I try really hard not to snack. Lately I've been snacking on cheese balls (they are like Cheetos). I finally got rid of the candy that I like. I'm a sucker for jelly beans, spice drops and spearmint leaves. I used to down a bag of Tostito Chips; but they're much too salty for me; and I had a habit of Kettle Corn for a while but quit that. I had quit the snacking habit up until about 6 months ago. Bad Linda! I need to stop! Well, maybe after the holidays!
The list of snacks is almost endless: cookies, cheese and crackers, popcorn, candy, nuts, potato chips, pretzels, fruit, olives and on and on.
Are you a snacker? What are your favorite snacks?

I have a serious weakness when it comes to chocolate. And cake. I will do anything for cake.

Sometimes I snack instead of eating a meal. It just depends on whether I feel like cooking or not. I used to keep shelled pecans in my bedroom closet along with candy of two or three different types and chips or cookies. But, since the doctor started saying my kidneys were having problems, I've stopped eating pecans and chips. I still have Milky Way bars in the closet and Sweet Tarts... (I have the little round Sweet Tarts and will suck on two or three of them late at night while I'm on myLot/watching YT videos.)
I'm trying to only drink water instead of having soda. (I can't have artificial sweeteners because they make me throw up... so fake soda is a no-no for me.)

I love Milky Ways. Hubs drinks way too much sugared pop.

@LindaOHio I actually prefer Snickers but since I'm not supposed to eat nuts, I eat Milky Way or Three Musketeers...
My doctor asked me today how much water I drink in a 24 hour period... I drink about a gallon and a half a day... She was happy with that.

That's smart thinking, Amber. I know I do better if I just don't even bring any of it home.
Over the holiday time, my family likes the homemade party mix with the cereals, pretzels, nuts, etc. Oh, so good...I will have to indulge in it just a bit when I make it.

I know what you mean. I keep my favorite candy out of the house most of the time.

@LindaOHio We have interesting conversations in the store sometimes. If I hem and haw about getting a bag of chips my wife will usually say, "Well, if you want 'em just get 'em," to which I reply, "But then I will just eat them."
She'll say, "Isn't that the point?" To which I reply, "The point is to keep them in the store so I DON'T eat them." lol

That's a pretty tough choice lol. I like to snack on pretty much anything I have. But my favorite is nuts when I have them

I love popcorn for a snack. Really anything salty I am there..but trying to tow the line on those. It makes my BP rise. Besides..in the evening is probably not the right time to be snacking on them. I like fruit as a snack too.

Grapes, Fiber One brownies, or frozen yogurt bars. Low points, high flavor.

I like eating caramelized banana and jackfruit wrap. I don't know what people call it in English, but here in the Philippines, we call it "Turon." It's fried banana and jackfruit wrapped in a spring roll wrapper and friend with brown sugar. I always eat it every day with a black coffee at 3 pm.

I'm a sucker for anything with chocolate in it. Right now I have a jar of salted chocolate caramels sitting on my desk at work. I'm being really good though, I will only allow myself to eat one per day!
