not interested in any traif food per se, esp of the animal variety; I wish we could eat veg / fruit w/o checking for bugs -- there are so many things we can't eat anymore bc of the bug situation. And things like OU-D ice cream & chocolate, which is supposedly really delicious.
Oh well! I'll live without it Very Happy

Yep. I want to eat the Cinnabons. Also, I've always wanted to taste tacos with meat and cheese and sour cream, and especially Indian food with meat and yogurt.

I had kosher Cinnabon in Chicago. It was good but it wasn’t as to die for as I expected it to be.

Lucky me!
I get to eat non kosher OuD products.
And they really are delicious.
How about trying to answer Op's question about non kosher foods that interest you and not bring perfectly kosher foods with excellent hechsherim into the discussion

There was a kosher vegan "shrimp" product available at my local co-op for awhile that is no longer there and it was a pretty good approximation of fried shrimp, both in terms of texture and taste. Was made of konjac root and some other things. The brand was Sophie's or something, frozen foods. Empire turkey bacon is delicious and IMO tastes even better than pork bacon which is too greasy and fatty.

For those saying they want Hershey bars, I can tell you that high-quality chalav yisrael chocolate bars, like those from Schmerling's, are so much better than Hershey's. Hershey's is low quality chocolate.

Now, Lindt truffles are quite good. I can see that you'd want those. But the best chocolate overall is Schmerling's Noblesse 72% chocolate. It's dark chocolate, my favorite.

Most c"y chocolates taste like hazelnut to some degree. (Especially shmerlings!) I hate hazelnut. So I actually prefer Hersheys. But by Hersheys, I also mean Lindt and Godiva and Ghirardelli and TCHO.

There was another thread about foods that make you gag and I had nothing to contribute. Until reading this thread. With lobster at the top of the list. Yes, I know it's not a mitzvah to be disgusted by traif.

I would just want Velveeta on everything.
On TV, the 80's, poured over broccoli, it looked delicious. (The kosher one separated and was not good at all).
Through my job, I have been in random people's homes and I have smelled cooked bacon. I find the smell very strong and nauseating. Sea creatures, as a poster above stated, look like roaches or something gross.

Trust me on this one -- you'd taste it once and run away in horror. Velveeta is pretty repulsive.

I miss a good cheese steak. Pepperoni pizza. Shrimp, lobster, mussels, clams, crab, oysters, scallops.

Most of all, I miss the ease of being able to go anywhere and finding something to eat.

Do you know why a kosher chef won’t ever win a cooking competition ? Because they cook steak on butter!

Isn’t the Cinnabon in Kings plaza kosher ? I’ve had it once and was definitely good but tasted very commercial. I’ve made ones that were better .

I love vietnamese food. So I miss Pho the most. And I miss those all you can eat chinese places.

Good beef fry is better then bacon.

We dont eat dairy and fish together. I've always badly wanted to taste a tuna melt (tuna fish salad on a bagel with melted Munster cheese). My roommate used to make the and they smelled heavenly.
