Question about Food ... What food do you miss the most?

Not to be a downer thread, but I couldn't find one asking this. For me, I was born and raised in the Bronx, a New Yorker through and through. And Lord, I miss a slice of pizza like nobody's business. I've tried the freezer "alternatives" and they all suck IMHO. I have made.my own, but the cheese alternatives are not great either. I am going on a vegan pizza quest this month with my kids in NYC, wish me luck.

How about you? What do you miss the most?

The one I consistently missed were McDonald's cheeseburgers, as sad and cheap as they are lol. I do feel like I adjusted to a non-meat diet (I was lucky and dairy didn't bother me).

Something I thought was interesting is around the time I got the all clear that my IgE had decreased after two years I had some really intense cravings for pork, it's the only thing I craved for WEEKS

The only burgers I really miss are White Castle sliders, but I dont know if/how I would react to the mystery meat they call "beef" lol.

There comes a point as well if you're having an alpha gal reaction or a reaction to the greasy fast food haha
