I just had some steamed broccoli dipped in a little mayonnaise. Mmmmmmmmmm! That's good. You eat a lot of mayonaise growing up in Hawaii. No wonder I've lost thirty pounds since I moved away. That was the first time I'd had steamed broccoli w/ mayonnaise in nine months! I'd forgotten how yummy it was. It was common practice to have a steamed green vegitable ( that we dipped in mayo) with dinner. Broccoli, artichoke and Asparigus were popular. Add steak and rice to one of those and you've got dinner at my house three days out of the week.

Anyway, the topic: snacks.

I snack on a lot of veggies now. Carrot sticks and banana's are what I snack on the most. Because I do all my own grocery shopping I don't have much junk-food in the pad.

I also snack on a lot of cereal. I like the bland stuff. Crispex, Rice Krispies, Grape-nuts, granola, shredded wheat, etc.

I also enjoy nuts, raw or roasted; dark chocolate chips, strait from the bag; Plain Yogurt with jam and or grape-nuts in it.

I eat a lot of small meals, so just about anythig I eat could be considered a snack.

Try the broccoli w/ mayo though. It's awesome!

*Homer voice* mmmmm...snacks
I like chips, poptars, carrots...but my favorite must be lemon with salt. I know it's not good for my teeth but it's good!

I don't know nuthin' about no healthy snacks! Well, I do like to snack on cheese. But for a quick break, a candy bar and a can of pop suit me just well.

It's rare for me to have snack foods around my place. I recently had several bags of Bottle Caps candy, which I snacked on religiously. Sadly, they are gone now! I can only hope I will get more for Christmas!

I've been eating alot of snacks since I got to college.

Pringles
Junior mints
mini milkyways that i've been keeping in the freezer
Pez
soft drinks form the vending machines
milkshakes from the late night dining hall

I hope those rumors about the freshman 15 aren't true

Being a typical American teenage male, I'd eat anything edible and/or dead... ;)
...But ever since I reformed my eating habits a year ago, I never snack anymore. ;)

If I still were snacking, though, I'd eat bananas, Frosted Flakes, and perhaps the ocassional candy bar.

Oh, and brocolli rules! It's the best veggie there is. I'll try the mayo, but have any tried brocolli with ketchup and cheeze whiz? :)

I tried brocolli with ketchup and melted cheese. Does that count? Oh, BTW, it's very good. I highly recommend it.

Though, my favorite of all time's gotta be:

-Tortilla chips w/ marinara sauce
-Toasted white bread (plain.....really!)
-Yogurt w/ chocolate chips (must be milk chocolate...dark chocolate makes me queeeeeeeeeezy...)

The best snack is Robertson's beef jerky. I have two stores nearby (okay, Seminole and Ardmore, but it's only a couple of hours). It's also at the Love's Country Stores, but they chinch filling Love's jars.

Chips, cheese, chocolate. Anything with "ch."

And Max, I will love you forever if you have the secret recipe for macaroni salad. It NEVER tastes as good on the Mainland unless a kamaaina makes it. We've tried everything from eggs to carrot shreds to sesame oil and can never hit it right. What's the secret? Pleeeeeeeeeease?

Either cheese (not that sliced crap - REAL cheese) or anything sour (Sour Kids, Skittles, whatever!).

Carrots, pretzels and graham crackers usually, though occasionally cheese and chocolate. Not together, mind you.

Fruit snacks. They are the one thing I never get sick of. Never. I've eaten 20 fruit by the foots in a couple of hours and would've ate more if I didnt want to save some for the next day. They're gonna be my downfall. If you ever see a headline saying "Man killed in apparent overdose of fruit snacks" it's prolly me.

My snack? Anything that's sitting in the kitchen. :D

But normally I'll be snacking on chips and dip.
