Trof was an extremely bad influence on me with encouraging putting peanut butter in the microwave for a few seconds and pouring that on top of ice cream.
I don't do this terribly delicious habit anymore thank goodness.

(12,318 posts)11. I eat cookies
I just eat cookies that I make with special flour and sugar alternative.
Those are sugar free chocolate chips, not raisins.
