On a logistics note. The rules are really good to have. Because they make the OP really long. When opened the thread I could see Mahaloth’s post. But because I am pure of heart I did not read his posts but instead re sized my browser window and gave what will be the winning answer, unless the rest of you have no taste in snacks.

\*Common wisdom has it that you shouldn’t eat right before going into the pool, much less WHILE in the pool!

I was disappointed to note that GAZPACHO was not, in fact, any of your snack choices.

Now that you bring it up I may have had gazpacho with lunch poolside when I was in Cabo last winter. I never think of gazpacho in the food threads.
