Echo Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Sometimes, the most interesting and fun foods are the ones we eat as snacks or appetizers. What interesting or just plain delicious snack have you had today? I just had an cup of Pomegranate/Acai Berry yogurt. It was unbelievably delicious!!

Kell Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 These days I find myself nibbling on a lot of crystalised ginger in an attempt to stave off morning sickness. I love ginger anyway, but I'm starting to get a bit sick of it already! Also dry crackers - Carrs Water Biscuits or Cornish Wafers are favourites at the moment - again, it's anti-morning sickness stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyanddandy Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Dried bananas are great for my sweet tooth - Tesco's are good - beware a lot of brands with added fat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nici Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 No I don't Judy. I do it in a saucepan with a lid and a tiny drizzle of oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Butter Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Warm pitta bread with humous or taramasalata goes down well in my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggle not Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Peanuts! Peanuts! Peanuts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angerball Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Pistachios and cashews are my favourite. I also like yoghurt, and dried fruit, and cereal bars (apple and sultana are delicious). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I don't very often eat these, but my favourites would be honey roasted peanuts, roasted cashew nuts and dried apricots. Once I start eating them I can't stop (angerball, just noticed you and Muggles are reading the same book - you'll have to compare notes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kell Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Peanuts! Peanuts! Peanuts! I adore peanuts, but aparently they should be avoided during pregnancy because they can cause an allergy in the little'un. How nuts is that? (Sorry, I couldn't resist a small and terrible pun there!). I'm going to have to ask the midwife if that extends to ALL nuts or just peanuts, because I'm kind of missing cashews and almonds right now too...

Icecream Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Kell, I think that is only if you have an allergy in your family, as it prevents the baby from getting the allergy. This thread is so good for a heavily pregnant woman with a toddler. I usually snack on fruit or crackers, or maybe toast since being very pregnant, but I am just so very hungry with having both children and have been struggling to think of healthy snacks that are substantial enough to get me through the morning, or afternoon with the children, but not too much. Keep the ideas flowing. I need them..(and so will Kell). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo Posted February 10, 2008 Author Share Posted February 10, 2008 Today I've snacked on potato chips, Krispy Kreme donuts, chocolate, white chedder cheese puffs, and 3 diet cokes. It's that "time of the month".... No wonder I've been putting on weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Andrea~ Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I'm really into twiglets at the moment and I have a bag of them every day at work. I do snack a lot as I have problems regulating my blood sugar and need to eat little and often. My snacks of choice tend to be fruit and yogurt, but today I have been naughty and had white chocolate raisins . Oh and pistachio nuts. I had some of those today too. I luv 'em.

Kylie Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I love chips and chocolate but have been quite healthy at work lately. I usually have a banana for morning tea, but this week I've switched to yummy red apples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maureen Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 right now I am snacking on krustini, which are sweet hard biscuits with raisins and almonds. They are great with morning coffee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loopyloo100 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I've just tried, this week, SunBites - Sour Cream & Cracked Black Pepper - They are just sooooooooooo scrumptious!

Loopyloo100 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I mainly snack on biscuits Custard Creams are my favourite but shortbread biscuits are good for dunking in tea I was just wondering: do you drink much tea or coffee and is it usually caffeinated?
