Subject: Sweet or Salty?

Written By: southernspitfire on 03/24/03 at 09:25 p.m.

Oh PLEASE people...get your minds out of the gutter! ::)

When it comes to snack food, do you prefer sweets...like candy, donuts and ice cream....or do you like salty stuff like popcorn, chips and snack mix?

I prefer salty....I am a Chex Mix-aholic ;D

Depends on my mood ;)

I don't like chocolate as much as I should, it leaves a burning sensation in the back of my throat :-/  But I do love chocolate chip cookies, in the presence of copious amounts of milk.

I love Pringles :D

It depends.  Sometimes I prefer chips and sometimes I prefer sweet stuff, like chocolate, cookies, or donuts…

I go for the salt and fat based junk food.  Doritos, BBQ potato chips, nuts, etc.  I'm not big on chockolate by itself, my favorite candy bar is the Pay Day, m'mm.  I do like M&M w/ peanuts too.

I'm addicted to my big ol' bowl of "Honey Bunches of Oats" in the morning (like you didn't know that, SS ::)) and my big ol' bag of microwave "Orville Redenbacher Theater Butter" popcorn at night, so, you tell me. :-/

If I had to choose it would be sweet !  :)

Sweet mostly. Chocolate's my fave.

Salty for balance. Andy Capp's Salsa Fries, David's Pumpkin Seeds. (Not your typical snacks, huh? ;))

If I absolutely had to choose between the two, I would have to say the salty stuff.

Written By: 80s_cheerleader on 03/25/03 at 07:45 a.m.

BOTH!!!  As long as it's not good for me, but tastes good ;)

I would have to say that one of my favs is Beer Nuts.

It depends on my mood. I'd say salty if I had to choose. But cookies and milk at night are good too. ;D

Both. For salty, peanuts or chex mix yum Pringles too -
For sweet, I love jelly bellies and gummy bears

Chocolate is my depression food. Hershey milk chocolate.

I too will have to say both as it depends on what mood i'm in..................

Generally, if I have something sweet, I have to balance it with something salty.  So, if I eat a candy bar, I will then eat a handful of popcorn or pretzels to balance the sweet.  or Visa Versa.

So, I guess both!!

When I do eat snacks, I prefer salty, like baked Doritos (yes, they do exist ;D) or chex mix. Something like that.

because i have braces, my mouth tends to get cut up from the lovely brackets and wires which i so love.  ::cough:: ;)  the salt in salty food definitely does not ease my pain. ;D

so i guess i'd have to say sweet.  with the exception of "gummy" foods, because they're nasty, in my opinion.  anything from hershey's is good, especially their milkshakes.  :D  (not the ones they sell that the supermarkets, the shakes they serve at the foodcourts in hershey park.)

How did you know that's where my mind has been for the last few days? ? :o  ;D

Keeping it clean.....

I'd have to say I stay mostly with the sweets.  Coffee ice cream by itself, vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup, soft-baked chocolate chip cookies, M&M's, coffee rolls, Munchkins (or donut holes for those of you who don't have a Dunkin' Donuts shop in your area), and just about anything else made of chocolate will satisfy my snack cravings.

Though for variety, I also like popcorn with lots of butter, or tortilla chips with mild salsa and sour cream.  And the new blue potato chips are very good.

Has anyone had salty black licorice?  I think it's from Ireland or somewhere.  It's not sweet at all and it very very chewy.  I had it once and didn't like it much, but I've never seen it sold before or since.

Have you been reading my mind?  These are all of my favorites, though I would have to substitute medium for mild salsa ;)  What is your favorite Munchkin?  Mine are the choc glazed ones---yummy.  Try Entemann's pop-ems.  They are really close to them. ;D

I'm a salt lover I admit it.  But I do like my sweets now and then. I'm addicted to popcorn. I can't even smell it and I must have some....and I can't watch hockey without munching on salt & pepper potato chips......mmmmmmmmmm

I prefer sweet. But sweet as in that pineapple and rice dish (yum!) or chocolate...not all those nasty nasty nasty Wonka creations  :-X :P.

Hmmm, I like both sweet and salty. There are times I mix ice cream and corn chips, and it tastes really good too!   Course, I only do that with vanilla ice cream. I've never tried with any other flavor.

I think that I prefer the salty, starchy stuff myself.. Although once in awhile I do want some nice icecream or chocolate.
