What’s the worst thing you eat regularly?

Milk’s comment about ‘shopping the perimeter’ got me thinking. What’s the worst thing you eat on a regular basis?

For me it’s definitely deli meats. Highly processed, shit tons of sodium. I’ve been eating it most every day for lunch since I was 4.

A close second is probably white rice at maybe 3x per week. I used to eat no white rice, exclusively brown and not as often, then I found this Peruvian girl who thinks brown rice is the devil’s grub…

used to be sweets such as cakes and cookies and brownies, but since my diabetes diagnosis, I don't really put bad stuff in anymore. Probably too much of the ok stuff sometimes.

If white rice is considered bad, then yeah, white rice. Although for meals, it constitutes a relatively small volume.

I thought I'd get the innuendo out of the way before I said hot Italian sausage. Also, toffee ice cream.

I'm currently eating a foot-long Italian sandwich for lunch and I hate myself.

Somebody gave Mrs. Phibes a glass with 'I've had worse things in my mouth' written on it for her birthday. If the vicar ever visits, he's going to get it for his orange juice.

It's glycemic index is actually worse than raw cane sugar.

From a blood sugar perspective, it's actually worse than raw cane sugar.

But not brown rice? There's actually that much of a difference?

Glycemic index:

Brown rice: 55-68.
White rice: 72-90
Cane sugar 65

cookies, ice cream, cake

[Axtremus]

Ice cream, chocolate.

[Mik]

Reese’s Puffs. Which I am eating now with a banana and milk after a couple bottles of wine and a little bourbon.

All in all a very successful dinner party

[kluurs]

Bread. Limit to 1 or 2 slices. My spouse is a baker so i am forced to eat some of her creations. Donut once a week.

@jon-nyc I don’t know what your GF would think of this, but if you refrigerate cooked white rice for a while, then reheat or steam it, you significantly lower its glycemic index. I didn’t know this until recently.
My worst habit has to be my teaspoon of sugar in my 2 cups of coffee daily. That adds up over a lifetime.

One slightly over-toasted strawberry Pop-Tart.

[jon-nyc]

Last night’s dinner. This is still white rice even though she cooks it with cilantro to make it turn green.

[jon-nyc]

@blondie Good to know.

A Döner maybe once a month.
