Snacks


Snacks

     Snacks have a bad reputation among people, and are usually said to be the main cause of most overweight people. But that doesnt have to be the case, and besides when you’re bored and don’t know what to do; Obviously the first thing you do is chow down on some food, but since some people dont want to get off the couch when they’re in a comfortable position just to make some steak,people usually prepare snacks, so they can eat food and at the same time barely put any effort into making the thing! That, my friend is the difference between snacks and regular meals and, yes, it is revolutionary is it not? Three good examples would be chips, cheezits, and some fruits.
               
        Chips
    Snacks can usually be found at almost any store, whether it be walmart or Target. Although snacks like gritz are good, you can find the most popular snack ,Chips, almost anywhere most bag of chips have a 150 calories and around a gain of 10 to 15 grams of carbohydrates so just a bag from time to time can't hurt you. You can thank Joe Murphy for flavoring chips, if it wasnt for him the only flavor for the potato chip would've been salty right now. Chips alone in the potato chip market have generated  You just have to love those flavored potato slices in bag nothing compares to a sour cream and onion Pringles Chip to keep you satisfied. I mean whenever I think of snacks its always a bag of chips.
      
       Fruits
   Fruits can also be snacks as well, though a lot healthier than most.Not all snacks have to be artificially manufactured. Not everything has to be manmade to taste good, in fact I think it’s a lot easier to just pick some juicy and sweet fruit off of a tree, rather than spending a month formulating chemicals to make something taste better.  Fruits like cherries or grapes can easily just be handheld in your lap and consumed to satisfy your needs. It’s also a lot healthier than foods like chips though maybe not addicting as it is. If I had to choose between Chips and strange fruit I’ve never seen before, I’d choose the strange fruit almost any day.

Guess what this thing is.

Cheez-its
        
Cheezits, a cheesy flavored square cracker with a strange hole in them, have grown really popular over the decade when it was taken in by the Keebler Company.Starting in 1921, cheezits was manufactured by the Kellogg Company along with the Sunshine Biscuits division. It reached I don’t remember when I first started eating this stuff , but due to what it looks like in the picture i assumed that it was just a horrible cheese cracker, but I was surprised by how good it actually was. Cheezits have a good taste but to be honest they really don’t taste like cheese to me. Whenever I eat those little crackers I think of the word, gasoline, for some reason. But that little cheese cracker has a total of nine-teen flavors along with its growing popularity.

  2. I sorta like how you didn't say what fruit that was because you can tell people to comment what they think it is and tell them every week.
