Karma pretty much likes her dry pellet and bug mix from the petstore, live crickets, and occasionally whatever she sees me eat. She even grabbed a bit of a Vietnamese spring roll out of my hand one time.
She's gotten pretty big (and fat) and likes to be social, asking to be let out of her cage so she can roam the house and sit on the back of the couch -- or pal around with my wife's dogs.

You make sure to give her regular salads as well, right? Romaine, green leaf, etc is great for beardies. Just stay away from broccoli, cabbage, and spinach -- they contain oxalates, which are calcium binding. Beardies are great fun; they're like ectothermic, scaley dogs...you just can't beat their awesome personalities. I hear you on the spring roll thing...my parrots also eat whatever I eat in addition to their regular diet. My yellow-sided green cheek conure goes nuts for strawberries! She also grabbed a nip of my beer once when I wasn't looking, and now she'll fly across the room chasing my glass of Blue Moon, lol!
