PrintFavorite naughty snack.
There is a liquor store on my street which would be pretty horrendous if I was an alcoholic, but it's proving to be pretty horrendous despite my lack of alcohol enthusiasm. I eat pretty healthily, so on most days I allow myself a "treat." Said treat will sometimes be Mochi, that Japanese ice cream or a small handful of my favorite nuts or some cheese and crackers or whatever. Three or four times a week I find myself walking to the liquor store under the guise of buying something to drink, most days I make it out with just drinks. On some days, like earlier tonight, I walk out with a "treat" that I would never buy at a regular market. I guess it's because your choices are so limited when you're picking out a snack at a liquor store, but I was just wondering: When you're looking to eat a snack that's a little on the naughty side, what do you choose? I usually go for crunchy/salty/cheesy/savory things. In case anyone was wondering, I walked out of the liquor store tonight with a mini canister of Pringles Sour Cream & Onion chips. Gross? Maybe. Weirdly delicious? For sure.

Nutella off a spoon. (I'll go stand in the corner now.)

No worries, chiff0nade, I could eat an entire container of the stuff in one sitting if I had any balls. Since I'm a woman, I don't foresee that happening any time soon though.

I am definitely in the "crunchy/salty/cheesy/savory things" camp. My guiltiest pleasure is potato chips with a sour cream onion dip. Mmmm.

Those hideous cheesey -pouf things, Chee-tos (fried NOT baked). Or an entire bag of dill-pickle flavored pototo chips.

Peanut butter off a fork - I've tried it with a spoon, but that seems a bit too desperate. I'm sure this is my OCD coming out full force, but I don't "double-dip" the fork. If I want another forkful, I get another clean fork.

I have to admit I love micro popcorn, which isnt really naughty till you realize I intentionally nuke it too long, I love the taste of burned popcorn, thankfully I only do this at home, if I worked in an office they would probably lynch me. (heading to the corner with Chiff now)

I'm with LibraryLady. Crunch, salty and, ideally, somewhat GREASY. Chips, salted nuts, fries, onion rings.

I love the sweet maui onion potato chips that come in the purple bag. They're definitely my guilty pleasure.

McDonald's fries dipped in one of their chocolate shakes. It ain't pretty, but oh my! it tastes good.

potato chips!!!! And maybe some nuts. If I am in a sweet mood and I have some cookies which are homemade (loathe store-bought) then I will go for that.

Fritos with Helluva Good Onion Dip. I can't look myself in the mirror for days afterwards - thankfully, I only buckle about once a year (twice if it's a really rough year)!
