Snacking is back in style around here. That means I am actually eating more than once a day! I will talk about a few things

I've neglected Nong Shim Onion Rings until recently. I'll say it like this; if you want onion rings, this isn't the right snack. They don't taste, smell or feel like onion rings. Do they taste good? YES! For onion lovers, there isn't quite enough onion in there for me... but I'm the same type of person who LOADS pizzas with onions so I'm a little biased. My brother's girlfriend doesn't like onion rings but loves these, so if you're the same way you might be in luck.~

I have never been crazy about chips until I picked this up at the super market:

riceworks sweet chili rice crisps are really like nothing out there. Infact, my family liked them so much that I never got to try the first bag! I got the chance to pick up another a few days later and I can understand why. Quite good. :)

Last noteworthy item I've tried recently is roasted tomato and olive oil flavoured Triscuits. The flavour is really powerful... but not overpowering. If you've had Triscuits before but thought they were too bland, I'd give these a try. They weren't engulfed as quickly as the riceoworks crisps but they were still really good!

I really liked these before they went extinct in my area:

Beef jerky enough said -_-

The fact that the healthiest, most nature, simple foods (organic, whole gain, etc) are the most expensive makes me very sad.

It is increasingly making obesity (and the associated health effects like diabetes, heart disease, etc) an issue of socio-economic class.

Did I mention that I hate milk?

They're also misleading; 2% Milk is actually about 60% the Fat of normal Milk (~5g; ~3g being saturated down from ~8g / 5g) which leads to about ~34% of the Calories being derived from Fat (~120, ~45 from Fat). The 2% is in reference to "Milk Fat" and Whole Milk is "only" 3.5%. Skim Milk, on the other hand, derives only ~4.65% Calories from Fat (~85, ~4 from Fat).

...I've done memorized this since it took so much effort to tell the family that "2% Milk" isn't even close to fat-free/non-fat. I actually prefer Skim Milk though I'm with Zeta on the "bleh milk" train. I use it for cereals and fluffing my scrambled eggs. That's about it~
