to ask what your favourite snack is

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 ?

This thread inspired me to make my favourite snack...
Ritz crackers with pieces of chopped up smoked streaky bacon on the top (raw). Drizzle maple syrup on the top of them, couple of chilli flakes and bung them in the air fryer for about 8 mins.
You're welcome 😁

Jeez I'm glad I read to the end of your post - I was thinking YOU CAN'T EAT RAW BACON!
Sounds right up my street tbf!

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...

Thats exactly how I felt too!

My favourite snack is chocolate cornflake cluster bites. Think I actually have an addiction. They are definitely the reason I need to lose weight, can’t just eat a couple have to scoff the whole bloody box!

I empathise. Other than Twix, those M and S chocolate rolls in a tub. Impossible to eat just one, or two, or, indeed three...

Apples.
My partner moaned this evening that there was a pack of 6 in the fridge this morning, now there are 2. I was reliably informed that eating 4 apples in a day is for horses and weird people only 😂😂

Newname71 · 23/08/2024 23:50

French stick with proper butter, quartered vine tomatoes and cubes of extra mature cheddar, topped with pink pickled onions from Aldi.
im salivating now 😂

lollyPaloozah · 23/08/2024 23:52

My current snack obsessions:

longley farm full fat cottage cheese just from the tub, with loads of black pitted olives.

water biscuits with Stilton

just a pack of popadoms on their own or dipped in mango chutney (or caramelised onion chutney/ branston pickle if that’s all we have 😂)

cubes of cheddar cheese with canned pineapple chunks (retro vibes)

picked gherkins dipped in cream cheese or caramelised onion hummus.

Livinginaclock · 23/08/2024 23:53

Crisps, always crisps.

Newname71 · 23/08/2024 23:53

Notmollybutdolly · 23/08/2024 20:50

also any kind of toast with at least half an inch of lurpak. And I like to wait until the toast has cooled down so the butter doesn’t melt too much mmmmm

My mum calls this boarding house toast!
It’s the way I like mine too .

OverthinkingRogue · 23/08/2024 23:55

Salted peanuts, i unashamedly eat around 800g of salted nuts every week.

Nottogetapenny · 23/08/2024 23:56

Black Pepper ryvitas, with a dairylea cheese triangle and sliced tomato on top, with a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Delicious! and not to many calories.

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

Definitely trying this

Boredshitless1 · 24/08/2024 00:03

Cream crackers,marmite and cheese…absolutely amazing.

You can be in my club - mine is dairy milk wholenut.

Top tip - if you eat a twix and then immediately eat a pack of cheese crisps (especially the posh really cheesy ones - like them tyrells ones) it's a taste sensation.

Just try it. Trust me.

Ooh that’s just reminded me. A Kitkat followed by golden wonder cheese and onion! Amazing

Fruit. At the moment nectarines.. but it changes..

Dunnoburt · 24/08/2024 00:39

Tiger bread and houmous.......neither of which I have in stock 😩

MsLavender · 24/08/2024 00:42

I don't think I've ever read a thread that's made me feel more unhealthy!

Walkers Max Jalapeno and Cheese crisps with sour cream and chive dip is my favourite. Also love spicy peperami, mini babybel, Kinder Bueno, Dairlea Jumbo Tubes and Walkers French Fries Worcester Sauce flavour!

Justalittlenaughty · 24/08/2024 03:49

louderthan · 23/08/2024 20:19

Obsessed with this houmous at the moment. Has to be the jalapeño one.

Where stocks it please
?

LindorDoubleChoc · 24/08/2024 05:47

Cheddars biscuits (the original large ones, not the minis) spread with Philadelphia cheese.

Marmite rice cakes with butter and peanut butter.

M&S sweet potato tortilla chips with guacamole.

Cold bolognese sauce on torn up crusty white bread, olives in cold vodka, milk chocolate covered caramels, Stilton on water biscuits with a glass of port, a couple of scoops of good quality vanilla ice cream with warmed chocolate sauce...
