What would you REALLY like to eat? Light-hearted

Cake.

Victoria sponge with jam, lemon drizzle, coffee cake with walnuts, chocolate cake.

Just any cake, really.

I don’t touch it because I am well aware of the cruelty involved, duck or goose.

I've never touched it either.

My mum always told me it was cruel when I was little, and I watched a video of the process of force feeding them a couple a months ago.

I would love 2 eggs chopped up with butter in a mug with thick white bread all served by my Nan . Of course all a nice dream .

Foie gras? Never.

When discussing foie gras with a French friend she asked "do you eat duck?"

Most foie gras is duck liver. That from geese is very expensive.

Interestingly of the women that I know of my age, those who are relatively thin, careful with what they eat and exercise regularly have all had severe illness and one or two have sadly died recently.

It does flo. I've never had a day like that. I'd never live with the guilt!

Kate1949, sounds perfect

Your self control over chocolate biscuits is impressive. I cannot stop at 1 (or 2)!

Oh thank you for sharing.
I'm not at all adventurous with food, so I never even know where to start with making those kinds of things.

I'll give them a go, I think.

MissAdventure they sure are I dry fry the mince in spices then I layer it on a baking sheet with the nachos and grated cheese combination of mozzarella and cheddar already grated from tesco and mild salsa pop it in the oven for 10/20 minutes 180° or until cheese has melted then add sour cream in dollops and smashed avocado and a bit more salsa soooo good to share sometimes I put olives on it depends on what you like. We have ours on a Saturday night as a sharing plate tasty.

I would start the day with eggs Benedict, and coffee. Lunch would start with a Campari, then 2 oz Beluga Caviar, a large crab salad (dark crab only), French bread with butter, Zabaglione and Floating Islands desserts. Dinner would be oysters followed by Lobster Thermador, asparagus, petit pois, new potatoes slathered in butter, followed by Eton Mess with wild strawberries and champagne. Great thread this!

Those nachos sound delicious!

Oooooh what can I say my appetite is not what it use to be and my taste buds are still in flux after chemo last year BUT it doesn't stop me trying.
Breakfast would be a cooked breakfast sausage, bacon, poached egg and black pudding and two cups of tea.
Lunch would be homemade soup of vegetables, leftover chicken and beans.
Dinner would be and here I'm conflicted Indian takeaway or Mexican 🤔 Mexican I think nachos covered in spiced minced beef, cheese, salsa, sour cream and avocado maybe ice-cream to follow. Tea, coffee and water during the day.

Esmay

Breakfast -
A grill to include bacon , black pudding , Cumberland sausage , mushrooms preferably cep and vine tomatoes . Wholemeal toast and butter .
Served with tea .
I occasionally have the above and did yesterday .
Mid morning -
An apricot pastry or a hazelnut gateau and coffee .
Lunch - lobster thermidor , asparagus and salad plus champagne and a triple brandy .
Followed by any of the many rich puddings , which I love maybe a homemade vanilla or pistachio ice cream with strawberries and or raspberries prepared the Italian way .
Afternoon tea -
Tea with thinly cut cucumber , smoked salmon and watercress sandwiches then , freshly baked plain scones with clotted cream and apricot jam .
Dinner -
A huge baked potato with sour cream , butter and chives and a very lean rare steak with an Italian style salad with lots of raw mushrooms .
A steamed pudding or crumble with custard .
More champagne and a triple brandy .

Evening snack - a good Stilton , Carrs water biscuits and port or a great French red wine .
.
Chocolates , of course .Those ones which encase a Brazil nut .
Either lunch or dinner could be replaced with a full roast preferably lamb.
In reality - coffee is like a laxative to me .
And as I age - so is dairy .
Just recently, my IBS is worse than ever and has prevented my going out .
Gone are the days when I ate six roast potatoes and three puddings at one sitting and weighed about 7st 9lbs and thought I was fat !
As for brandy : I can easily sink a triple !
Bring it on !

I love your choice, minus the brandy... but it would probably take me 3 days to eat that much...

All this food is so scrummy but I can't read anymore of this thread. I started weight watchers 4 weeks ago and this could lead me into temptation ( not that I need any help)!

I always want to eat whatever it is I cant have at the moment.

Way back in the 1980s before all the fussy eaters came out of the woodwork I was on a course in London. There were a couple of veggies and everything was done to cater for them. All the food and even the salad tasted kind of funny. A group of us orderd food in from the nearest McDonalds at lunch time and you should have seen their faces. They didnt even want to sit in the same room as people eating meat.

I have just had air fried chicken, new potatoes, carrots, mashed swede, cabbage, broccoli, cheese sauce and gravy. ( some of these were leftovers). Apart from preferring roast potatoes, I loved this meal.
I wish I had a chocolate pudding in the fridge, but I will make do with two squares of dark chocolate filled with hazel nuts.

Foie gras? Never.

Right now: chocolate pudding!

Breakfast would be crispy streaky bacon and over easy fried egg which I could dip the bacon in, with thick white toast buttered so I could see my teeth marks. Lunch would be a Macdonald chicken burger, yes I know it’s rubbish and I have about one a year. Dinner would be unlimited lobster and large prawns with a handsome young man at my shoulder to do the shelling, served with thrice fried chips and a mixed salad. Sticky toffee pudding with thick cream to follow if I could possibly manage it, but don’t think I could. No calories there at all.
