I'm hungry! I always want a snack in the afternoons at work, it just helps the day go by quicker and I usually need the energy in the late afternoon. I try not to eat too much junk food, right now I have low fat crackers and fruit leather to choose from. Anyone else have a stash of snacks at your desk? What do you keep in there? :D

I used to stash chips and chocolates, but since I started eating healthy, I don't anymore. But, I pack up on fruits, vegetable salad, or carrots. Sometimes I also make a healthy sandwich.

Oh, sometimes I also have nuts and seeds like roasted cashew, or peanut, and my favorites - sunflower seed and pumpkin seed.

No stash right now. Just my packed lunch of chicken with sweetpeas! and snack of fresh veggie salad. No more chips and chocolates for me. And no time to buy roasted nuts and seeds.

I just made my hubby a care package as he is often stuck at work and knowing him, he "forgets" to eat sometimes. So I gave him a bag of stuff to stash in his desk. I gave him a variety of fruit bars, granola bars, and nuts. I didn't pack any perishables because they may go bad if he doesn't get to them . . . and besides I like to give him packaged items because you never know what critters can lurk in those drawers at night.

Good discussion! I am glad that there are many people who feel like me! Well, whenever I feel hungry I take a break and I go to the pantry along with my team mate. I generally take a lemon tea or a packet of lays chips. If I am very hungry, I have a samosa or sweet bun. Else, I generally prefer having some beverages like tea or coffee and get back to work!

I eat snacks twice a day when I was still working in an office. I eat before lunch and then a few hours after lunch. I needed the energy cause I teach a lot of students and their skills are stressful so I need to have all that energy to survive the day.

Let me check on my portable cabinet.... There are a couple of folders, papers, clips..hmmm looks like they all are not edible. Oh, I saw some candies given by my colleagues on their local and foreign travels. I didn't find myself eating them. I hope they are not yet expired. I currently have a Kit Kat chocolate bar given yesterday by my office mate. I'll eat it later. I have nuts in here too. Oh, I don't have a stock of biscuits. I'll see that it is on my weekly grocery list. That's basically it.

when i was still working, i used to have sachets of my favorite flavored coffee in my drawers. it doesn't only served as snack but it keeps me awake at work especially during siesta hours in the afternoon. can't let an afternoon pass without it.
