    Expensive drinks when I’m out for dinner etc. But I guess that’s the cost of socialising.

      I hate when two drinks are more than my meal and i think i should have just invited friends to my place for the same price.

    Weed from the Netherlands. Tobacco. I stopped smoking for 9 years and now I’m on 2-3 joints a day. Fuck. Should at least use my vaporizer again.

      That might be your gut microbiome craving it. You can re-anchor your microbiome with new bacteria but it takes about a week or two.

      I start getting cravings for strawberry banana smoothies with spinach now. Or berry smoothies. Costco sells unflavored yogurt and milk in bulk, same wity big bags of frozen berries. It’s typically replaced desserts for me because they are filling. (I also have one of those bullet shaped blenders where the lid becomes a drink cup. I have a few cups so I can just rinse the blades and then throw the cup in the dishwasher. )

      I used to have those same cravings, so I know how it feels!

    Starbucks coffee, and even more so, their tea. Just doesn’t seem like a good use of my money, since I can make it at home for a lot less money.

        I felt guilty for buying a fancy coffee machine but it’s probably paid for itself over the last few years.

      I was gonna say energy drinks. I gave them up for a year and demonstrated to myself that I don’t need them. Then I let them back into my life and again developed a (mostly mental) dependency on them.

      I used to be the same but with a Keurig and some flavored creamer we’re able to go to the coffee shop maybe once every couple months and I drink a lot of coffee. Costco even sells pods made from paper that are biodegradable so I don’t have to feel guilty throwing them in the trash.

      fyi, that coffee you are buying isn’t “fancy.” Buy yourself actual fancy coffee and grind and brew it yourself. I bet you could get some extremely amazing brew say, $250/lb and it would be cheaper then then the shit you buy daily.

    I order hot sauce on a regular basis and eat it way too often. Also habanero chips (crisps).

    Both are gone way too fast.

      Try searching for a “refillery” or refill station near you. They are stores where you bring reusable containers with you to fill with goods. They usually have a limited selection but it’s something and it helps.

        I’ve been doing that for things like shampoo and detergents. But unfortunately I’ve got celiacs. All my food HAS to be packaged so that I know it’s safe to eat.
