What's the one food item you'd be devastated if you could never eat again? If you became allergic or it stopped existing or something like that.
Mine is Cheese.
I love cheese and I can pretty much eat me some cheese on just about anything and everything. If there was no more cheese in this world, I'd be so sad.
The meal I'd be hard up to give up...Pizza. I could eat pizza every single day and be quite content. Pizza Pizza Pizza!
What about you?

It would be really hard for me to give up sweet stuff, especially candy. I am a candy addict. My mother did not like to give us sweet things when we were little and I guess I am making up for that now.
I also love cheese. Cheese is a lot of fun to eat. I guess that is why I like Mexican food so much. I like pizza also.

Even if I don,t eat some every day, it would be hard for me to give up on chocolate. Every now and then I just need to eat some :P
Also I would never be able to give up on tuna. I eat it about 1-2 times a week :P I eat eat with pasta, in sandwich, salads, etc :P

Almost every day I eat potatoes. I cook, bake and fry potatoes in every way there is. I have so many potatoe recipes.
I would be very sad if I could not eat potatoes.
In early spring potatoes get expensive and I cut down on my consumption. Already cutting down my consumption of potatoes because of the price is uncomfortable for me.
I think potatoes keep me healthy.

I think potatoes are good for people, unless they do that carb thing, but do potatoes have carbs? I don't even know, I don't diet. Potatoes are good. I used to eat them a lot! I probably should more because that's something that's not too hard to cook for one person. I do baked potatoes and fries most often.

mmm.. I always get the polly-o twists from the grocery stores.... it's like mozzerella and chedder cheese. It's great! I live off that stuff. I seriously put cheese on everything and extra cheese on stuff that already has cheese.
though you know of course there are some cheeses i could do without like the smelly cheeses and swiss cheese. blech.

I'd have to say Chinese Food of any kind. As long as they still had at least ONE THING on their menu, I'd be happy. There's just something about Chinese Food that I love. If someone came out tomorrow and said there would be no more Chinese Food, I would cry. I might not ever eat again! LOL.
I've never had Chinese Food from China or from someone who was from China that was not making the food in a restaurant, and I have heard that "Real" Chinese Food is different from the version served in America, but I love the American version anyway. If anyone took that away from me, I would not be happy at all. Life would not be the same without Sesame Chicken, Chicken Fried Rice, Pork Fried Rice, Chicken Chow Mein, Chicken Lo Mein, etc. Especially the Chinese food with seafood involved... I LOVE seafood.
If they told me SHRIMP FRIED RICE had been outlawed, I would seriously want to move to another planet.
Chinese Food is my biggest weakness.

Mine would be Mayonnaise. I have mayonnaise with everything. I especially love it in spaghetti bolognese. Cheese would be a close second, followed by gravy. Yum..I drink gravy right outta the mug.

Huh, mayo? Interesting indeed. Oh, dang this food topic! I'm getting hungry.
But I must give KUDOS to mayo. I love Long John Silvers, and then dipping my chicken planks in mayo and then in my pile of "extra crispies".....*gobble gobble* Oh yessss, mayo can certainly save the day!

Now that's different. I think I know more people who hate mayo then like it! I'm not a big gravy fan, but we could definitely fight over the cheese. I just love cheese. I don't think I go a day without eating something with cheese on it!

Oh. Eggs. I don't think that's a choice that anyone else has said. Well the point wasn't really foods being healthy or not though, so it's ok if the food you don't want to give up is unhealthy. I actually eat eggs every day. It's more filling of a breakfast than cereal. I eat pizza once a week too at least.
luckily i'm not dying yet :)

Oh no! Just the thought of never having ice cream again brings tears to my eyes! LOL (ok a little dramatic) but I do LOVE ice cream!
If I could have one thing every single day and be quite content, my choice would be pizza too if I thought my innards would be happy too. So, with that said, I would have to switch and say I'd be content with tacos. :p
Yummy topic! I "heart" cheese too.

Chocolate! I love chocolate. A month rarely passes without me eating it at least once. I'd be devastated if I suddenly got allergic against it.

I have to admit that mine is cheese too, either that or chocolate. Believe me i have tried to give up the latter. But cheese is a pretty good thing to eat and i wouldn't like to go without pizza either! I love the pizza's from pizza hut, they taste amazing. I don't want to think about the cals but they are nice for a treat.

For me, it will have to be crabs - chilli or black pepper crabs. They are oh, so delicious, especially the ones that are sold in the seafood restaurants in my country. People from all over the world come to savour this dish, so you can imagine how good an experience it is for me everytime I get to eat it. In fact, I will be heading for the seafood restaurant in about 5 hours from now to devour some tantalising seafood there, including the crabs I have mentioned.

Ohhh you'd like the state of Maryland then! We're famous for Crabs. We have this Maryland made seasoning called "old bay" that goes well with anything but is most famous with crabs! No chilli or black pepper crabs though. If i ever go to singapore maybe I'll try them!

Siomai - a chinese dimsum. We are void to eat pork. And I find out the base ingredient of siomai was pork, prawns or shrimps - in which any of these are not allowed to be eaten.
