fave snack foods

**perSue** · 01-20-2008, 08:51 PM

not exactly the most frugal of posts, but what's your favourite snack food... be it healthy, junk food, something you make yourself.

i love popcorn. i could eat it all day. and i do the air-popped plain - no salt or butter. sometimes i will add salt, but not always.

but if i'm having a sweet tooth, chocolate or rice pudding.

how about you?

ice cold watermelon

I get on kicks where I have to have it. I will head to the grocery store up to twice a week for it. At $0.59 a pound - it is about the cheapest fruit around here.

I like my popcorn the old fashioned way, pop it on the stove in peanut oil.
My favorite is Doritoes covered with cheese and baked.

chips, popcorn, chocolate, cookies, cake, candy, crackers, cheese, dips, appetizers, cheezies, nachos...

If I could get away with only eating snack food (and when no one's looking I do) I would be perfectly happy.

Pretzels! I can eat a whole bag of Snyder pretzels in two days.

A bowl of cereal or Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich with a glass of milk.

Chips and salsa!!!!!!!!! Or garlic bread. I prefer salty/spicy food over sweets.

I love tortilla chips and homemade guacamole. Thank goodness no one else here likes guacamole....I tend to eat the whole bowl!

Pop corn with lots of butter
Mozzarella sticks.

When I'm watching what I eat: baked lays, popcorn, skinny cow ice cream cones, hershey kisses

When I'm not: chex mix, ice cream, cheetos, nuts, any kind of chips....dip

Chocolate, of course.

I also like crunchy snacks like Triscuit crackers. They actually have some nutritional value, too.

I'd cut down on the popcorn, if I were you. Unless you really want lung disease.

Personally, I have a fruit yoghurt.

They are talking about the bagged microwave popcorn, not air popped corn.
