Mmmm.... food.....

Okay, so I read a few local foodie blogs here in Cincinnati and recently, the "Top 100" lists have been making the rounds. Julie over at Wine Me, Dine Me put up her Carnivore's 100.

Thanks to B and K, aka the Westside Foodie Wannabes, I now have a Sweet Tooth's 100 to think about. Here's the deal: You bold the ones you've tried and cross out the ones you would never, ever eat. That simple, right?

  3. I try to stay away from sugar as it will make me look pregnant as I approach middle aged. I just don't want to be that preganant uncle.

    But Oreos are deliciuous.

  6. I really want to find places in Cincinnati that will serve some of these things, or at least sell them for home consumption.

    I have some that I would add, including Twinkies/Ding-Dongs and Girl Scout Cookies. C'mon!!
