Peanut butter and crispy bacon (I’m talkin’ thick cut from a cast iron skillet crispy) on whole wheat toast with a “real” coke. YUM! Really, try it! ;j ---

> [@Askia](#): > > Boiled peanuts. > > Fried chicken livers. > > St. Louis gooeybutter. MMMMM - boiled peanuts… right up there with a bag of peanuts poured into a cold coca cola (but it’s GOT to be in a very cold green glass bottle)… I’m hungry now - off to fry some bacon. Heeee heeeeee! 😃 ---

> [@Nightwatch Trailer](#): > > Anyone else put Doritos and other corn/potato chips on sandwiches? Yum. I used to do that as a kid, putting regular potato chips on a PBJ sandwich. I still do it, occasionally, whenever I feel a need for some child-like comfort food. ---

I made the happy accidental discovery the other day of “hint of lime” tostitos dipped in…vanilla ice cream. And then immediately banned it from my apartment since I _like_ being the weight that I am… ---

Hmmm…one more entry from the chapter called “Why it’s a good thing I live alone”. 😃 One of my favorite snacks is sardines in olive oil…mush them up with minced onion, crushed saltines and some lemon juice. Add a bit of salt/pepper. Mmmmm… ---

I could live with you, **Jadis**. That sounds yummy. What do you eat it on? Just with a spoon? Maybe serve it on some saltines, rather than using crushed saltines… quite tasty. ---

A Frito and bolonga sandwich. With Miracle Whip. ---

My fave snack of the moment is cottage cheese with maple syrup. mmm… ---

I also put chips on sandwiches, except PB&J. Although, the squishier the sandwich ingredient the better it is with chips, tuna salad is the best. I also like boiled peanuts, I was introduced to them by some friends at a sci-fi con which involved drinking lots of alcohol. Other con food we ate was pickled okra with squeeze cheese on a triscuit. I decided to try it when sober and found I still liked it and sometimes just snack on the okra by itself. I like sardines, too, but I’ve never tried mashing them up. Might have to try that. ---

I’ve also put potato chips on sandwiches a few times. Pretty good. Cole slaw on sandwiches is tasty, but doesn’t seem that unusual. On long car trips I’ve snacked on potato chips and beef jerky. Like a dehydrated steak and potatoes dinner. My most unusual snack appears on nights when I make rice. Right about when it’s cool enough to put in the refrigerator, but still luke-warm, I’ll eat a spoonful and then take a bite of dark chocolate. ---

> [@BiblioCat](#): > > I could live with you, **Jadis**. > That sounds yummy. What do you eat it on? Just with a spoon? Maybe serve it on some saltines, rather than using crushed saltines… quite tasty. I just eat it right out of the bowl. I never thought of spreading it on the sardines instead of crushing them in there…that could work. I’ll try it tonight. 😉 ---

> [@Krys92gp](#): > > My fave snack of the moment is cottage cheese with maple syrup. mmm… No offense, but that sounds gross. I eat cottage cheese with French dressing, the neon-orange stuff. Started doing that in college. Other people think it’s gross, but I like it. ---

My son was eating Wendy’s french fries dipped in his Frosty (chocolate shake) the other day. Yuk. ---

Kellogs extra crunchy (with fruit) and fruit juice (I only like milk in hot drinks). When I was at college we used to drink an OXO cube crumbled into boiling water with milk. Strangely enough I’ve never wanted to find out if I would still enjoy that. ---

\*cream cheese (not lo-fat) with red plum jam spooned over the top then eaten with Wheat Thins crackers. \*Fresh popped popcorn tossed with tabasco and lime juice. ---

Saltines with margarine. I make little sandwiches out of them. I make chili every few months, and with that comes saltines. I eat far more crackers than I do chili. Ice cream and doritos. (not together, but bite of one, then a bite of another). Also popcorn and M&Ms all mixed up in the same bowl. The latter two are period food. ---

French fries dipped in butterscotch pudding. Mmmm. I adore peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches (although I don’t have them much at all anymore, with all the fat in them!). I have been able to convince exactly zero people to even try one. When I was little, I liked glasses of half Diet Coke and half whole milk. I tried it a few years later and found it disgusting. [sub]And I still really really like cheetos or cheese puffs dipped in chocolate milk.[/sub] ---
