Awful food you love - Guilty pleasures galore

Maybe once every couple of months I'll get one of those Spicy Bite hot dogs at 7/11. I try not to think of the downer cows they are likely made of. I also like the inexpensive dry shitty lemon hand pies but I don't let myself get them because I'd get fat.

McDonald's was doing 2 McDoubles for $3 for a while there and I'm ashamed to say the absolute fucking value allowed me to justify eating those several times a month.
McDonald's where I live has that deal and it's a life saver if you want multiple burgers or McChickens for cheap. Fries and drinks too!
 
Tuna Noodle Casserole is one of those things I love that makes me seem utterly insane to others, but damn can hamburger helper make a good mix for that.
Oh man. My mother made the best damn white-trash tuna noodle casserole. Egg noodles. Cream of mushroom soup (I think). Tuna. Frozen peas or broccoli. A crust on top made of crushed Ritz crackers coated in butter. The best possible kind of "This could be almost healthy, except it's such trashy comfort food you eat it until you need a nap."
 
When I was a kid in the countryside my gran used to fry up animal organs, such as liver, with onions and brussel sprouts. I quite enjoy it, but everyone I've told about it seems to think that I've got no taste. One of my friends from the states remarked that I ate like a poor peasant with no electricity.

Blood sausage is quite good too.
 
For me it's the McDonalds Filet O Fish

I know its bottom feeding sucker fish and its deep fried in week old oil then smothered in crappy fake tartar sauce.

But damn, I can eat like 4 if I let myself.
 
Chocolate Yoo-hoo drinks, especially in the glass bottles.

I don't think it tastes great and I usually get sick after drinking one but for some reason I still occasionally get a horrible yearning to drink one.

Holy shit those things are waxy. No food has ever left such a weird film on the inside of my mouth.
I was unaware this dish got hate. All of the ingredients are canned, and it tastes pretty excellent. Its also healthy if you go the extra step and just add some cheap veggies.
 
mcdonalds hash browns, they are the only reason i still care about maccies breakfast these days and all i've heard about them is that they're apparently the worst compared to actual hash browns.
i did try other hash browns after hearing that, homemade, frozen, and from other restaurants, but none of them have accurately achieved that artery clogging taste that mcdonalds has perfected.
if they didn't limit them to their breakfast menu i'm pretty sure i'd be dead by now.

The issue is that at least in my area it’s inconsistent sometimes they cook them (not enough?) so they are soggy and mushy instead of crispy and firm. When done correctly they are so good.
 
pretty much everything i eat / drink, but special mention goes 2 frozen meals / microwave food

theyre not culinary masterpieces, but theyre easy & i also cant cook 4 shit so...

edit: oh, and subway 2. most ppl i know hate it & thinks its trash, but i just... like it 4 some reason, even tho it has a terrible reputation
 
Última edición:
Already mentioned : pink goo meat (hot dogs, sausage rolls etc)

Not mentioned:

garlic bread. 25p frozen and with inconsistent application of both garlic and bread....

10p crisps of the "corn snack" variety. Hello space raiders! Pickled onion flavour obviously!

Citric acid sugar coated sweets or as I call them the crack cocaine of sweets.

Bacon/chip (fries)/crisp (potato chip) sandwich. White bread - must be soft and plapy and not sourdough?!

KFC gravy. Basically salty melted plastic.
 
Those single serve microwave hamburgers you find in questionable neighborhood grocery stores. There’s also some kind of Jamaican beef patty thing in a crust like a hot pocket that hits the spot. Cheap beer usually leads to these decisions, also found in the same place.
