Coconut milk is one of the most fatty, caloric things on the planet. I don't know about coconut-based ice cream, but when I cook with coconut milk I always use the low-fat version and it still adds mucho calories to a meal. It's delicious though.

coconut milk is of the gods. is super rich & fatty though. a friend of mine who was crazy about it once wanted to eat just the "cream", the solids that separate out if the can sits for a while. was delicious, but we both felt kind of sick after just a bite.

Every time I eat something with coconut milk in it, I'm full for minimum 6 hours

My favourite snack these days is avocado with soy sauce on it

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:44 (eleven years ago) link

Tho tbh I don't really believe in snacks

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:44 (eleven years ago) link

what abt only snacks

lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:45 (eleven years ago) link

It's a belief that sometimes causes me problems... blood-sugar-related anger problems... so I try to remember to put some almonds in my purse or something.

lunch is usually what some might consider a snack. Like half an avocado and some cheese/meat. It's a meal! Calorically/nutritionally.

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:48 (eleven years ago) link

Lunch is truly the most boring and utilitarian of meals imo so might as well make it a snack.

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:49 (eleven years ago) link

really though, snacks and non-sustainable resource extraction are the downfall of western civilization

snacks are life

Snacks are for little kids and bored people on airplanes

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:58 (eleven years ago) link

snacks are snacks all over the world

snacks are for fat people in offices and sad people late in the night

The Merch Seat (admrl), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 22:59 (eleven years ago) link

I would accept a a gin and tonic or a beer as a snack

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:01 (eleven years ago) link

"half an avocado and some cheese/meat. It's a meal!"

that's like something out of dickens if dickens went to UCSB for undergrad.

if i go into the kitchen on a whim and eat a handful of almonds or a bunch of grapes, it is a snack. i am in favor of snacks.

contenderizer, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:05 (eleven years ago) link

hi i am a fat person in an office

avocado/fruit/kale/eggs/pork shoulder is like 90% of my current diet

lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:06 (eleven years ago) link

the other 10% is hummus and baby carrots

lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:06 (eleven years ago) link

I also make protein shakes

The Merch Seat (admrl), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:07 (eleven years ago) link

lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:07 (eleven years ago) link

^^^way to do

Team Safeword (Abbbottt), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:12 (eleven years ago) link

baby carrots taste like nothing! I think they are made out of the worst carrots and then soaked in preservative-laced water to boost colour + remove all flavour (citation needed)

otm japan = best snacks

lag∞n, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:15 (eleven years ago) link

The Merch Seat (admrl), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:15 (eleven years ago) link

haha when I told a friend of mine that I didn't believe in baby carrots he was mildly shocked and said "but they're so cute; they're babies!!"

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:17 (eleven years ago) link

I said "you are being lied to."

That's not true, I don't like snacks.

They're regular carrots cut into bits and then beveled, which is also how human babies are made.

every time i go to the supermarket i ~almost~ get suckered into buying those baby zucch and baby sunburst squash and baby cauli - they're so TINY AND CUTE!!! but they're like 5x the price of normal size veg

just1n3, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:23 (eleven years ago) link

they had miniature corn at the co-op the other day, in tiny husks and everything!

baby carrots are awesome

so are snacks

I would pass out if I didn't have something in the afternoon. :(

this may qualify us for some kind of death camp apparently

stay tuned :)

In all honesty, I eat every 4 to 5 hours, so if I know I'm not eating dinner until 8 I will prob eat a snack at 4 or so but if I'm not eating until 6/7, I won't have a snack. And if I'm out and about, gah, that is why I need to remember to put almonds in my bag.

obliquity of the ecliptic (rrrobyn), Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:30 (eleven years ago) link

Seriously though I don't understand non-snackers. I eat lunch around 12:30 or 1 most days and by 4 I am starving. If I don't have something small then I'd have a headache by 5. Maybe I'm eating the wrong things or at the wrong times or something. idk.

do you guys wish that snacking wasn't allowed inside so you could take snack breaks the same way smokers get to take smoke breaks? you get to lean against the building with shades on bumming baby carrots from a coworker all saying you gotta quit someday.

Philip Nunez, Tuesday, 17 July 2012 23:39 (eleven years ago) link

baby carrots + hummus all the way, no brakes. i made some hummus and bought baby carrots the other day so i have some waiting for me right now! i know they are weird repurposed and overpackaged carrot bits, but still i love them. actual carrots are good too.
