For me, it's hot dog sausages, the "mechanically separated" ones. Possibly the worst type of processed meat you can eat, but I can get through six a week sometimes. With fried onions and tom sauce on Warburtons hot dog rolls, I can't resist them.

Pastries. Them round custardy flat ones with almonds and stripy icing.

Doughnuts and i am with you on the hot dogs. The half pound ones from Costco are fantastic for utterly rubbish food that tastes good

KFC.

Tastes great but makes me feel bloated and shit afterwards. In particular the hot wings and the thighs.

I hear you on the mechanically separated meats, but nowt beats a quality pork pie. I cannot drive past Birkenshaw without nipping into the butchers.

Or a coke with ice after a session of exercise where you're left dehydrated (swimming in my case but furious self-abuse is acceptable)

EDIT: I love these type of threads 🙂

Haribo, Pringles and festive bakes (luckily Greggs only makes the last ones for 6 weeks of the year...)

My only weakness is liquid food, most light coloured hoppy ales, i cannot resist.
In fact out later tonight to sample a few, Oakham Bishops Farewell, bloody nectar of the Gods.
How i hang on to this washboard stomach aged 51 is a mystery to me.

[url= http://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/pringles-hateful-processed-pseudo-crisps ]Usually, I would say Pringles[/url], but the last lot of BBQ ones I had tasted well weird*. So had to bin them.

Other than those, frozen microwave kebabs.

*Weirder than usual.

With the exception of wholemeal bread, we decided a while back to only purchase non processed foods where possible. It's a sad fact that costs about 150% more than before.

While I like that you have identified bread as processed I totally disagree that non processed food is more expensive.

Compare the cost of burgers with buying mince and making your own for example.

Pizza.

The holy trinity of bread, cheese and meat. Ready in 10 minutes with no faffing about. I eat far too many pizzas.

Cereal, I just love it. Any kind. Even the "healthy" ones. Porridge as well. As an ex fatty I can easily over eat just about anything but I seem to be the worst for it with cereal for some reason.

Well Mrs k decided we should go organic / chickens running around big fields etc at the same time so.... And seeing as we both work with 2 kids we do make stuff - with hem for their benefit normally - but can't do that all the time. We just today made together and ate together a homemade shepherds pie - yum.

Gooey chocolate brownie slice at work. Must be laced with crack, and has I reckon over 1000 calories a slice.

And kettle chips. They aren't allowed in the house anymore

My dad gave me a tub of celebrations on Wednesday, I've now stripped it back to the bare minimum, by which I mean I've left a few of the shit ones left that I cant bring myself to eat (ie milky ways and twixes).

All the above and, I suspect, below too. Except marmite, I'd rather lick a cows ringpiece.

Personal favourites include
Pringles
KFC
McDonald's breakfasts
Hartleys jelly, straight out the pack
Chicken super noodles
Fizzy pop
Breakfast sandwiches
Any meat/pastry combo
Haribo goldbears or cola bottles

Oddly, I have not been in a McD/BurgerKing for ages. Even kebabs have dropped off.

No particular reason.

Surprised we have got this far with no mention of a lamb bhuna and peshwari naan.

I am pretty much bribe-able by bacon rolls.

I can't believe no-one's admitted to Big Macs

Cuz they naazzty.

I get hooge fresh chargrilled burgers on massive toasted sesame buns from local chippy. Topped with perfectly square processed cheese slices, fresh salad and an octarine-coloured sauce that tastes of mayo, dill and other heavenly stuff

Mc Ds is to burgers like Walls is to sausage rolls - ie is normally possible to get something equally unhealthy yet tastes 1000% better and usually for less money.

Don't get me wrong, love bad food way too much, including Ye Olde Oak hot dogs, scotch eggs, Pot Noodles, chocolate, cheap biscuits dipped in multiple cups of tea etc... But Mc Ds just never did it for me on the taste and texture, all the other questionable stuff.

My Mc D equivalent sin I suppose is being overly partial to D*min*es double pepperoni pizzas with extra sauce. No local independent pizzerias do it right. I've had better, way better, but it's like cheap alcohol to an alcoholic.

how the f does KFC feature in this thread?
it's like eating seasoned castrol gtx, and turns your 5h1t in to grease.
100% KFC chunder ratio here, but at least I aimed mine down the pan and, not down the window of KFC like my (female) colleague succeeded in doing.

for me... Pringles+Pizza

An awful lot of foods listed on this thread are far from bad foods

Anyway, for me, peanut M&Ms are a killer, I simply can't stop eating them until the bag is empty

I had to stop buying Tangfastics as I was eating that many I was effectively sandpapering my teeth away on the sugar coating.

Industrial sized bags of Doritos, peanut M&Ms, and most forms of milk chocolate are my vices.

chocolate and biscuits. Even worse when combined, like dark chocolate digestives cos I can pretend they're healthy as they're dark chocolate 😯
Bloody good job I'm also addicted to endurance sports!

Tesco's Raspberry trifle, I have one nearly every day. After the radiotherapy buggered up my taste buds last year, it's one of the few things I look forward to eating. Chocolate makes me feel sick even when I think about it now. 😥

Haribo even though I nearly always over indulge and feel ill afterwards.
Cake, chocolate, biscuits basically any food that's sweet.

those Stroopwafel things.
my local Budgens used to sell them and got more of my business (instead of Waitrose or Tesco) because they sold them.
they don't sell them anymore, and I'm glad about that, but I still wander the aisles looking for them and sobbing.
Thankfully I've not found them anywhere else, I know cafe Nero sell them but they're too expensive and I'm a miser before I'm a muncher.

I also went through a few years of not being able to go in the supermarket and not buy a pork pie or a sausage roll and eat it on the way home.

Chicken kebabs from Abduls in Fallowfield

Although I doubt there's anything bad in there

Marinated chicken, cabbage salad, chilli sauce, yoghurt sauce, naan bread

I like a burger too, but I make them myself

Dark chocolate

If it's Maccy D's it's the double cheeseburgers for me. I usually have three with a large fries and a milkshake.

There's a chippy near work that does a kebab chip butty. Doner "meat", chips, your choice of sauce (I usually go for curry) stuck in a bun. Bloody lovely and only £2.30.

Pork pie or sausage rolls. Gregg's are the sleaziest. Proper nasty.

McD sausage and egg muffin. Perfect nasty treat after the last night shift. Even better if I've managed to put in a quick ride after the last night shift. Almost makes you feel like you've earned it. 😳
