My Go-To Salty Snacks
While I love me some chocolate, I’ve never really had a big sweet tooth. Given the choice of snack, I’m almost always going to pick something salty and crunchy.
And cheesy. Did I mention cheesy? These Sonoma cheese crisps are so snackable. They’re essentially just dehydrated cheese. They come in several flavors and they’re all good.
The ultimate chip variety pack! No duds, only bangers! The best of Lays, Doritos, Frito, Ruffles, and Cheetos all in one beautiful purple box.
I don’t like most microwave popcorn. It’s just not the same as the stuff at the theaters. It’s either mushy, partially burnt, artificial tasting, or nowhere near buttery enough. This AMC stuff, though, is VERY close to the real thing. It’s fluffy but still crunchy, salty, and nice and buttery. I suppose it shouldn’t be too surprising that the theater people make the best microwave popcorn.
The breadsticks and garlic rye chips are the best parts of Gardetto’s. You can’t fight me in the comments because I don’t turn them on. The aged cheddar variety is great too. I am also glad they sell the rye chips on their own.
You thought we were done with cheesy stuff. No way. This wheel of cheese has just started rolling. Cheezits are hard to beat. Cheesy, salty, crunchy, square. You can fit like 14 in your mouth. 10/10 on the Snacktor scale.
Some of you have probably never even heard of these, but my Southern brethren will immediately recognize this gas station delicacy. Homemade is best but who has the time to be boiling peanuts. Super salty, some are crunchy, a little spicy. They make a regular version but that’s for children.
I'm not big on regular pretzels but Snyder’s always gets a pass. Most of the flavors are decent but the best are the honey mustard and the cheddar. One of the crunchiest snacks out there.
That's right it's more cheese. I grew up eating these Lance cream cheese and chives captains wafers and I still love them today. Flaky, salty, and creamy. Solid snack.
There are lots of great high quality, minimally processed jerkies available now. Slim Jim is not that, and it doesn't need to be. They’re salty meat sticks. I've never felt the need to read the ingredients label of a Slim Jim. I'm not sure that I could with all the grease on my fingers. The point is Slim Jims are an American pastime, like baseball. That’s why they’re bat shaped.
Yea it’s a cheese thing. The cheese Ritz bits are the best ones. The End.
