Yep.  I can't recall the last time I ate a donut.  It's been years, hell, maybe decades, but, I would miss sushi.  
I can't do donuts any longer. Ate one for the first time in years a few years ago ago nope. Never again.

yeah, is it all tacos?  or just the ground beef one shown there?  I could give that up, but could never give up tacos overall.  Donuts would be the easiest.  And same question for sushi, is it just those salmon rolls or would it be like all sashimi, nigiri, and all rolls of any kind?  Bacon stays no matter what or I cut a bitch using that sushi knife whilst yelling "YASAMASHEI!" 

BTW-was the Curb bit at the sushi restaurant on Larry's date, was that adapted from the Albert brooks dinner scene in "Defending Your Life" as some kinda tribute to his brother, Bob?  I'd like to think it was.

It was very clever and still holds up nicely today.  I hadn’t watched it since probably around the time of CYE’s debut.  And maybe I’m just projecting as I often do.  But there’s a running theme in the film, and you can google just those scenes (but watch the whole film at some point), where the residents can dine out and be gluttonous with no consequences.  And there’s a great scene with Brooks and Streep at this sushi place.  And I was trying to remember why it seemed so familiar.  I had only seen the movie maybe twice 20-25 years ago.  But then I realized, after Albert’s brother died around the time of Larry dating Claire on his show, and they go out for sushi and there’s so many parallels.  Again; maybe just my imagination but it seems like something Larry would slide in there under the radar.
