Latest favorite is Sanders chocolates, but eating one — or two, or, three when i’m really bad — of these dark chocolate sea salt caramel feels much less sinful than calling Sanders chocolates ” junk food”! And, Beth, they’re made in the state you share with junk food addict (not!) Michael Moore in Clinton Township, Michigan. I bet their tours give free samples. The website is sanders candy.com but you can’t eat them virtually. 🙄

sanders is my favorite chocolate company, especially their hot fudge. i grew up with their birthday cakes, candies, and let’s not forget their hot fudge cream puff sundaes! now i’m craving one )

I might have guessed Sanders is your favorite. I didn’t know about their hot fudge cream puff sundaes and birthday cakes. Does Costco sell them, too?
LikeLiked by 1 person
the cakes are available at some groceries, not a costco member so i’m not sure. some of the stores reopened a few years back, and i haven’t seen the cream puffs ,but there’s always a chance. it’s basically a cream puff shell, filled with vanilla ice cream, and slathered with the hot fudge. an amazing combo

I don’t like junk food and pop.
My idea of food fun is homemade banana bread (no eggs) OR nachos that I make with whole grain rounds and lots of healthy toppings.

Every day is national junk food day here. I have my stash hidden in my room. Dark choc with almonds and sea salt or ginger for the really tough days. Right now it’s hint of lime tostitos or coconut milk frozen Popsicle’s. I need salt and cold right now. Heat in not my friend. Kit Kats or tootsie rolls when I’m nostalgic. I wish I could give up junk food but even a 12 step program couldn’t help that addiction. 😉
