I like getting fried ice cream when getting mexican food. It all depends on my mood I guess but I do have a bit of a sweet tooth.

I never order desert. But I do occasionally order dessert. It depends on how hungry I am and where I'm eating dinner.

I order deserts all the time. The keep my mouth nice and dry.

I get dessert every so often. Cheesecake, key lime pie, and ice cream are big favorites of mine.

Last time I ordered one I got sand in my mouth. I slashed the waiter's tires on my way out :|

it's very rare that there's something on the dessert menu healthy enough for me to even think about.

if I'm with people who are ordering dessert, I'll just order a cup of coffee.

I eat dessert of some kind almost every night, but not necessarily right after dinner. Usually, after dinner, we put the kids to bed, I do some work, then I have a little something (a bowl of cereal being the norm).

I rarely order dessert at restaurants unless someone else is paying ;) and I am not the only one having dessert.

So, poll fail.

On occasion we will order a dessert. Usually, though, only if we are going out to some place to splurge or if it is a special occasion (e.g. birthday).

I didn't know you could order: "a dry, barren and often sandy region"

lulz... If you are at a restaurant, you can kiss any "healthy eating" goodbye.

Edit - To answer the question though, no I avoid them. I don't wanna ruin the nice meat flavor that I have going on in my mouth.

i just don't consider it part of a meal.

Unless on a date with a new woman. I wouldn't stuff myself in that situation, and sharing a dessert is fun :lips:

well thats different, thats an occasion, but for a meal no need. i don't stuff myself, i just don't feel like eating sugary stuff at that point. once you are satiated eating cake or icecream is just less satisfying.

I can usually scrap together something healthy enough... worst case scenario, that's what salad is for. I don't really trust myself enough to give myself "off" days or off meals where watching what I'm consuming isn't a primary concern.

The last time I ordered a desert, it was so large it took up much of the middle east...:roll:

Never again. I'll stick to an occasional dessert instead.

With a meal at a restaurant almost never. However by themselves as a snack like ice cream. Much more often.
