    High quality chocolate. Most of the stuff in the local grocery stores is cheap, waxy and awful. There’s a place within reasonable distance with the good stuff, but it’s hella expensive.

      Aldi and Lidl have good German and Belgian chocolates pretty cheaply. Like $2 for a big bar.

        Thanks! That is good to know. We have some of those around. Not on our usual rotation (a little out of the way) but this could change that. I know they have pretty good produce in there, because I have used them for that on occasion.

          Pointy!

          No but really it’s got a deep flavor with some metallic tone, like tuna? It’s fantastic as a big “steak”.

        Swordfish is a great answer!

        It’s been too long since I had that! Got scared off due to all the mercury levels, and now I forget about how great it tastes, mercury be damned!

    Ones prepared by my personal shopper and chef, because I want to eat healthy but have more time for creative and outdoor activities.

      … and environment.

      I’d love to eat ribeyes daily, but guilt (and heart attack) would stop me pretty quickly

        I scuba dove with a school of like 1000 blue fin tuna in the Philippines, and now it’s hard to order / not feel horrible eating tuna sushi

    Nice restaurant food, but I guess that doesn’t count.

    Lychees. The funny thing is that I can afford lychees, but I always think “Why buy them when these perfectly good grapes cost three times less?”

      Lychees are fine, but rambutan are the GOAT. I’m not sure where you live, but they’re super hard to find in the US in good quality.

          That’s fascinating. I never got that taste from rambutan. We actually had a tree in our yard, along with papaya, and I would just go pick them fresh before school.

          You ever had snake fruit? Now that’s an acquired taste!

    Chips. I love chips, I like trying different flavors, but these days, justifying 5-7 dollars a bag for times other than parties and get togethers is getting harder and harder to do.

    Local special, long away.

    Cost of food is not an issue for me. What is an issue is that I have no time nor budget to make long travel (inter-continent, with weeks off job) to eat.

    With money, I can stop working and go on a vacation.

    Actually healthy and nutritious and delicious breakfast food. I can have two of the three for reasonable prices if I make it myself. But I want all three at max level, and I don’t want to have to make it myself from scratch.

    Sushi would be nice. I have pretty cheap/basic taste otherwise lol. Maybe Korean fried chicken.
