Name your non-vice personal addiction.

[Tommy Carcetti]

Me?

I've become rather addicted to olive oil. On pasta, on sandwiches, on salad, on bread, frying my eggs in--I have absolutely love the stuff. And I'll apply it extremely liberally.

Dare I say I could drink it straight from the bottle if I really wanted to. Of course, that would be silly and I would never actually do that...or would I?

[NoRethugFriends]

1. Castello brand creamy Havarti

[PJMcK]

2. Last year, during the lockdown, it was Klaussen Dill pickles

I ate jars of them.

Now, I'm over them.

[AKwannabe]

3. Wild Huckleberries

Only get them once per year but love em.

Otherwise they are vices.

[grumpyduck]

4. Fizzy water,

like just plain carbonated water. Keeps me hydrated, it's cheaper than Gatorade/etc, and more interesting than plain water.

[Raven]

5. DU.

[hlthe2b]

6. Homemade yogurt. I eat it and combine it in dishes 2 or more times a day...

I'm not Bulgarian, but here's hoping the long-life health impacts they see eating it consistently will transfer to some of us in the West.

[liberaltrucker]

7. Plain M&Ms

[CrispyQ]

8. Art supplies.

I have my faves that I use over & over, but I have a trove of new stuff I'll probably never use. I just can't resist a palette of watercolors or a set of glitter pens or a new set of brushes.

[Ocelot II]

13. Me, too! I love that stuff, even though I haven't used half of the materials I've bought.

[CrispyQ]

15. Seen on FB:

Buying art supplies & using art supplies are two different hobbies.

Glad I'm not alone!

9. Monster energy drinks. Been drinking several a day for a couple years.

I know that’s not good I rarely drink coffee nowadays though it seems like the verdict on coffee has changed the last few years and it’s supposed to be healthy in moderation. I really don’t drink enough water though.

[Luciferous]

20. My husband loves the sugar free ones.

They help him cut back on a severe soda addiction.

[jcgoldie]

10. Raw goats milk

When I dry the girls off January through March each year I go through horrible withdrawals and pasteurized store milk of any kind just fuels the depression.

[sinkingfeeling]

11. Fage 0% Greek yogurt.

[RFCalifornia]

12. Diet 7UP

[Bayard]

14. Anything chocolate

The closest I can get on this diet is sugarless choc peanut butter ice cream and hot choc.

Its painful. I'm afraid I'll completely lose it when the xmas cookies start showing up.

[Trueblue1968]

16. WHAT BRAND OF OLIVE OIL DO YOU LIKE ??????? Mine is just a dumb brand.

[Tommy Carcetti]

17. I think my wife gets Pompeian Extra Virgin.

I'm ashamed to say that I haven't yet developed a true pallet for the different brands. I'm sure there is. It's just all good for me at this point.

30. Olive Oil Club

https://oliveoillovers.com/pages/monthly-club

Kevin O'Leary of Shark Tank fame, collects olive oil. I've been very happy with California Olive Ranch brand that I can get at my local grocer. I also got a couple of bottles from Costco that were really nice.

[tanyev]

18. I only buy California Olive Ranch after reading the book Extra Virginity.

Apparently there’s a widespread problem in the industry (at least at the time he wrote the book) with even well-known brands mixing in inferior or even rancid oils. California Olive Ranch got high marks from him at the time. I haven’t revisited the issue since I read the book, probably should. Here’s a short article that summarizes the problem:

19. 'Seasonal' Terry's Chocolate Oranges!

[Luciferous]

21. We love those in my house! The dark chocolate ones

are even better 🙂

[elleng]

22. I think I liked the dark chocolate ones past years,

but my taste buds say NO this year, so awaiting delivery of 'originals,' having already eaten several.

[Luciferous]

24. We used to just get the regular ones but my

daughter picked up some of the dark chocolate ones for me this year. I find the older I get the less I like milk chocolate, it's just too sweet.

[Harker]

26. I had a German Christmas cake last year, but it was Stollen. n/t

[FSogol]

35. Oh, for Pete's cake.

[Harker]

36. Don't sugar-coat it...

[Luciferous]

23. Chips and dip, the kind made with sour cream

and onion soup mix. I only make it a couple times a year, but it never lasts more than a day because I love it so much. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?!) my kids also love it and usually steal some 🙂

[electric_blue68]

28. 😄My mom used to make the sour cream and onion soup mix dip

for Christmas, and New Year's.
It was a special treat, along with the spinach dip one.

[Harker]

25. Tea.

Loose leaf, no additives. Green, white, red, pu'er (sheng and shou), kukicha.

Also little bowls of peanut butter with Bonne Maman strawberry preserves.

[electric_blue68]

27. Dark Chocolate, Art and Craft Supplies, Sci Fi

[Skittles]

29. in December it is always these

[ironflange]

31. Diet Dr Pepper

And Diet A&W Root Beer.

[TexasBushwhacker]

33. Have you tried the ZERO versions?

I like them even better. They're made with a blend of aspartame (Equal) and acesulfame potassium (Ace K). I think they taste more like the real thing.

[ironflange]

34. Yes, I've tried it, didn't like it as much

[TexasBushwhacker]

37. At least we have options

I like Coke Zero way more than Diet Coke. Canada Dry Zero is good if you like Ginger Ale.

[ironflange]

38. Same here

[Mad_Dem_X]

32. Collecting dolls

Barbies, specifically. I have one entire room filled with them. But, I can stop any time!

[GReedDiamond]

39. Casa Bianca Pizza...

...Eagle Rock, CA. I must order their extra-large cheese pie about once a month.

Casa Bianca was featured in an episode of the VICE TV "Pizza Show."

The Casa Bianca feature starts around 22:05 minutes into the video.

And collecting Germs art, plus art by some others, as well.
