... if you had zero impulse control.

I'll go first:

1. Marzipan loafs, chocolate covered.
Can't stop eating this stuff. Not sure what would kill me first; stomach rupture or hydrogen cyanide poisoning.

2. Plain salted potatoe crisps/chips (a bit of crushed pepper doesn't hurt).
As I've grown older my cravings has shifted drastically from sweet to salty. My grandfarther on my farthers side practically ate salt like it was candy and lived to be nearly 100 years old. Keeping my fingers crossed he passed those genes to me.

3. Salted liquorice.
I think it's a Scandinavian thing. Absolutely love liquorice that gives you instant osteoporosis and/or blood pressure that breaks the meter.
One of my favorites is Super Piratos.

And I got a jar of these for Christmas (Svenskjävlar!). They are delicious. Thank you Sweden!

4. Green olives with almonds. Soooo goood!

5. A local(?) dish called 'Stægt Flæsk med Persillesovs' (Fried pork with parsley sauce)
Slices of pork, fried to a crisp +lightly salted and served with boiled potatoes and a béchamel sauce that's been saturated with chopped parsley.
Very simple dish (some might say primitive), but stupidly tasty, and you will have a hard time finding a Danish cook book that doesn't contain the recipe.

What do you think taste so good that it ought to be illegal?

Curry. Doesn't have to be super spicy, but a nice Dhansak is hard to beat.

My mouth is already watering.
I could eat bhaji and pakoras until the bursting point. I had a couple of Gujaratis working for me, and they turned me on to what is now my favorite snack, khandvi.

OMG, yes! Forgot about Haribo gummy bears. Can't get enough of those either... the real one with sugar, not these:
