Would you rather give up coffee or pasta?

Ugh, I used to be addicted to coffee, but I gave it up because I realized that I shouldn't "need" a drug like caffiene.

Mac & cheese isn't hard for me to give up considering I've given up dairy products.

But I'd choose pasta 100%.
Whole grain goodness.

What's your favorite type of apple?

Fuji, honeycrisp, and jonigold. Mmm.

Sweet, juicy, crispy, and one is enough to fill you up for a while.

What's the one food you just won't eat?

Olives and mushrooms.

You know, I just can't stand their...texture.
It's sort of like tomatoes.
I mean, it took me a while to tolerate tomatoes, but olives and mushrooms are "new" to me, I guess, considering tomatoes have been pushed on me since I was a kid.

Also, raisens and cotton candy. Ew.

What's your favorite type of apple?

@frenchassassin: Haven't tried the Piñata but it's related of my current favorite, the Cameo. Both are part Golden Delicious. Cameo is G/D + Red Delicious. Funny, because I dislike both G/D and R/D apples. I believe Pinata is G/D + Cox's Orange Pippen + Duchess of Oldenberg. That's some diverse parentage.

I'll be on the lookout for Piñata. Sounds like my kind of apple.

Well, being as how I only drink coffee every other am, alternating days with strong tea, I could give up coffee. I only drink one cup anyway. But, pasta???, are you crazy?? I could no more give up my pasta than I could fly! I probably have at least a dozen boxes of various pasta in my pantry right now.

Pasta. Radley24, I went through that caffeine withdrawal, it took me 3 days to get over it! But now I'm back on one cup a day and am a mess without it ..

I would give up coffee... no contest.

Oh JEP, why, WHY? I'd have to say coffee, since I'm down to 1 cup a day. But it would be a sad, sad world without it. [Sob!]

Granny Smith and McIntosh!

Would you rather give up coffee or pasta?

Yeah, it'd have to be coffee. I was horrified when I recently went for 2 days without caffiene, convinced that I wasn't addicted since I can go to sleep 10 minutes after drinking coffee or Diet Coke and I had the WORST headache of my life that did not end. It ended about halfway through my first mug. I don't want to be in that state again, so I have been slowly weaning myself...can't give up that pasta!
