Cadbury Creme Eggs. Those get me into trouble. I remember getting hooked way back in second grade. My best friend and I would walk all the way to the other end of town to the grocery store with the change we'd carefully save up for just for those eggs. Back then they were 45 cents each. Once we'd get back home we'd hide in my basement and carefully unwrap them to indulge. The fact that they were only available once a year made our want for them even greater (isn't it crazy how clearly I remember something candy-related from almost thirty years ago?)!

I can still get high on those things and not want to stop, in fact I bought a package when they first came out this year and immediately regretted it, as I ate all five of them in one day.
Also, anything with buttercream frosting. Heck, I can eat the frosting all by itself! When I was a kid I used to sneak canisters of it in my room.
Sugar in general is totally like a drug to me. I don't even keep pure sugar in the house because I'd be tempted to add it to everything. I think I've mentioned this already, but when I was growing up my mom once accidentally added too much salt to a pot of macaroni and cheese. In an attempt to counter it, she added some sugar hoping no one would notice. My dad asked what she did differently because it was so much better, so from then on she always added sugar to it . . . as if it wasn't unhealthy enough already!

That's totally what I go for as well.

Which is why I now avoid the Easter aisles.
