There are foods – and then there are addictions. There’s plain ol’ snacking and then there’s devouring. We all have weaknesses and days when something super sweet or superbly salty is all that will satisfy us. Here, our list of most nosh-worthy delights. And yes, we realize we haven’t included everything so feel free to share your faves — pizza binges, diet soda splurges, and other irresistible treats and indulgences.

* Dark Chocolate M&M’s. That’s right, we said DARK. Ever since M&M’s surfaced in this flavor, we’ve been in heaven. They’re teeny tiny – therefore easily downed by the handful — and completely delicious — a deadly combination. With these little suckers the trick is to avoid eating the entire bag (and we’re talking the 8 oz size here).

* Guacamole. Fresh ripe avocados take on an entirely new level of tastiness when mashed up with garlic, cilantro and tomatoes. Even non-avocado fans love this chunky stuff – spread it on bread, dip veggies in it, or just enjoy it straight up by the spoonful. And we’re not sure why the chips and guac combo is so unstoppable, but there’s a reason restaurants serve them by the basket!

* Popcorn. Sure, microwave popcorn is addictive but that movie theater stuff is what sends us over the edge. It must be freshly popped to make the cut. Dousing it with hot, melted butter just ups the ante. Give us an XXL tub slathered with oozy butter (or butter-like) topping and we’re in heaven.

* Rolos. We try to be good and always make the mistake of thinking that popping a single one may do the trick of satisfying a sweet tooth. Not a chance. The caramel center is so perfectly chewy and delish that 5-10 seems to be the minimum requirement. We often place a dish of these on our coffee table when guests are coming over (because the little gold nuggets look so pretty) and they magically disappear — within minutes.

* French Fries. An ill-tasting fry is hard to find, right? They’re also fun to eat. Everyone has their favorite method – traditionalists do straight ketchup, adventurers mix it up with ranch dressing or spicy mustard. For us, those time-tested buggers from McDonald’s still top our list. Full disclosure here: We kind of miss the Super Size. (For make-it-at-home goodness, devour a bag of Trader Joe’s frozen sweet potato fries.)

* PopChips. Maybe they call them PopChips — not because they’re really and truly popped — but because you can’t stop popping them in your mouth. Light, crispy and woops…all gone! Better than full-fat greasy potato chips in our book – healthier and every bit as tasty. We recommend the original flavor. (An honorary mention to Kettle Sea Salt & Freshly Ground Pepper chips.)

* Chocolate Chip Cookies. Anything “bite size” is dangerous and one store-bought cookie is never ever enough. While we love homemade, we go ga-ga for Health Valley Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies. They’re all natural and made with organic ingredients, so we don’t feel somewhat less guilty after polishing off one of those bags in less than thirty minutes.

* Ice Cream. The sweet and dreamy creamy texture makes most flavors irresistible, but Haagen-Dazs classics, Chocolate and Vanilla, take the crown. The chocolate is rich, rich and the vanilla tastes like true vanilla. (The strawberry, coffee, and dulce de leche are also insane!).

Has anyone ever heard of someone getting mouth sores that are white in color and are on the inside of my lips and under my tongue? I am a health 38yr old male who has never bewen sick a day in my life i dont smoke,drink or do drugs an im married an faithful so dont say its a v.d….thanks for any help have a great day

Answer
Could be anything from drinking too much, orange juice to thrush (fungal infection). Worst case scenario… it’s an early symptom of HIV infection as well. Just because YOU are married and faithful doesn’t mean your partner is. a doctor and get it checked.

Answer
Sounds like a canker sore everyone gets those. By the way… no one calls them venereal disease. It is now STI’s (sexually transmitted infections) or STD’s (sexually transmitted diseases).

Answer
It could be coxsackievirus or hand, foot and mouth disease. Sometimes there are flu like symptoms that accompany the whitish blisters that form in the mouth. This is extremely contagious and you need to visit your doctor immediately.

Answer
See the dentist, white patches are signs of various conditions i believe including oral cancer. Being you don’t smoke I’m assuming you don’t chew. May not be that crazy but obviously not normal.

Answer
Almost certainly, canker sores (aphthous ulcers). Fairly common to get multiple ulcers.
Most minor aphthae heal in 7-10 days with no scarring. Something like Orabase will cover these painful sores long enough to eat. Some have recommended lactobacillus or yogurt to help re-establish bacterial flora in the mouth. I haven’t seen much real research as to whether this actually works, just anecdotal.
