subject verb agreement help? Here's my sentence w/ two subjects...?

"My love for sugar and passion for food keep me trying new flavors of ice creams."

Should it be keep me trying, or keeps me trying?
This is for a college essay so I'm looking for a definite answer not an opinion...and no that's not the sentence from my actual essay.

Ok. you have two subjects, separated by and. You therefore need to use "keep".
My love for sugar keeps me
My passion for food keeps me
But my love for sugar and passion for food keep me. Hope this helps.
