None. If it's here, I'm eating it. I sometimes bring some home on grocery day but it's always gone that day.

Usually, pototo chips, chocolate covered pretzels, gummies, chocolate cover gummies.

Unsalted cashew nuts and french fries. The nuts I eat as is and usually run out by the end of the week. French fries I toss into the air fryier when ever I don't feel like cooking.

I miss trader Joe's dried chili mango and candied hibiscus, their entire dried fruit section really.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (25 children)

Girardhelli brownie mix. Not claiming it's the best ever but it's 100x better than the Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines crap. But there's also the barrier of 5-10 mins prep and 25+ mins baking so it's not instant gratification y'know?

Once you bake a pan though it's pretty great for the next day or two. Assuming you're not too concerned with your waistline.

Edit: Oh and a box is like $3 at Big Lots. But you do have to supply an egg and cooking oil.

Breakfast bars. They're not just for breakfast!

I'm also partial to chips & salsa.

Redbull. It’s not quite what was asked, but it’s about the only thing that is always stocked.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

Reese's Pieces.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

An off-brand oreo called Kaleidos. Idk what it is but they are better than oreos, and they're cheaper to boot.

Also a bag of milk chocolate chips. spread some peanut butter on bread, sprinkle some chips on top and pop them in the toaster oven. Boom. Toasted PB&C, goes nicely with a small cup of milk. Great when it's cold outside.

Pomegranate molasses.

Grapes, apple sauce, avocados

The things that Tim had in his coat pocket that he was so delighted to rediscover that he swore about it.

And if you're wondering "Who's Tim?", oh boy do I have the turn-of-the-century Edgar Wright miniseries for you to watch.

And I don't even do the drugs that require munchies-curing sweet snack foods. I just [expletive verb] love [these particular confections].

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Lame to recommend a show and not name it!

I’ve seen Spaced a few times but it’s been a while and I don’t remember what Tim had in his coat pocket. Guess that means it’s time for a rewatch! (Not a hard sell.)

Nuts. Many kinds of nuts - peanuts, hazelnuts, almonds, cashews... Various mixes, sometimes with dried fruits, then there's the spiced and coated varieties

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

Cheez-its sadly. I can’t stop. Help.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Same. My only defense is to not buy them.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Frozen mango pieces. I love eating those whenever I’m in the mood for something to snack.

Not sure if it counts as junk food, but it’s something I always try to keep at home. Though lately they’ve been sold out at the supermarket. So I’m forced to fall back on my 2nd choice, frozen raspberries.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

frozen raspberries

Haha those should be first choice. Basically the polar opposite in terms of flavor profile

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Oh I love raspberries as well, it’s just that mangoes are more chewy when frozen.
Raspberries tend to be very hard and not as nice to bite down on when they’re straight from the freezer. But the flavor is great, no argument here :)

Thanks for sharing, sharkfucker420. Be safe out there and may the currents always be ever in your favor

It changes for me but right now I got some Fat Boy ice cream sandwiches. This is my first time getting these and they are so delicious.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

I fukken love fat boys. Sometimes I'll mix up the name to introduce some fun to a situation. One time I turned to my partner and said "be right back I'm gonna absolutely fucking destroy a fat man" and she was deeply confused until I came back with an ice cream sandwich.

Anything remotely resembling a snack will not be left for long so we don't keep anything.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Yep. The only way to prevent daily snacking is by not having snacks in the house.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Same here. That's why I try to stock up on more than I think I'll need when things go on sale.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The two types of mentalities on display:

  1. I'll eat too much so I shouldn't buy any
  2. I'll eat too much so I should buy more

Tortilla chips, Haribo gummy bears, ice cream and TJ's peanut butter pretzels are all staple junk food that I usually restock before I run out.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago

Potato chips/crisps!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Dark chocolate. Sweet enough to satisfy sugar cravings, but a low enough sugar content I can chomp on one to get my blood sugar up before going to the corner store for breakfast.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I was with you until you said before breakfast!?!

Junk food is a metaphor for thermodynamics. Nothing lasts. if it's in stock, then it's eaten. So I try not to buy any. But even then I will dip strawberries in sugar.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

dip strawberries in sugar
