Everyone has a different idea of what makes a good snack food...
What's your favorite that friends or family just does not understand the pure deliciousness of?
For me?
Slow Roasted Turkey Tails. Put into a low oven (275 deg. f. ) for 4 or 5 hours till 90% of the fat renders off and you are left with a bit of tender meat and crunchy chicken goodness falling off the bone.
I love some of the Northern English type snacks (fruitcake or currant buns with cheese - you can also see krentenbol met kaas in the Netherlands), but an awful lot of people can't stand the thought of sweet/savoury mixes like this.
returning to the theme of deep-fried: chicken livers and gizzards
As far as chicharrones go ... north of Taos, in a little hamlet called
Arroyo Seco, is Abe's Cantina, a combined bar-convenience store-
cafeteria that has the best menudo and tacos de chicharron that
I've ever encountered.
Wow, I just bought my first deep fryer this past week and it appears that our family can't handle grease. I tried making chicken fingers, french fries, and onion rings (which all turned out wonderfully), but our stomachs have been messed up for days now. I think I will go back to snacking on oranges, apples, trailmix, and broccolli dipped in mayo. Yuck, even my tongue feels greasy!
Beef jerky. I have only met a handful of people in my entire life that love it like I do. Note: Beef Jerky is not supposed to be sweet at all. Ajay's Montana Bananas is what all jerky should aspire to.
