Popcorn, plain and simple: I ate it once a few months ago and regretted it because it took me 30 minutes to clean out my teeth/gumline. I pretty much eat everything else with no issues and I haven't broken a bracket yet (with nuts, I chop them; I eat taco shells all the time; I chew sugar-free gum, which I did anyway, etc.).

I do eat jerky. I just pull little strips off with my fingers and chew carefully. It's bad enough I had to give up popcorn, I'm not going to go crazy :)

Chomping a big juicy burger.
Too painful the first few days after an adjustment.
But then it gets better and I binge on burgers before another adjustment.
