What dessert or junkfood do you always keep in stock at home?

Microwave popcorn. It's convenient enough that I can make it easily any time, but just inconvenient enough that it doesn't all get horked down on the first day.
- I find that stove top popcorn is even less convenient (so less tempting to eat all the time), but much cheaper, and maybe tastier in some ways.
  Get a ~500 g (1 lb or so?) bag of whole kernels for $3-ish, some oil that you use for cooking other stuff anyway, and salt. Heat the oil on the stove with a few kernels, then when those pop, briefly remove from heat and add more. Make sure the pot has a lid. Keep shaking it side to side to keep the popcorn from burning.
  I find it adds just enough oil to taste good, but not so much that I’m eating something super awful for me. (And it’s much tastier than air popped). And I assume you could still add melted butter if you want an extra treat.
  I want to get one of those movie theatre style things where the popcorn can fly out of the pot.
  
  I have one that's this style and I use it a lot. I got my parents this other kind though and think it works better

Anything remotely resembling a snack will not be left for long so we don't keep anything.
- Yep. The only way to prevent daily snacking is by not having snacks in the house.
- Same here. That's why I try to stock up on more than I think I'll need when things go on sale.
  
  The two types of mentalities on display:
  I'll eat too much so I shouldn't buy any
  I'll eat too much so I should buy more
- real

Nuts. Many kinds of nuts - peanuts, hazelnuts, almonds, cashews... Various mixes, sometimes with dried fruits, then there's the spiced and coated varieties

Junk food is a metaphor for thermodynamics. Nothing lasts. if it's in stock, then it's eaten. So I try not to buy any. But even then I will dip strawberries in sugar.
- dip strawberries in sugar
  Aha, i knew it u sick mothafucka!

Dark chocolate. Sweet enough to satisfy sugar cravings, but a low enough sugar content I can chomp on one to get my blood sugar up before going to the corner store for breakfast.
- I was with you until you said before breakfast!?!
  
  Dark chocolate (75%+) has a non-insignificant amount of caffeine in it, an ounce can have as much as a cup of black tea, so that may be why.

Potato chips/crisps!

None. If it's here, I'm eating it. I sometimes bring some home on grocery day but it's always gone that day.
Usually, pototo chips, chocolate covered pretzels, gummies, chocolate cover gummies.

Frozen mango pieces. I love eating those whenever I’m in the mood for something to snack.
Not sure if it counts as junk food, but it’s something I always try to keep at home. Though lately they’ve been sold out at the supermarket. So I’m forced to fall back on my 2nd choice, frozen raspberries.
- frozen raspberries
  Haha those should be first choice. Basically the polar opposite in terms of flavor profile
  
  Oh I love raspberries as well, it’s just that mangoes are more chewy when frozen.
  Raspberries tend to be very hard and not as nice to bite down on when they’re straight from the freezer. But the flavor is great, no argument here :)

Breakfast cereal
My wife and I both agree that it's a dessert, not a food XD
- What ones you like?
  
  I'm a sucker for fruity pebbles (I actually prefer the malt-o-meal bag version)

None. If I crave for something crunchy I eat carrots or nuts. If I want to eat sweets I make my own brownies, marzipan or chocolate chip cookies. And if I really want to each chips/crisps I make my own batch.
- When you say you make your own marzipan, do you start from almonds? That seems like so much work- is it significantly cheaper or better than store bought marzipan or do you just prefer to be self sufficient?
  
  When I have time I do it from scratch but usually I end up using almond flour.
- Mega chad behaviour 😎

Breakfast bars. They're not just for breakfast!
I'm also partial to chips & salsa.
- I love chips and salsa - issue being that I'll house a party sized bag of tortilla chips and a big ol container of salsa in like 2-3 sittings, which I guess is fine... But it feels like that many corn chips ain't healthy. Main concern is my salt intake.

Unsalted cashew nuts and french fries. The nuts I eat as is and usually run out by the end of the week. French fries I toss into the air fryier when ever I don't feel like cooking.

Pretzel rods. Chunky salt. Good crunch. Rods are the best hard pretzel shape.
- My favorite is the Synders sourdough but rods are a close second
  
  Snyder's pretzel pieces (the really really Ranch-y ones) are god-tier.
- There’s a brand of pretzel “crackers” that are nice and thin like a chip, but pretzeled. They also have a buffalo flavor with a nice little zing to it

Girardhelli brownie mix. Not claiming it's the best ever but it's 100x better than the Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines crap. But there's also the barrier of 5-10 mins prep and 25+ mins baking so it's not instant gratification y'know?
Once you bake a pan though it's pretty great for the next day or two. Assuming you're not too concerned with your waistline.
Edit: Oh and a box is like $3 at Big Lots. But you do have to supply an egg and cooking oil.
- Plus you can get a Costco sized box!
  Realistically this is also a healthy choice because it requires effort, so time to reconsider

Reese's Pieces.

Tbh I dont
- Thanks for sharing, sharkfucker420. Be safe out there and may the currents always be ever in your favor
- We don't either. We're also skinny. Go figure.
  
  Im just broke lol

Crisps or air fryer party mix containing stuff like frikadellen, chicken nuggets or bitter balls. If you don't know number 1 and 3 then I feel sorry for the sad life you have lived up until now and urge you to get off your ass and find a snack bar somewhere between Zierikzee and Delfzijl.

  You're confusing Dutch with German which is kind of like confusing Portuguese with Spanish. Or Iowa with Kentucky in your language.

I miss trader Joe's dried chili mango and candied hibiscus, their entire dried fruit section really.
- candied hibiscus? like the flower is candied?
  
  Hibiscus flowers are full of vitamin c, and taste like cranberries!

It changes for me but right now I got some Fat Boy ice cream sandwiches. This is my first time getting these and they are so delicious.
- I fukken love fat boys. Sometimes I'll mix up the name to introduce some fun to a situation. One time I turned to my partner and said "be right back I'm gonna absolutely fucking destroy a fat man" and she was deeply confused until I came back with an ice cream sandwich.

ricey crackers, they have chocolate and rice. everything one needs, besides some water..
- Oh no now I need some 😛. Had totally forgotten they existed 🤤

Cheez-its sadly. I can’t stop. Help.
- Same. My only defense is to not buy them.

Gotta have peanut M&Ms

Nutella

Tortilla chips, Haribo gummy bears, ice cream and TJ's peanut butter pretzels are all staple junk food that I usually restock before I run out.

A shitload of my favorite brand of protein bars, tastes just close enough to a chocolate bar that I dont feel cheated.
Also the fitness branded protein ice creams. 360 calories and I get to fuck up a whole pint watching TV?
And both of them help me hit my protein targets for the day.
- Are there savory protein bars available?
  
  Most savory protein options are like some sort of jerky.

Pomegranate molasses.

An off-brand oreo called Kaleidos. Idk what it is but they are better than oreos, and they're cheaper to boot.
Also a bag of milk chocolate chips. spread some peanut butter on bread, sprinkle some chips on top and pop them in the toaster oven. Boom. Toasted PB&C, goes nicely with a small cup of milk. Great when it's cold outside.

Pocky Sticks… so many Pocky Sticks!!

Redbull. It’s not quite what was asked, but it’s about the only thing that is always stocked.

These things:

Granola Bars
Cookies
Chips and salsa
Apple's + pb
Popcorn

Ritz peanut butter crackers for as my fat intake.

anything that comes in little pieces, like toffeefe or manner.
I'm on a diet but a huge sweettooth. This helps me grab one of them as a dessert after a healthy meal.

Chips and hummus, sometimes B*tchin’ Sauce

Grapes, apple sauce, avocados

The things that Tim had in his coat pocket that he was so delighted to rediscover that he swore about it.
And if you're wondering "Who's Tim?", oh boy do I have the turn-of-the-century Edgar Wright miniseries for you to watch.
And I don't even do the drugs that require munchies-curing sweet snack foods. I just [expletive verb] love [these particular confections].
- Lame to recommend a show and not name it!
  I’ve seen Spaced a few times but it’s been a while and I don’t remember what Tim had in his coat pocket. Guess that means it’s time for a rewatch! (Not a hard sell.)
