I love chips myself. Cheese chips are the best. Ruffles has a Queso flavor now that kicks butt. they are super cheesy so I use Chop Sticks to eat my chips.. co-workers always make fun of me using the chop sticks.. but i don’t like having cheese fingers while i am trying to code and work on my keyboard and mouse ;-)

Unless that says 'Pepsi' or 'Fritos' on the back somewhere, I imagine someones about to get sued lol. Ruffles is a namebrand of chips here in America as well.


That said. I've had to stop eating at my desk. The 'grime' that comes with dirty fingers got to me one day, so I cold-turkey stopped eating at my desk. I miss it, but have also lost about 10lbs, and save a few bucks too. win win i guess.


When and if I cheat, I actually do the 'milk-and-cereal-from-a-coffee-cup' trick.

You are correct the Ruffles bag does say Frito Lay on the back side (and I am in America! California surfer dude here)
as for the Grime.. that is why i started using Chop Sticks to eat, dont get stuff on my fingers.. and it is hard to eat chips with a fork ;-) lol
since i stopped the Pepsi and Mt Dew all day long at work i have lost 25+lbs.
my other fav snack then would be Teriaki Beef Sticks or good jerkey ;-)

I am partial to Snyder's of Hanover Jalapeño Pretzel Pieces:

and large quantities of ice water (I average over a gallon a day in the summer):

Actually, I pretty much live at my desk so I tend to eat whole meals here rather than just snacking. Sometimes I wish I had a life... Sometimes. :|

Eating chips with chopsticks? OMG! That's so perverse! I love it!

Wow!

I was starting to think i had caught some disease for being unable to catch some more pounds in the gym, but honestly, you guys really made me remember how to get bigger :lol:

No snacks at the PC. But i usually leave it to eat a banana or an apple around 3pm and another around 5pm.

Oh wait, i do eat some toasted cashews at the morning and sometimes i'm at the PC :mrgreen:

Well, uhmmm ... my mom won't let me snack at the puter, but my fave color is pink!

{Slovan ponders if "Boxers, Briefs, Or Thongs While Surfing The Net?" could be next.}

Yes, lovely weather. It only got up to about 90f today where I am. This is a vast improvement over the 110f we have been seeing on and off.

Back on topic:
I also like CHEEZ-IT snack crackers. They are very tasty and don't leave your fingers greasy.

cheez-its are my favorite cracker.
Original, PepperJack & Tabasco (Hot & Spicy) are my 3 main favs.
Though, I actually like the Family Dollar generic Cheez-its over the name brand Original ones. Wal-marts generics are a hit or miss (better or worse, you never know).

Generic food brands are soooo underrated. Atleast where I live.

I do not like eating cheese-y snacks while on any kind of electronic device. One of my biggest pet-peeves is what my family calls 'hand-cheese'. That doesn't refer to just actual cheese residue on your hands, but any kind of gooey, nasty, sticky, residue that comes from your hands. If I get handed any kind of device with 'hand-cheese' on it, I will hand it back and tell them to wash it first. That being said, if I see someone eating 'cheese-y snacks' while using their laptop, I will generally avoid using their laptop.

I usually like to snacks on radishes or celery. To be honest, I think that's why I only weigh 130 LB's and probably why the Air Force refused me because I was under-weight. Hah....

P.S.... I am not a vegetarian. I will kill a steak or 1-pound cheeseburger... Hell, BBQ Ribs are my favorite food!
