Snacking while eGulleting... (Part 2)

Cheese balls!
We found this jar in a local shop and got a great price on it. See we already made a considerable dent in it.

Are those balls of cheese, or cheese balls like cheetohs but in ball-shape?

That's a frickin' huge jar!

I didn't even bother to search the 854 previous posts on this topic because I'm sure nobody has ever written:

I'm eating Saltines with Velveeta and Miso Paste!

Rona, just saw your post today. Yes they were ball-shaped cheetos. T'was so good and that huge jar didn't last long.

Now I am snacking on Nestle Crunch bars.

PS. Nargi, when I was sick with severe sinusitis last week that came with a pounding headache and face-ache (my lower sinus was so infected it made my cheek swollen), reading eGullet was the a major way for me to keep my mind off the constant pain. Loyal eGulleteer here too.

I'm sure this will signify me as a complete freak, but when I was a little kid, I used to eat Chee-tos balls with white vinegar. I don't know why, but I loved it... and I hid it from everyone. Maybe I was subconsciously aware of the oddity of it all.

I'm currently snacking on California Chip's "Earthquake" potato chips. They're a combination of salty and sour (like a salt & vinegar chip) but they also have just a touch of sweetness to them. So it's salty, sweet & sour, all in one chip. Very addicting.

Cracked pepper and olive oil Triscuits with a piece of provolone on top. Mmm.

Chocolate chip banana loaf from Capers (Whole Foods). Normally I'd make my own, but I (klutz) slipped on some ice a few weeks ago and not only broke my arm, but also sprained my knee. So I'm using my only good hand to crutch. No free hands for carrying around ingredients.

I just found out I am grossly anemic :shock: (too bad there is no really pale smilie) so I am snacking on an iron pill and a pile of satumas

yes I agree with the idea of reading Egullet to helping a food lover recover from many things... I am very appreciative

it is good medicine!

Today it's Feridies Garlic Peanuts. They were a gift from my brother and his wife so I'm not sure where they bought them but if I were a betting man I'd say they got them from Cost Plus World Market.

Wow. These are some of the crunchiest canned peanuts I've ever eaten. I had the Cajun flavor (not too hot...just a litle heat) a month or so ago and they were just as crunchy.

The garlic flavor is shocking. I say "shocking" because it's so IN YOUR FACE. And it's not a nice mellow roasted garlic flavor. It's like they just sliced up a fresh clove of garlic and somehow put that into powder form and dusted the peanuts with it. At first, I was taken aback by the intensity of the garlic. And then I had to have another handful....and then another and so on. Thumbs up!

And the garlic stays with you long after you've eaten the peanuts. :laugh: Thank goodness for Altoids!

Homemade Bico (Filipino sticky rice cake). I went to a friend's birthday party and the host made bico with glutinous rice, coconut cream, sugar and ginger juice. Ummmm, so yummy.

Right now I am snacking on some low fat popcorn. My favorite is when I sprinkle a little salt and pepper on it. I work on behalf of Snapple and promote their new Antioxidant Water, so that is my drink of choice right now. :raz: It is sooo tasty! The light fruity flavor is the perfect combination with the salty popcorn. It is definitely my snack of choice these days.

baked lays and a bar of Dove dark chocolate.

The problem is: I'll go through the entire bar without realizing it before I finish browsing.

Flirting with possible GI consequences (*see below) by eating a yummy mishmash of leftovers - edamamme salad tossed with cherry tomatoes tossed with marinated cooked shrimp.

*And its been in my fridge waiting for consumption for nearly a week, including a several hour stint at room temperature.

Hee.

A honey whole wheat bagel from Einstein Bagels. NO honey flavor ....just a really really good bagel (my favorite kind from einsteins) - heavy on the plain cream cheese. toasted of course. MMMM

***Okay okay, my second honey whole wheat bagel,....hehe

A mini Snickers ice cream bar. It's like a chocolate caramel peanut sundae in a tiny package.

Red Vines "licorice" from the vending machine here at work. Surprisingly soft and fresh...not quite the hard shoe leather I was expecting from a vending machine.
