c/controversial-snacks

I finally embraced eating cereal with orange juice during my morning sketches.

I sketch every morning, and I switched from milk to orange juice in my cereal. It sounds odd, but the tangy taste wakes me up better than coffee. My roommate thinks it's disgusting and says I'm ruining cereal. Has anyone else tried a weird liquid with their cereal for creative energy?

TIL cereal with water isn't as awful as people say...

Was out of milk this morning so I tried it. Honestly... it's pretty refreshing and less heavy.

My Paris hotel breakfast disaster with cereal and water

At the hotel buffet, they were out of milk. I used water on my cereal, and it turned into a soggy, flavorless mess. Who says this is a good idea?

Salt on apple slices works oddly well.

It makes the fruit taste sweeter without being too much. Try it once and see.

Cold breakfast pizza was a weekend ritual in my house, and I'm baffled by the hate

When I was a kid, leftover pizza from Friday night was Saturday morning fuel. We just grabbed a slice from the fridge, no heating needed. Now, I see people online calling it gross or lazy. But to me, it tastes like childhood Saturdays. I had a thought that our snack habits are tied to family traditions. My friends mock me for it, but I stand by cold pizza. It is more than food, it is a happy memory.

Late-night chocolate was messing with my sleep

I quit having chocolate in the evenings. Now I fall asleep easier and wake up more rested.

Chips on a sandwich seemed crazy to me until I tried it.

I always avoided putting potato chips on my sandwiches because I figured it would be too dry. Then at a picnic, someone handed me a turkey sandwich with chips inside. The crunch mixed with the flavors was surprisingly good. It added a nice texture without taking away from the taste. Now I do it all the time, and I get why people like it.

Mark's shake-dipped fries turned our lunch into a showdown

We met up at the burger joint down the street last Friday. Mark ordered a vanilla shake and a large fries, then proceeded to dunk every single fry. I swear, the whole table went silent for a second. My other friend Jen laughed and called it a genius move, but I think it's absolutely disgusting. We spent the next half hour debating if sweet and salty belongs together. I left feeling annoyed because now I'm side-eyeing anyone who eats fries near a milkshake.

Lunchbox argument over hot sauce on fruit actually worked out

We always debate weird snack combos at work. Someone brought watermelon with hot sauce today. It started as a joke, but folks liked the taste. Could see it catching on more now.
