My guilty pleasures seem to change here and there. I don't think I ever stick to one for very long. However, I started my most recent guilty pleasure while in Myrtle Beach because of my wonderful lil' sis! I took just one handful and have been absolutely HOOKED ever since. Seriously, I can't get enough. All the flavors of sweet and salty go together just so! Who ever would have thought I would be "hooked" on a Walmart brand product? There is a downside to this pleasure though- it is NOT organic...BUT it's just so gosh darn good that I don't even care about the whole organic thing, and I can't help but eat it ALL day long!
Okay, okay...are you at all intrigued yet? Drum roll please... Great Value Indulgent Trail Mix! It is a mixture of peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, cashews, almonds, cranberries, peanuts, white chocolate chips, and golden raisins (which I pick out and throw away because I HATE raisins)! Even though I have to throw out the raisins it is still such a delicious snack. Unfortunately it is not a healthy snack - especially when one is eating it in the quantities that I am! But at this point I don't care about the fact that it is more than likely tons of extra calories I don't need to put in to my body! I look at it this way....my classroom is so far away from everything I have to walk so much throughout the day that this makes up for all the extra calories in my guilty indulgence! Right? Well, that's what I am thinking right now and so be it until I move on to my next pleasure! For now I am keeping a BIG bag of it on my desk and when I need or want it I'll just dig right in without a second thought...Until I gain ten pounds!
Anyhow, next time you are in Walmart give it a try! They actually have a bunch of different trail mixes but I think this one takes the cake! Happy Snacking!
That is so funny....basically trail mix is your guilty pleasure....I don't know that has some "healthy" weaved in it if you ask me ;-)
ReplyDeleteMy new guilty pleasure that I will be indulging in a few minutes is freezeing yoplait whips....ow sweet jesus is it good, better than ice cream. The chocolate raspberry, is my current fav....I have not gotten the light ones yet so it is sort of not good for you, but as with yours there is some "healthy" weaved in there.
