Stupid Cravings- embarrassing!

AnnD926

So, I'm on my way into work this morning...a little late. I stop by the grocery store to pick up a couple Lean Cuisines or some other microwave splendor to eat for lunch. With lunch and receipt in hand, I race to my car to continue on my commute.

 

 About 5 minutes down the road I realize my lunch no longer seems appetizing to me and that I am really CRAVING (are you ready for this?).....

 

 

Chef Boyardee Beefaroni- yes the kind in the can you eat when you're 6.

 

So, I stop into the next grocery store and stock up on Spaghettios, Beefaroni, Ravioli, Spaghetti with Meatballs and all the preservative goodness that is Chef Boyardee.

 I make it into work 21 minutes behind (which is forgivable since I'm the boss) and here I sit at 10:35 am- in front of the computer, on The Bump, eating an entire can (in a bowl) of Beefaroni. 

 So now my question is....what will I have for lunch?

Hey, the baby is just practicing for all those lunches and dinners he/she will have when he/she is 6!!!

 Enjoy!!

There's nothing shameful about beefaroni! Heck DH and I every other week eat a can of Ravioli for dinner. It's a cheep way to cut the grocery bill and it tastes good! We buy Meijer Brand (Meijer is a Walmart type store, but supports more local farmers and such and is only in MI, OH, KY, IN), which seriously, everyone need's a Meijer! Their brand is so good, it's often better then the national brands.

I was planning on having a Smart Ones, but now I think I will go back to KFC because I had it yesterday and it really hit the spot!

BTW I ate nothing by Chef Boyardee Ravioli for supper for about 2 weeks straight.

I had Spaghetti-O's last week for lunch. My boss walked out of his office and asked who was eating Spaghetti-O's because he could smell them in his office.

The Chef Boyardee is not the shameful and embarrassing part (it was actually quite delicious)- it's the fact that I went out of my way to stop at another grocery store to get it.

I could have waited until after work, bought some and ate it at home, but instead it was like a "YOU MUST HAVE THIS NOW" type thing. Never happened before! That my friends...is too funny.

I love me some spaghettiO's even when I am not preggers. Heck, I eat them cold. I am gross, I know LOL.

If it makes you feel better, for dinner last night, I had 2 waffles and a cup of noodles, Shrimp flavor.-Pretty gross combo if you ask me.

I don't think chef boyardee is only for 6 year olds. I love beefaroni and mini ravoilis. i eat them all the time.

I have eaten though several cans of Spaghettios in the past few weeks - DH think it's hysterical that I'm eating "toddler food".

AnnD926

haha- love all the replies to this. I had no idea so many of you love Chef Boyardee! I seriously was not trying to offend anyone by calling it 6 year old food, I just haven't had it in that long!

 

Too weird to crave something that I rarely ever eat, yet hardly remember!

Yes!  I'm not the only one.  I've been craving spaghetti O's on a nightly basis around midnight, so I haven't eaten them yet.  But they sound soooo good! 

I also have been wanting the homemade baked mac-n-cheese.  Not the boxed kind, but the kind my grandma used to make for family gatherings when I was little.

THANK YOU!  Now I need me some Boyardee.  Effffff.....

i can't believe i'm not the only one!

this cracked me up...thank you   and it perfectly sums up how out of control we are when it comes to food these days.  but if the baby wants beefaroni, give that baby the closest can you can find
