Wow, where should I start...

Well, chocolate obviously!

A ton of cuban foods (when your raised on the stuff you never grow tired of it): arroz con frijoles negros (black beans and rice), tostones (it's a plantain that is fried- sort of like a chip), madudas (a fried ripe plantain- it's really sweet), ropa bieja (I know I'm spelling that wrong, but it's meat that is cooked in a special sauce for several hours and then served), pealla, arroz con pollo (rice and chicken), conpulta (it's like a squash soup with carrots- my Abuela served this to me all the time when I was younger so I ended up  I getting carrotosis from it)...

Oh! And cuban pastries!  :love5:

Beyond Cuban food I love dim sum, especially the shrimp noodles, Mexican food never grows old, Lebonese is awesome, and home made food also never grows old...

I lived off of rice and beans for a good two weeks when I went to Cuba.  Of course, they gave us meat, but not every meal and they had to get it off the black market.

Mmmm...chocolate...ice cream!  Yeah, I probably couldn't get tired of chocolate ice cream either! :)

Hmmm ... Gingerbread ice-cream.  That would add another food group to my chocolate and pizza diet plan.
