I am a prolific and unrepentant snacker. I just chopped up some peanut butter and prunes, and am eating them with thick greek yoghurt with syrup on top.

I had some cashews earlier, and sometimes if I fancy something savoury but don't have bread in I will get a paratha out the freezer, fry it, slather it in butter, cheese, and marmite, and then roll it up and eat it. I will definitely have another snack later, even though I am going out for dinner at a friend's...

So AIBU to ask what snacks you like eating ?

Oatcakes (the cheese ones) with butter.

Ilovemyshed · 23/08/2024 17:20

Ryvita, lashings of butter, marmite. Soft cheese and biscuits with grapes

I’m a snacker too. My latest fixations are peach Frubes (kept in the freezer), carrot sticks, yogurt rice cakes, Lentil salt and vinegar crisps (I think the brand is Properchips), and Happy Hippo.

Apple and cheese

Gowlett · 23/08/2024 17:24

Anything dipped in tahini.
Nice crunchy Brazil nuts.
Tortilla chips, Greek yogurt.
A few spoonfuls of Haagen Dazs (the whole tub…)

DelphiniumBlue · 23/08/2024 17:24

Today, it's Hovis biscuits with fairly soft Brie.
Sometimes it's little slices of cheddar with Walkers cheese & onion crisps. Occasionally cheese with chutney or pickled onions.
Cheese always features in my snacks unless it's smoked salmon pate!

Xatz63 · 23/08/2024 17:24

I also like ryvitas the seseme seed ones with either wensleydale cheese or feta with silver skin onions

ProvincialLady2024 · 23/08/2024 17:27

Mini pitta breads and tarasmolata - stinky I know.

Spicy chorizo slices wrapped around salty French cream cheese.

Slices of apple dipped in honey.

Jam tarts.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 23/08/2024 17:31

Tahini mixed with yoghurt and a drizzle of honey

Cucumber or apple slices with peanut butter

Cream cheese and chilli jam with crackers

SingingSands · 23/08/2024 17:34

Another one who likes a good oatcake - piled high with cheese usually

GoingOutShoes · 23/08/2024 17:40

Toasted sourdough bagel with cream cheese and pastrami.

TheChosenTwo · 23/08/2024 17:41

Just whatever’s in the cupboard if I want a snack.
I'm too lazy to be preparing anything, I’ll have something like crackers or crisps or a biscuit.

Wolfpa · 23/08/2024 17:49

Ginger cake/ ginger biscuits and cheese

Skyrainlight · 23/08/2024 17:50

Currently thick slices of cucumber with salt and pepper and then a dollop of hummus and sprinkle of chilli flakes on the top.

Thevelvelletes · 23/08/2024 18:19

Pickled onions in the most vinegary of vinegar.😝

Ooh, try the chilli jam with soft goat's cheese. Life changing.

RabbitsRock · 23/08/2024 18:27

Hummus (highly amused that it kept coming out as bummus 🤣🤣🤣) with breadsticks.
Jacob’s cream crackers, thickly buttered, sometimes with cheese.
Malt loaf thickly buttered - there’s a theme emerging here!
I’ve developed much more of a sweet tooth since giving up drinking. My latest go to is Lidl’s jellybeans in 20 flavours. I like them all except the cola.

CowboyJoanna · 23/08/2024 18:30

Love rarebit, twiglets, fish and chip crisps, hot wotsit giants, philly on crackers, buttery crumpets

Biscofffan · 23/08/2024 18:36

Blimey I am impressed! I love a snack but cheddar on rosemary crackers or celery (my current addiction) and hummus are my limits. I admire all your inventive and elaborate snackage!👏👏👏

I read the post title and thought, I can contribute to that, favourite snack, going to write a Twix. Now I have read the thread and I have no place here...

cosyleafcafe · 23/08/2024 18:43

Lentil chips with baba ganoush.

Or wotsits is my current less bougie option!

Meadowwild · 23/08/2024 18:45

green olives stuffed with almonds
good quality ready salted crisps
juicy clementines and tangerines
dark ryvita with real butter and too much marmite
water biscuits with crumbly, pale blue stilton (not the yellow waxy sweaty stinky kind.)

Rockfordpeach · 23/08/2024 18:46

Bread sticks and guacamole

Apple and slices of cheese

Oh no, you belong here. Twix definitely counts.

When I crave chocolate, I need Snickers or Double Decker. Got to specify which bar you want.
