healthy snack ideas

<3

I went up to north GA last weekend and bought half a peck of Granny Smith apples and HOLY GOD are they delicious. Fruit is nature's candy!

very good popcorn topping: old bay seasoning

interesting!

VG which one of us is Aladdin?

me, because I want the pet monkey

if that's okay with u

It's not ok with me - I want the pet monkey. :(

Actually, never mind. I already pretty much have a pet monkey. You can have that one, it's OK.

you can have the pet monkey, I'll just have those cool pants

I'm just in this for that midriff! Perfect.

your hair has grown so much!

It's the chickpeas!

update: turns out I'm not huge on nutritional yeast. it has a weird flavor I'm not into

onto balsamic vinegar, and possibly vegemite :D

chili powder & cinnamon on popcorn = yum

Oh that sounds good.

Best yonanas so far might be just with walnuts and maple syrup drizzled on.

nutella + fronanas tasted fine but again did not mask the banana taste, not that bananas + nutella isn't a bad combo, but i want to trick someone.

also anything + nutella is probably not a very healthy snack idea.

which is a shame because its' soooooooooo delicious

maybe invent a nutella substitute that has the texture of nutella but kinda really tastes like bananas?

cherry pie larabars are yum

today i learned that banana bread larabars are D:
so gross

oh and I learned about eating radishes today and I love them

radish pro-tip: raw french breakfast radishes dipped in soft butter and salt. Or thin-sliced radishes on buttered toast. With salt.

salt on anything is my fav healthy snack

smoked salt on radishes: oh tis the bomb

radishes on toast? mind blown & open to exciting taste sensation!

Well OK see the way I like it is for the toast to cool enough that the butter doesn't melt, it is just soft and supports the thinly sliced radishes so they don't fall into your lap as you nom

oh I wouldn't like it that way, I don't really like eating unmelted/softened butter, it makes me queasy

This is my favourite way to eat Marmite - a think layer on a slick of not-melted butter on cooled-down toast.

has to be melted butter for me with vegemite

i used to like making 'worms' as a kid on salada crackers with vegemite and softened butter, squeezing til it poked out of the holes.

but now? nope. I don't even have butter on rolls at a restaurant unless the roll is warm enough to melt the butter.

salt on anything is my fav healthy snack

+1, subbing vegemite for marmite

finally making progress on this shit. many months ago, sometime last year, i stopped going to 7-eleven. that means slurpees are out. sometime last month i mostly gave up sugary stuff. i also gave up soda, and i've only had a small bit of it since i did that. once. there's still room for improvement but it's much better than it was when i started this thread

what are yr favorite healthy snacks atm?

my favorite highway (after the ks)

ha, yeah. I cut out most sugars about two months ago, but then found myself stumbling downstairs in the middle of the night to inhale half a bag of goldfish crackers or something.

fuck dudes i relapsed hard on some cheez-its recently, not a pretty scene

I'm sure every scene you're in is pretty, dude.

this is a good thing though b/c i was really seeing the negative effects of the shit i was consuming, especially the soda

Soda is the worst thing on the planet

my new favs are zing bars - the choc/pb, hazelnut/choc, choc/cashew/coconut, are all really good and of all the protein/energy bars i've tried, they're the most candy bar-tasting (extremely important to me) while still containing nutritious ingredients.

I need to give up soda. I'm a caffeine junkie who doesn't like coffee so it's going to be hard.

I need to give up soda. The good news is I'm making some progress with coffee enjoyment. In the form of lattes.

i bought a cup of coffee yesterday from an italian place and it struck me that i probably shouldn't ask for 'a latte' given that it just means milk to an italian and in italy itself you would get exactly that

I just snacked on some peaches and avocados w/lime juice, hot sauce & olive oil. Recommended.

ok that sounds dope as hell.

Except avocados scare me. I still can't strike a balance between, "oh, I've got to let these ripen up" and "fuck, I have a rotten avocado."

avocados are amazing. i just eat them with a spoon with nothing added.
