What is your favorite snack food?
My new diet compels me to eat fresh cauliflower and fresh carrots and fresh broccoli with the least fatty French Onion dip I could find to make that bearable, and even use the dip sparingly.

I miss potato chips and I miss chocolate and I miss popcorn and I am going absolutely spare and I am using the word "and" too often once again and I hate it!

And the fun part is, I haven't had a chip or a crisp or a chocolate bar or anything else that's a no-no in a while! Only fat free jell-o instant pudding where they use the cancer causing chemicals instead of sugar... And there I go using "and" again, or do I mean "or" this time...?

And I need to do something to get my mind off of food. I know, sex is a good diversion. Unfortunately, that's not easy to do when you're single and "going through the motion" has become rather tedious over the decades...

Ah well. Back to watching more Star Trek. You know, when Berman does something right, he really shines? Just ignore the bad episodes (1/2 of what he's responsible for) and you've got something endearing and enduring! :D

2. Marinated mushrooms...
antipasto.

Have you considered the games at Shockwave.com, or Popcap.com, or the zone. I've been known to get so sucked-in that I forget dinner.

5. I wont talk about food
Pogo.com is a great game site(free) and if you like slot machines, Simslots.com(also free) is wonderful. Both will keep you from thinking food. Good luck Hypnotoad

7. Deep dish pizza...
cheese on top and inside there would be a whole layer of sausage, pepperoni, and mushrooms. The whole pizza pie has got to have like 2500 calories though. I'd get fat in no time.

11. Cold leftover pizza
sometimes it tastes better the next day when all the flavors meld together into a, well, a zen flavor.

8. snack food
How about fruit? Or, I like to eat tuna salad made with reduced fat mayo, tomatoes, and cucumbers on the wasa light rye crackers. Low fat and good. The Dole Fruit Juice Bars (Frozen section) are good and low calorie.
Good luck!

9. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
Luckily I've been avoiding the 99 Cents Only store lately. They're such a bargain there I stock up and blimp up.

Otherwise:

Little Debbie Fudge Brownies
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Walnuts
Can't think of the name, but it's a brand of ice cream bar coated with chocolate and drenched in nuts. A 12-pack is sometimes dominated in a single day.

When I'm on a health/weight loss kick it's grapes and fruit juice bars.

10. I'm on Atkins
nuts, sunflower seeds, jerky, hard boiled eggs, crystal lite peach tea. I barely even miss junk food. And I've lost 2 clothes sizes in 6 months. I don't weigh. I do cheat with cheeseburgers and fries on occasion (or I would have lost more). I would never do another diet, especially an all veggie one. Ick.

14. Popcorn
My dad's whole family are popcorn fanatics so I grew up with it and really like it. It almost can even be a meal substitute in certain circumstances.
