What say you, BTers?

My favorite junk food meal is definitely pizza. My favorite good meal is grilled chicken and brown rice.

I'm going to guess that pizza will be the overwhelming majority favorite here...ice cream might stand a chance.

Junk - Bacon Cheeseburger w/ French Fries
Clean - What exactly is that? Actually, it would be a grilled chicken salad.

I can't eat real crap junk food anymore (it just  makes me ill), but my favorite non-Paleo treat is Tutti-Frutti frozen yogurt.

My favorite "good" meal is a homemade hamburger with avocado, mushrooms and grilled onions/peppers, with a side of baked sweet potato "fries."  Oh, and a shot of Patron silver on the rocks.

The junkiest I can go is maybe a plate of nachos. But all and all, I prefer healthy. Anything with chickpeas or advocados, or both. For lunch I had a remarkable sandwhich made of humus, smashed avocado, hot mustard and tomatos, lots of salt and pepper. Anything with tofu. Beans are awesome. A good veggie chili is good times. Lentils.

Junk Food? of course ice cream, pancakes Bread, pasta  and nachos. These days I only eat frozen yogurt.

Good food meal? I should say ok healthy food because I do not really like healthy food at all except fruits.

White eggs Omelets with outmeal, banana or blueberries ( my version of pancakes), Salads, thai food, salmon, red beets.

I don't really eat junk food--don't like sweets or fried stuff, detest ground beef, can't eat cheese, so that rules out most Western fast food. As junky as I get is some kind of grilled sandwich--usually salmon-- and a big bowl of french fries with chili ketchup (a SE Asian thing).  My favorite cafe also has killer spicy Virgin Marys full of veggie sticks to wash it all down with. I justify it since I sweat so much here that I always crave salt.

As for healthy food, geez....I love to eat!  Have always prefered Asian food, for some reason. Favorites are Lao, Thai, Malaysian, South Indian, and Indonesian dishes. Anything that's rice-based, not too oily, and has a kick to it. I am a chili and lemongrass addict. Rice, fish, veggies, any kind of spicy curry to heat it up, a nice coconut or mango smoothie to kill the flames--heaven on a plate! As for Western food, I prefer breakfast/brunch.....around noon or thereabouts when I have really earned it. My favorite (almost weekly) refueling consists of something called the "Turkish Brunch": raw veggies, bread sticks, and bagel chips with hummis, feta and spinach omelette (I can put up with feta, and there's not much of it in there anyway), a grilled tomato with garlic and herbs, roasted new potatoes, a bread basket (I always just eat the bagel), iced coffee, fresh juice, and greek yogurt with fresh strawberries or a plate of tropical fruit. Yep, I really eat all that. Anyone hungry yet?

I had Blooming Onions from Outback for the 5th time in my life... and I loved it. Thank Chief Quipuhua they're too far away to visit more often.

Clean? I pack nuts (hehehe) and fruits for snacks at work.

I don't eat a lot of "crap" food simply because I don't like the way it makes me feel, but I do love a good  hamburger when I can get one..usually after a hard work out..

My favorite "good" meal is lean ground turkey, big plate of greens, and a sweet potato..
