What do you all like to eat for snacks?
I am munching on some Cabot cheese right now, Vermont Sharp.

Baby carrots, good for the eyes and crunchy. Gives a little energy also. Apples, bananas etc...
Sargento Pepper Jack cheese extra thin slices are very good. New product just out. I think they have 40 calories per slice. Otherwise, you can get in trouble with cheese, as far as nutrition goes. Of course I had pizza for lunch so now I have to watch it.

I just put away some Mozzarella cheese. Was easier to eat than the cheddar.
Love sharp cheddar. But these days I like a small amount of "Kerry Gold", imported cheddar. Mmm...
Our local competition to Costco is BJ's and they have these rice chips we are simply addicted to. At $5 a bag I wish we'd cut back: I think we make it 3 days at best on a bag.
Myself, I like a small plate with a few peanuts (the roasted "sea salt" Planters variety), aforementioned Kerry gold, and rice chips. About a half serving of each. Maybe with some crasiens. Although some apple wedges go good. Some cheap pinot grigio to round it. Maybe while watching Top Gear [the UK version of course], makes for a proper evening. Maybe Foyles War.
During the day hours I'll either do some Chobani yougurt or Thomas Lite Hearty English muffins, lots of fiber, little calories. I usually don't bother with toasting or butter.

Beef jerky and trail mix
Growing up sometimes we had ants on a log. Celery, with peanut butter filled in the middle, then raisins on the PB.
Nori. Get it at Costco.
https://www.aldi.us/en/weekly-specials/s...-german-breads/ toast a slice, sprinkle some jalapeno olive oil, cut into dice size pieces and eat like chips. Awesome. This bread keeps for months in the basement. I have two or three cases. Also, the chest freezer has a few cases. If old man winter throws us a curve, we have the wood stove for toasting and bread for the long haul.

Lately apples. It was cheese & sausage before my cholesterol started to creep up.
this is a great thread...I typically like any kind of leftovers...mashes potatoes, meat, soup, cold or hot it's all good... If I'm being lazy I just "eat" coffee

Wow, great tip thanks. Anything else at aldi's you like? That's a great deal on bread esp if it's good.

Carrots are good, and healthy. I also have chips and salsa, or pretzel sticks, but these aren't very healthy.
I've always wanted to try some of those German breads, one of these days I'll buy a package.
Occasionally I'll get some hummus and chips to go with it.
Of course during the summer months I do ice creams. Hey, here's a question: my brother lives down in Texas, and when he's up he makes it a point to get hard serve ice cream. He says it's a rarity down there. Is that true? I can't remember the last time I had soft serve ice cream.

Chocolate covered almonds, ketchup dipped veggie straws, animal crackers, highly flavored goldfish crackers, cheezy popcorn chips, various baked flavored potato chips, pretzels dipped in mustard.
Smoked bacon, smoked cheese, anything salty.
Big fan of dried cranberries. IMO they're 10x better than any candy I've had. I can make myself sick off of a bag of those.
Cucumber slices and cherry/grape tomatoes are some of my other favorites.
But if we want to talk about not so great choices, I'd go for some beef stick or Lebanon bologna with some Colby jack or cheddar. Also, I'm guilty of enjoying some of the super horrible for you Slim Jims.

I eat Yogurt every day. Infact I could not imagine my life without good greek yogurt. I think it is once of my top choices for sure. I am bad with snacks though otherwise, I rarely have snacks. (I believe it's a good way to eat, often but little)
