanut butter and cocoa this snack delivers every time.  Sit down with a gigantic glass of milk and enjoy an entire batch...don't worry, they are good for you too (ok I might have lied about that, but who cares, the taste is worth every pound.)

You may not agree with my list, but you have to agree with one thing...Junk food is good.
What is your favorite junk food?
