So I had to stop for gas on the way home yesterday, and called offering to pick up some snacks for a studying Matt. I bought several varieties of Combos at his request, and some Smartfood popcorn (hey, it can't hurt the grades, right?). On the way home I entertained myself by thinking about the seemingly ridiculous claim that Pepperoni Pizza Combos are "crunchy oven baked pizza crusts with a Zesty pepperoni & cheese flavored filling." I mean, powdered pepperoni?Grodiness.
Cut to my arrival at home today, where aforementioned Combos sit open in front of this very computer. I would not normally make such a culinary bungee jump into the abyss of artificial flavor. But I was really hungry. Really. So I ate a Pepperoni Pizza Combo and darn it if it wasn't completely delicious. Darn it.
So now I add Pepperoni Pizza Combos to my list of guilty pleasure foods. And by this I do not mean something that is only high in calories or expense. I'm talking about processed, cheap, (dare I say redneck?) foods that you will barely admit to liking. Also on my list: Banana Moon Pies (strange because I usually hate banana flavoring) and the occasional combo meal from Captain D's.
Anyone else feel like confessing?

I think everything on the menu at Krystal could be considered "redneck food". But my personal favorite (and most guilty fast food pleasure) is the Scrambler, a medley of breakfast foods layered into a styrofoam bowl. The kicker: the square piece of fake cheese, obviously just removed from the plastic rapper, only slightly melted on top of the morning treat. Mmm.
