PMS Food…

Sorry if any dudes are reading this………..

I have this weird habit…

You see, there’s this one particular week each month where I get these cravings. You know what I’m talking about… right? I have to eat something salty, followed by a little something sweet. Or, I have to eat something sweet, followed by a little salt.

In high school, during this one particular week, I remember buying a bag of BBQ flavored CornNuts and a bag of M&M’s. I would eat a CornNut and an M&M at the same time. Sounds gross… but its not… trust me.

I’d like to say my taste has progressed over the years, but there’s still those days where a bag of CornNuts sounds perfect.

Now-a-days, during that one particular week, I like to stand at my kitchen counter, build a stack of saltines layered with globs of nutella, and eat it while reading my People magazine. It makes my taste buds happy :)

What’s your favorite salty-sweet combo? Or even better… what’s your strangest eating habit? Does it top my CornNut/M&M combo?

  1. i’m all for the nutella…but i don’t know if i could do saltines with it! i just eat it straight out of the jar :)

  2. I love pretzles in ice cream and actually the new pretzle m&ms are a perfect combo!

  3. That sounds kinda awesome actually. Although I’d probably do original cornnuts with m&ms, or even chocolate chips.

  4. Actually I LOVE sweet n’ salty combos! Chocolate covered pretzels are probably my favorite!

  5. Oooh, Nutella. Everything’s better with Nutella!

    Nutella should always win. I really loved the sweet + salty of the dark chocolate, pretzel, and candy corn bark I made this weekend. It was dangerous. Good thing it got eaten up at the party and the other batch was saved for the “boo” treats I have to do today.

  7. Haha…I like that combo ALL the time, not just during that *special* week. Sea-salted fudge is my ultimate weakness.

  8. Mo@MommyRD says:

    Favorite sweet and salty combo right now is dark chocolate caramels with sea salt. Oh.my.word!

  9. I used to alternate between a box of Cheez-its and a bag of chocolate chips with peanut butter!

  10. I would put Nutella on just about anything :)

    Mmmm,looks so good. Love your blog! I don’t have a weird combo just a ridiculous urge to eat chocolate all the time and on everything! This seems perfectly normal to me1

  12. Nothing too strange, but Fluff on a Ritz is to die for!

  13. I love strawberry preserves on saltines! I guess that is the fruity girl in me.

  14. Ashley says:

    Ha! Love sweet and salty! Salty, buttery popcorn + chocolate = heaven!!!

  15. I love chocolate covered pretzels! I always want more sweets during that time of the month ;)

    Haha! I JUST got done eating a slice of french baguette with some nutella on it, bc I was CRAVING it. Oh lordy, that stuff is dangerous!

  17. some would say that popcorn with nooch and stevia is gross. not to me. Slathered in coconut butter. Oh i am such a food blogger just reading that ingredient list LOL

  18. that looks AMAZING. a stack of saltines and nutella?! yes please!
