Title: What's your favorite snack?
Post by: BlackCurtains on February 17, 2021, 08:05:41 AM
(I sure do start a lot of topics about food :lookround: )

What do you like to snack on? Me, definitely popcorn! I loooove popcorn. Store bought is okay. I like Wise and SmartFood white cheddar. SmartFood changed the recipe or something a while ago and it's not as good as it used to be. The bags are also 2 ounces less than they were but the same price. I actually wrote them a snail mail letter (I find they get people's attention) lamenting the changes and they sent a nice letter back with coupons for free popcorn :)

Microwave popcorn I ate a lot of as a kid. I just had a bag last night for the first time in years. It was so dry! And it was Orville Redenbacher too. Their stove top kernels are way better.

Speaking of, stove top popcorn is the best! I bought a popcorn pan with a crank in the handle that sweeps wires across the bottom, so you don't have to shake the pan. I like trying different varieties of kernels. My favorite is probably hulless white. It's so tender and goes well with white cheddar flavoring.

Popcorn isn't the only thing I snack on. When they're in season I like fresh dark cherries and just recently I discovered feta cheese stuffed green olives - yum!

I have so many snacks!! I don't know where to begin...
Popcorn, peanut butter crackers, bananas, cucumber, chips, peanuts, ice cream...
I'm a huge snacker I can't help it!

I'm terrible about snacks lately...I am addicted to the peanut butter filled chocolate Girl Scout knock-off cookies they sell at Aldi's. Wish I could stop eating them, but I justify that the peanut butter part is filled with protein and I need more protein.

I feel like the more appropriate question is least favorite snack....

Crisps (which folks in the States call chips), hooves down!!! I could eat good cheese & onion or other vegetarian flavoured crisps until they come out of my ears!!! An unusual crisp I enjoy is root vegetable crisps, where you take the likes of parsnip, beetroot & carrot, slice them thinly, & fry like the potato snack. YUM!!!

Oooh... I have a huge sweet tooth, so any kind of chocolate, especially those little kinder choco bon things you can get. Biscuits, yogurts...

I also really like crisps, cheese, crackers, carrots and hummus… I could go on and on about food  :lol:

Too much to list, as I'm a big fat glutton. Chips, candy, chocolate, cookies, cheezits, peanuts, cashews, walnuts, apples, tangerines, toasts with different kinds of sauces as toppings, sometimes I even make myself instant ramen noodles at night when I have lots of work to do, I always have different flavors in my cupboard.

Hey, food is the best!

I'm not a huge snacker, on weekdays I sometimes have nuts or fruit or a yogurt between meals but that's about it... But on weekends / movie nights / get-togethers (remember when we still used to have people over? :P ) I can't keep my hands off the treats. :D Crisps are my favourite but I have a sweet tooth as well. It's been a good while since I last had popcorn as hubby is not a fan. I should buy some for a change!

Nowadays there are also all kinds of alternatives to potato crisps, like crisps made with veggies, lentils, chickpeas, you name it... I like most of them tbh, I'm not too picky.  :biggrin:

Dips are also amazing. I like to dip veggies (carrots, cucumber etc.) or crisps or flatbread. Hummus, tzatziki, guacamole, cheesy dips... bring it on! One of my recent findings is cauliflower "wings". Yum!

Oh yeah! I love chips made from veggies and there is a lentil and snap pea chip that I really like but they're a bit expensive for what you get.

I forgot! Recently I made Muddy Buddies/Puppy Chow or whatever other names it goes by. Sooo good! I don't have much of a sweet tooth but ate a whole bunch of that stuff. I used Cinnamon and Chocolate Chex to give it some extra yum :)

I'm more of a salty person than sweet, so I like things like cheese and crackers, chips, etc.  Pretzels, popcorn.  Orville used to have a pour over chedder popcorn that was awesome.  It had a packet of cheese sauce you poured over the popcorn.

ruby chocolate buttons for me. they're pink, chocolate and have this sweet, tart berry flavor to them. delicious!
other than that, i'm a big fan of drinkable snacks. fruit smoothies, bubble tea, protein shakes; something that feels fresh and i can grab on the go. sitting down with candy, crisps or crackers sadly tends to upset my stomach rather quickly.

I'm addicted to Whole Grain Goldfish crackers. I wouldn't have ever had even tried them but a decade ago when a big snowstorm was coming in and I needed Goldfish, that's all they had at the store, so I ended up with the Whole Grain type, and I have never looked back.

I love Whole Grain Cheez-Its, too.

Whole Grain = more crispness, which is the best!

I think I'm getting addicted to matcha chocolate (even though I don't like the taste of the tea itself), why does something so fattening have to be so delicious?
