I used to like to douse Ivar's french fries with Tabasco so no one would try and take them from me and it worked.

In my younger years when I enjoyed a bit of the herb, my favorite snack was simple: Open refrigerator, unhinge jaw, dump contents of refrigerator into mouth.

I was trying to decide whether my favorite was plums or peaches, :-P.

Grilled cheese and tomato sandwich, followed by the rest of the fridge

@lemonfair: LOL you beat me to the pun! :)

Back in the day I used to live next door to a small hogie shop. When not imbibing those hogies were just nasty, but with a head full of hippie lettuce they were the best things I ever ate :o

Baskin Robbins used to have this honey flavored ice cream with a fudge swirl and bits of sea foam candy in it one summer, I think I was the only person eating it and ate about 5 gallons of it! I miss those good old days and that good old faster metabolism!
honeywheat at 11:00AM on 08/16/09
In the day, it was two Big Macs, large fries, coke and a chaser fish sandwich. Then we'd head for the salad bar at Wendy's.

A bologna sandwich on rye with mustard and sweet sandwich pickles. I never eat bologna, but back in the day, I always had these fixin's in the fridge.

a sandwich from PJ's. which is a huge sandwich with ANYTHING you want on it. corn dogs. chicken fingers. mac and cheese. fried ravioli. mozzarella sticks. french fries. anything fried or greasy or delicious, could be put on a sandwich. the BEST for when you have the herb influenced munchies or need to cure a hangover.

Doritos...until the sound of chewing them gets too loud to hear the TV
kathyvegas at 1:19PM on 08/16/09
given that i work in a combination bakery/coffee shop/sandwich shop...my stoner food possibilities are pretty much without limit.
rasellers0 at 1:44PM on 08/16/09
Way back in the early 60s, before Doritos were invented, we'd dip Fritos into leftover chili and wash it down with a bottle of Coke. Ice cream was always good, but homemade chocolate chip cookies were the best. From what I understand, they still are.
A couple of my sons (OMG! One-third of my children are stoners!) swear by White Castle. Unfortunately, they live outside of Seattle and there are no Porcelain Palaces in the entire state of WA, so they've had to make do with frozen sliders from the grocery store.
betteirene at 6:07PM on 08/16/09
for me it was suzie Q's, doritos and a coke. klondike bars were pretty good to. one time we bought about 30 dollars worth of chinese and a container of cookies and creme ice cream cut it in half and ate every bite. that wasn't a good choice. lol
dearrie at 7:39PM on 08/16/09
there are so many pictures of me passed out mid-eating.
heavymetalpizzaparty at 11:55PM on 08/16/09
going to a bbq stoned is the best, or the movies. i've eaten popcorn 2 the puking point. you guys made me hungry. pancakes too! like an ihop breakfast. you walk away feeling like your up to your lungs in it. i dont like being full to the point of taking 2 days to properly digest but sometimes it happens. weed4ever!
heavymetalpizzaparty at 11:57PM on 08/16/09
breakfast burritos - there was one place in particular in college that delivered until 3 in the morning, and it came with mushrooms and potatoes (as well as eggs and cheese, of course) and it was massive and delicious and the tomatillo salsa was the best...never actually had it for breakfast, of course, only ever in the wee hours...but i'm getting so hungry for it now!
billyburgwife at 12:25AM on 08/17/09
@heavymetal - awesome question! I'll have to keep the answers and experiment *smiles with anticipation*
Jack Black insists that the Dorrito Burrito is the way to go. Cheese beef, and bean burrito: then add your dorritos once it's heated. NOM NOM NOM...I'd probably dip it in Ranch and Nacho Cheese!
I'd have to say that pizza-pops satisfy my after-session snackings. Though fried perogies work too, and also loaded nachos
...dangerious cobos!
hungrychristel at 11:28AM on 08/17/09
excuse me: "combos". oops
hungrychristel at 11:32AM on 08/17/09
Whoa, looks like we have some stoned typing going on :P
@heavymetal - lol, there's only one picture of me passed out mid-eating, but sadly, it's an early childhood photo that serves to illustrate how slow of an eater I was and not the, uh, results of the recreational activites of my young adulthood so far hahaha.
joyyy at 11:36AM on 08/17/09
mexican can be so good, but again, there's that "severely overstuffed" danger that comes from snacking too stoned, there's no "off" switch so i have to be careful i don't get sick! i always tell myself that everything is delicious after a toke, so why not stick to fruits/etc? the few times i've done that it totally works, but there isn't usually such positive influence around, so things like the "pizza sandwich" happen sometimes - friends of mine made a turkey bacon club with the mayo & all on two slices of cold pizza...half of us puked from the sheer intensity.
heavymetalpizzaparty at 11:40AM on 08/17/09
@joyyy there's still time for a photo op! the pics of me are all with a hand in a giant bag of chips, or in a box of cereal. wish there was a place on here i could post it, i have my shoes and jacket on still, hahahaha....
heavymetalpizzaparty at 11:41AM on 08/17/09
I still get teased about a grad school xmas party in which I devoured about 6 cups of chex mix only to find an unopened bag of chocolate truffles someone had given to the hostess. They were not meant to be opened at the party. Word has it they found me with chocolate on my face 'hiding' beside the couch. When the g/f who was crashing at my place and I got home we destroyed some bagels and cream cheese. By some I mean...six.
mmmm....chex mix. *drool*
My resistance is a bit stronger now. Back in those days I was a smoker and VERY occasional toker. I made the mistake of hauling on that little 'j' like it was a cigarette. I'm smarter now, and a non-smoker. I usually have small bowl of ice cream, but I still exclaim to all and sundry that 'ICE CREAM IS AWESOME!'
BananaMonkey at 12:03PM on 08/17/09
Cherry dip soft serve.
eeels at 3:03PM on 08/17/09
and here i was thinking peaches, plums, nectarines, or cherries... and you say grilled cheese.
blizcheetah at 6:30PM on 08/17/09
I crave chocolate under these circumstances, though I crave chocolate under normal circumstances too. I love to keep some of my own chocolate chip cookie dough in the freezer, just in case... chips and dip is always a great munchy treat too... got the salty and got the sweet..
jason at 8:18AM on 08/18/09
I'm with Chiffonade. Although my most recent foray was to the Fort Greene Flea market...recent? er uhh......
bobbob at 10:22AM on 08/18/09
My friends and I used to have Wednesdays off from school and work, so if you were looking for us on a Wednesday afternoon, you'd know we could be found at the $4.50 lunch buffet at the Mexican restaurant. Without fail.
Kerosena at 10:40AM on 08/18/09
In college I would take a pie crust, pour in jello (preferably cherry), let it set, then smother the rest of the crust to the top with cool whip. It was perfectly sweet and juicy and just slid down with teeth needed!
Some munchies like pretzels tend to be a problem b/c your mouth is dry - not an issue here!
JBrooks at 5:16PM on 08/18/09
You can pretty much put anything in front of stoned people and they will eat it, its why I make a huge veggie tray for my hubby and his friends so they wont eat crap. Nothing better than hearing the munching sounds of 4 guys eating carrots, celery, squash, tomatoes, and zucchini instead of chips and god knows what else! I of course make a big thing of fat free ranch dressing to dip it in (they dont know the diff)
I bet they feel better in the morning also.
CATERPILLARGIRL at 5:33PM on 08/18/09
@caterpillargirl - awesome, hehehe.
joyyy at 5:56PM on 08/18/09
first day in amsterdam, ate space cake and smoked a couple of fat blunts. then we went to a pub and ordered EVERYTHING on the menu. it was bad: chicken nuggets, eggplant fritters, cheese and sausage, hot chocolate, beer, apple pie a la mode and STILL got croissants and stopped at the grocery store on the way back to our houseboat. we got licorice, gummy bears, roast chicken flavored potato chips, chocolate bars, 3 kinds of gouda...you know, just in case we got hungry later. and we ate ALL OF IT as soon as we got to a place we could sit.
not my proudest day. by far.
dmarina at 7:56PM on 08/18/09
sweet n salty chex mix despite the cotton mouth!!
violetcassis at 3:33PM on 08/21/09
Ha, I remember one 4/20 I was working in the mall, and I stopped by my friend's for some pre-work festivities. I got to the mall, and stopped by Paradise Bakery for a cookie before heading to work. Seriously, Best Snickerdoodle Ever.
meleyna at 3:42PM on 08/21/09
Dear god @marina that is quite a story.....Now I have to commend this post I love a good grilled cheese when I am blazed it really hits the spot with the butter and cheap fast food like satisfaction. Furthermore in High school my favorite high on food was a chicken Caesar salad with blue cheese don't ask why, one would have thought I was pregnant with such a bizarre cravy. Now as a sophisticated 25 year old I enjoy a glass of ice cold skim milk in a frosted glass with perhaps some hummus and tabbouleh on a pita or left over chicken Parmesan or just some cold pasta noodles grabbing violently at them from the open fridge. Not to mention a good dip of the finger in the peanut butter and nutella jars
Timothyrows at 3:45PM on 08/21/09
Anything with ranch dressing, first of all, or honey mustard. My college cafeteria had "4th meal" which was from 9-12, and basically full of fried things and sauces, plus a waffle bar with canned pie toppings and stuff. Also, bugles and cream cheese.
jesswalker9 at 6:17PM on 08/21/09
Popcorn, popped in bacon fat, with parmesan cheese grated over top.

this thread is highlarious.

My sister warned me, after I discovered the Hospitable Plant, that "munchies" had to be the saltiest, fattiest, emptiest calories available. But I've made successful munchies out of salad ... drowned in ranch dressing, it's true.
That said, I do favor juicy-savory-creamy. Barbecue is always good, so is Mexican. Had a delightful burrito filled with chicken in mole rojo that would have made excellent stoner food.
Tonight I made one of Mark Bittman's recipes, Rice Cooked In Onions - basmati rice braised with onions and butter, until the onions begin to caramelize, and then drizzled with cream. Haven't toked up, but there's a lot of it. There might be some left next time I indulge.
gentlyferal at 12:40AM on 08/22/09
Back when I was first getting my irie on, the go to munchies were raspberry coconut zingers and kiwi strawberry snapple, mmm tasty artificial fruit flavors were so good then! I progressed at the worst point in my habit to a 2 foot long "ultimate" hoagie containing roast beef, turkey, ham, salami, bacon, cheese and a little drag through the garden, with a side of waffle fries with cheese whiz... Oh the horrors I put my body through.
@zilli: I now have to try that, never thought about popping corn in bacon fat, sounds yummy

We were smoking in a treehouse at a field party when rumors surfaced that the cops were on the way. How someone knew that, who knows, it was probably just an excuse to end the party. Anyway, we were driving around and I expressed my desire for cheese pizza and chocolate cake. We got a call that a friend of ours was having a birthday party so we stopped by. I walked into the kitchen and no joke there was a huge cheese pizza and her chocolate birthday cake sitting on the counter. I swear I heard angels singing. I ate them simultaneously, a piece of cake in one hand a piece of pizza in the other. They tasted great together at the time...
Other favorites:
Fruit Loops
Philly Cheese Steak Croissant Pockets
Doritos
Golden Grahams
McFlurry
Chipotle burrito
Denny's

I totally forgot, I made some friends at a party once who invited me to their smoke out the next day. They were going to get high and make Thanksgiving dinner. This seemed like the Greatest Idea Ever, but alas, I never got any of their numbers. Funny how someone can be your best friend one night, and the next you can't even remember their name. (Let's just not tell my son that story....)

one night when I was in college, my best guy friend and I were wandering the hallways stoned when we walked past a dorm room where the door was open. Inside was three HUGE clear recycling bags of bagels. We both walked past the door by about five feet before we stopped and looked at each other to make sure we weren't seeing things, and then back tracked and peeked inside the room again. There was a girl sitting on her computer surrounded by these bags. She looked up and we asked her where she got the bagels, she explained that she had just come from a fund raiser where Panera had donated the food and these were the left over the bagels....did we want a bag? so we crashed back into my friends dorm room with a bag of about 100 bagels all of different kinds. He didn't have any cream cheese or peanut butter, but he did have a bottle of ranch dressing. So we spent the night eating bagels covered in ranch dressing.....even the raisin ones.
waterbaby at 4:11PM on 08/22/09
Back in the day, I would eat anything/everything, but always alternate between sweet and salty. AKA an entire bag of potato chips, followed by an entire cake, and then Mom's leftovers...
unpocojmoney at 5:24PM on 08/22/09
Chipotle! I gotta have super-munchies to actually finish one of them bad boys.
thurstondie at 6:48PM on 08/22/09
@unpocojmoney: Try alternating ham and chocolate next time.
gentlyferal at 6:14PM on 08/23/09
@ waterbaby - that made me gag, but i have eaten worse combinations when stoned so to each their own!

...can I go back and edit my response to the canned food thread?
derosa at 8:46PM on 08/23/09
@steamsoldier i LOVE it when food materializes whilst stoned like that! it's called destiny! once at school, i wanted chocolate, and was waiting for the elevator back to my floor and the doors opened and there was a simply wrapped GOLDEN chocolate bar on the floor of the elevator. like no brand or anything. i took this as a "sign" and proceeded to take it off the floor, unwrap, and eat it.
also, on the same note of chocolatey goodness, a few months later of the same year my (stoned) friends and i discovered that the vending machine was spitting out coins after you dropped them in, but REGISTERING AS PAID, so we used the same dime over and over to clean the damn thing out! i remember pressing peanut m&ms into a drake's cake little round pound cake. something about plain butter cake and m&ms...mmmmmmm.....

Stoned Wheat Thins...Awesome, man!
http://www.amazon.com/Stoned-Wheat-Thins-10-6-Ounce-Boxes/dp/B000F9XB7K
# Made with cracked wheat for an extra hearty flavor
Right on, but I'll eat anything when I'm totally blazed!
# No cholesterol or saturated fats
Better snacking material if I'm going to eat a whole box!
# Crispy wheat taste complements your favorite dips and cheeses
Cheese in a can, or my canna-butter hummus? Yeah man, it's all good.
# Made in Canada
Goes great with B.C. bud, bro! Keep it chill.
the_o at 4:17PM on 08/24/09
Chilli cheese fries with pastrami on top and a large Mountain Dew. A side of ranch on the side.
They're delicious at 3AM, but you'll be hating life at 9AM, or whenever you have your morning bowel movement.
