Snacks That They Just Don't Understand...
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. |
Chicharrones, good eating.
|
Oh and Kentucky Fried Buches in Tijuana.
|
SweetTarts. Definitely SweetTarts.
|
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. |
They make these things called stroopwafeln in the Netherlands which are delicious but definitely an acquired taste.
|
Instant noodles (straight out of the pack, no boiling or anything).
|
I do get strange looks when I grab some uncooked spaghetti out of the pack and start crunching away.
|
I guess I've gone healthy...
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.
|
Worcester Sauce Twiglets.
The first bite makes me pucker, but I could eat a whole bag of the nasty things in one sitting. Can't get them over here, and how- alas- they are gone. |

Costco trail mix.
