@drewcroa@yakkoTDI Do not provide Tantalizing Ideas for the people who write recipes to put into magazines as space fillers. It is from such suggestions that aspics happen.
Besides, it’s probably already a Cherished Local Tradition somewhere in the Deep South.
@hchavers This time of year, I just graze them right off the vine/bush. The blackberries will be ripe in a few weeks and it looks like there will be a ton of them.
@hchavers@macromeh So lucky! We used to visit my aunt on Mercer Island when I was a kid and every undeveloped piece of land seemed to be covered with blackberry brambles. Of course now “undeveloped piece of land” is an oxymoron on Mercer Island.
@Evansdoor ya mean in separate glasses or is that when you drop the shot glass of whiskey into a pint glass of beer? I like 'em both but that just seems wrong. On the other hand, never tried it.
My vitamin M’s (aka M&M’s)… Because, of course, chocolate is good for you. Science says so.
When I took adjudicated youth canoeing across the state of FL I’d have a liter water bottle (white one so not see through) filled with them. As staff we’d ask each other if we had had our Vit M’s yet that day. I got good enough sneaking them that I could do it while in the stern of the canoe with a JD in the bow and not get caught.
I want to say fluff, peanut butter, banana, and jelly. All caringly beaten together… That is pretty responsible… Elvis would probably approve if you threw bacon in to the mix…
Pico de gallo is the healthiest thing I snack on, probably. That or fruit, but I’m not so sure about fruit’s healthiness. They’re basically nature’s soda. Got legit allergy excuses for avoiding your seeds and nuts.
@macromeh On of those “modern food” things that’s both oddly satisfying and somewhat disturbing at the same time. Lately, the disturbing is outweighing the satisfying, which is actually good because I eat a lot less of the crap.
Bacon and Peanut Butter.
Put a Tablespoon or so of Peanut Butter (preferably a lower sugar/higher fat kind like Peter Pan) in a nonstick pan. Heat until runny.
Take a handful of cooked bacon. Pour the PB over it and serve. Alternatively stand at the stove and dip your Bacon into the Peanut Butter.
It kind of a weird, poor, western version of Satay.
Bacon. I am responsible for eating the bacon.
@werehatrack OM NOM NOM NOM!!!
/giphy bacon
Avacado
Avocado and bacon sammich.
@ruouttaurmind that sounds DELICIOUS!!!
@tinamarie1974 On toasted multigrain bread. It actually is pretty tasty.
@ruouttaurmind hum, I was thinking sourdough or mehbe some crusty french bread
@ruouttaurmind Avocado & cheddar cheese on toasted bagel…
Chocolate. It’s a vegetable.
@heartny Second that!
Chocolate, Belgian, dark. I only started eating it as an adult, so very responsible.
@mehcuda67
@heartny @mehcuda67 That poster forgot the last line: “Therefore chocolate is good for you.”.
@heartny @Kidsandliz @mehcuda67
Cant argue with that kind of “Live Long And Prosper” logic.
Cake
Or deep fried pork rinds
But mostly cake
@drewcroa Deep fried pork rind cake?

@drewcroa @werehatrack @yakkoTDI
Deep fried pork rinds (aka cracklins (sort of)) dipped in chocolate. On cake.

Strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries, just under freezing temperature. Add the evaporated milk to make it very a “naughty” snack.

Potboiler: whiskey and beer.
If your having that as a snack you’re not responsible, some one else is. So it’s a very responsible snack.
@Evansdoor ya mean in separate glasses or is that when you drop the shot glass of whiskey into a pint glass of beer? I like 'em both but that just seems wrong. On the other hand, never tried it.
@Evansdoor @pmarin Either way is acceptable.
Beef jerky is pretty nice, too.
Speaking of which, Meh, I’m just about out. I’ve enjoyed what you’ve come up with in the past. I’m prepared to be dazzled again.

@Kidsandliz … did you mean “edumacated” back there?
@pmarin Why you are putting me down/mocking me?
Spoonfulls of peanut butter. Its tasty and nutritious.
@Rueki It’s especially good after nocturnal marital activity!
@Rueki @zinimusprime I thought you’re supposed to just lick it off the organ of choice. Maybe along with a chocolate drizzle.
Tacos. The perfect food.
I want to say fluff, peanut butter, banana, and jelly. All caringly beaten together… That is pretty responsible… Elvis would probably approve if you threw bacon in to the mix…
None of them. They all just sit there and refuse to take responsibility for anything.
Edamame.
Or my grandma’s old standby: blueberries with sour cream.
Pico de gallo is the healthiest thing I snack on, probably. That or fruit, but I’m not so sure about fruit’s healthiness. They’re basically nature’s soda. Got legit allergy excuses for avoiding your seeds and nuts.
Lately it’s been dry plain Cheerios, right out of the box. The way they turn to dust with one crunch is oddly satisfying.

Now where did I put that case of beer?
I started buying apple straws for when the munchies hit. The quarts of gelato got to be too much.
