Sitting in the doorway of my tent in the dark, somewhere in France,. shelling pistachios and a beer to hand. Who cares if it is raining. Or that there is another days cycling to come. (Do you think that they are truly addictive ? :) )

For me it is anything mixed nuts, hands down.

A close second is Keebler pecan sandie cookies. I will set and eat the whole bag at a time!

Blue Diamond Wasabi & Soy almonds. I have to restrain myself from eating the entire can in one sitting.

My local Costco sells shelled pistachios in a bag and I could just keep eating every last one.

I wish there were more wasabi flavoured snack foods around.

Lots of wasabi snacks around here. Peas, peanuts, soy beans, potato chips.

I went through a phase of going overboard with the wasabi peanuts, but haven't had any in a while.

The soy beans were imaginatively labelled on the packaging, though. I mean, "Get to the point!"

A friend of mine returned from a trip to Hong Kong early last year and brought me back a bag of wasabi pistachios. They were one of the best snacks I'd ever tasted. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find them around here. I've been wondering how hard it would be to make my own.

I just don't want to look back and think "I could have eaten that."

Unsupervised, rebellious, radical agrarian experimenter, minimalist penny-pincher, and adventurous cook. Crotchety, cantankerous, terse curmudgeon, non-conformist, and contrarian who questions everything!

That has got to be my favorite chips, Pringles. As the advertisements says, once you pop you can't stop. I can finish the entire can within several minutes especially if I'm watching TV or working.

I am sure they have some additive that makes them addictive.
