30 to 40 olives. Give it a try, you surely will not regret eating 30 to 40 olives.

Is there a joke I'm missing here? I do this fairly often.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Uhhhh..my dogs duck breast fillets. It's like duck jerky and so much cheaper then buying actual duck. Only ingredient is duck at like 4.99 for 14oz.

Still won't try her pizzle sticks though. (Animal dicks)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You mean it's sold as dog treats?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Not just sold as, it literally is. At least they mentioned human grade so i got that going for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lol the human grade badge... no judgement though, I've tried most of the food I have fed my birds. If you eat it yourself and initially resist sharing with them they will usually start to want some, then eating together with them makes bonding with them go better.

Weird flavored chips from the Asian grocery store.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I have a bag of numb & spicy hotpot flavour waiting for me at home. Also have a bag of takoyaki flavour.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Dried pineapple bits. One ingredient, absolutely delicious, sweet as candy. You can buy it from the bulk bins at the grocery for cheap

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cheese toasties.

I remember they're a thing every couple years, eat way too many for a couple months, then grt sick of them and rinse and repeat.

Fuck I love cheese toasties.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's the British version of grilled cheese sandwich, right? No argument from me, they're great no matter what you call them.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah but slightly different if you use a dedicated toastie maker which are pretty common, it seals the bread around the edge and gives you a perfect pocket of cheese.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But then you don't get that cheese that dribbled out and sat on the pan and got crunchy and savory and delicious. Like caramelized cheese.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That's why you intentionally overfill the sandwich so that when you press down on the maker some cheese is hanging out the side, and the rest gets trapped in its pockety goodness.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I looked up "grilled cheese sandwich maker" and apparently there's quite a few kinds as well. Personally I prefer a small nonstick pan because I like the overflowed cheesy goodness. My dad would sometimes make us "iron cheese sandwiches" by wrapping them up in aluminum foil and putting the hot iron on top. They were really good, but with a tendency to scorch, and sometimes Mom got mad if butter leaked out onto the ironing board. He'd use Longhorn Colby cheese in thick slices of my mom's homemade bread.

i case you haven't tried it, ghee butter is the best oil for this in my opinion

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It's after Halloween, the trick or treaters didn't reach the bottom where I was storing the Butterfingers, so those!I never buy candy for mysel.

Kraft deluxe Mac and cheese. Deluxe makes the difference. I can treat myself.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I discovered frozen butterfingers this year... Game changer

I just got one of those big bags of salted pistachios. My tongue is fried

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Roasted and salted pistachios is basically crack. It's not possible to stop once you open that first shell

Salted Popcorn

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I know this is dirty, but I eat shop-bought tortillas raw, sometimes with a bit of sauce on them. Can't get enough of the blighters.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Home baked kale chips.

Dry off the kale, rip the leaves into bite-sized bits and toss with 1tblspoon olive oil, the add some salt, pepper, garlic powder and chilli powder (if you like a bit of heat). Then, arrange kale flat on a baking pan. Bake for 20 minutes at 300f. Let them cool for 10 minutes.

So delicious. Perfectly crispy and salty.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I used to make these all the time. I prefer to keep the leaves big. Also you really REALLY need to dry off the kale, as any amount of moisture causes it to steam instead.

I like to do oil, honey, salt, pepper, and a bit of cayenne

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ohh, a bit of honey is a great idea!

Sea salt pita crisps and smashed avocado.

My favourite snack now is a type of candy made from crushed peanut and jaggery. It's called crushed peanut chikki.

Veggie Straws, sea salt or ranch.

choco churro turtle chips (they aren't made from turtles)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Those look great! Where do you get yours? They're on Amazon but they're expensive and I'm tired of supporting Bezos.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I normally find turtle chips in international markets where I live! (Mid-Atlantic United States)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'll do digging, thank you!

Also, great screenname! I'm also a fan of the best beetle ever. Snoots and boots!

Hey...do we have a weevil time community?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you!! I haven't noticed any weevil communities yet but I'm in as many bug groups as I can find lol

I champion chomping on champignon.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You have the roles reversed. It's the snack's job to appease me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Rice chips/Rice cakes, taste great, are cheap and are healthy, underrated snack imo
