What are you munching on these days? 🙂

Bubba (who is the expert on the matter) and I are departing from the usual chips that are on our stack. If you’ve been following this blog and what we stuff our mouth with, then you might have already read this, this, this, this and this and know the love Bubba has for his chips. I cannot even interrupt.

We still love our Kettle (we just had a bag of Kettle Buffalo Bleu when we watched Eat, Pray, Love movie premiere last Tuesday) and Doritos and Tostitos and Ruffles Cheddar Cheese and Cheetos Jalapeno but there’s a whole universe of chips/junk snack we have yet to explore.

#1 Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Pieces

Snyder’s Hanover Pretzel tops my favorite as of late. Snack on smooth pretzel pieces that are coated with sharp cheddar cheese flavor that’s not too overwhelming – just the right amount of saltiness and cheese flavor that can get quite addicting. I like the texture that feels packed in the mouth then crumbles then melts delightfully leaving you with wonderful cheese flavor.

#2 Winter Fruit Dried Mixed Berries (Blueberries, Cherries, Cranberries, and Golden Raisins)

Dee Boss gave this to me when I came back to the office. She knew I was looking for this and bought it for me when she saw it in S&R. When you’re trying to count your calories or lessen your snacking, this is a good alternative. The light sweetness of the dried fruits will dissipate your cravings and will satiate your hunger.

I think since you keep popping the dried berries in your mouth and chewing on them, your sub-conscious will think that you keep on feeding yourself. And it tastes good, fruitiness jumps from one type of berry to the next. I’m looking for the variant that has mixed berries and mixed nuts too.

#3 Red Rock Deli Deli-Style Potato Chips in Lime and Black Pepper

This reminded me of Tostitos Tortilla Chips with Hint of Lime but more peppery. Texture is also different since Tortilla has thicker surface while potato chips are almost paper-thin like and smoother. I’m still biased with my Tostitos Tortilla chips with Hint of Lime but this is a good variation.
