I guess you could call them comfort foods also.  I was inspired to start this post while sitting at the computer eating saltines. I can eat a whole pack in one sitting and not even realize it.   It made me wonder how much I've eaten in a lifetime.  I'm pretty much the same way with preztles and popsicles (even in the winter).  Whats your favorite lifelong foods?

Jay's potato chips which, alas, may soon be no more.  (They are in bankruptcy proceedings.)

Perhaps not actually "snack food" per se, but ramen noodles, especially Maruchan Ramen.

Oh what the heck, I can't go without mentioning Vienna Beef hot dogs.

Planters dry-roasted peanuts.



I eat them all the time and usually keep my cupboard stocked with a couple of extra jars so I don't run out.

I'm particularly fond of the TastyKake variety of cakes, including KandyKakes, TastyKake Pies, and KandyKake Cupcakes.

Since being a kid in the 70's:
Doritos Nacho cheese corn chips
Pretzels
Cheeze-Its
Pringles

Since being a teen in the 80's:
Funyuns
Doritos Cool Ranch corn chips
Skittles
Beef Jerky

These days one will find at least four of those in my snack closet at any one time. Yes, I am a junk food-aholic.

Sour Cream and Onion Pringles, Garden Salsa Sun Chips, and BBQ Lays.  As for snack cakes, Twinkies, Cupcakes, and Snowballs.

When I was in Canada I was very partial to corn nuts.  But I can't find them in this country  Bluesad

Other than that, I love French Fry sticks.  Which are potato chips, cut into thin sticks. 

Cheese Twisties - Long, slightly deformed looking cheese snacks made from corn and rice.  I also don't mind the chicken flavoured ones.

Space Food Sticks - not sure exactly what these things are, but they are chewy sticky candy concoctions.  They're older than me   Buggedout  and I remember loving them as a kid.  The big deal was that they supposedly are based on the food that astronauts take with them into space.  They come in 2 flavours - Caramel and chocolate.  I always preferred caramel.

Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs - popcorn clumps smothered in chewy sticky caramel toffee and I think they might have peanuts in them as well.

Crispy M & Ms - no more explanation needed.

Cinnamon Scrolls - pastry rolled into a carpet like tube and then cut into chunks smothered in sugar syrup and cinnamon.  You generally only get them at the bakers.

That's all I can think of right now.  For the record, I don't eat this stuff any more - haven't for a very long time.  I love all those foods, but they don't love me.  And honestly, it's not worth jumping up a couple of dress sizes just for snack food.

I wish I was one of those people who was bean pole thin and can eat anything I like.   Bluesad

Corn Nuts...ugh!
I used to love 'em until I ate an entire bag of them (ranch flavor) and then did shots of Jim Beam with my friends.
Lets just say that when I puked my guts out later, it wasn't pretty.
I've never eaten them since.

When I was down in Australia, I had this snack called Burger Rings.
They're kind of like cheeseburger flavored Funyuns and were darn tasty!
I wish they sold them here in the U.S.

Sorry Ash, but that made me smile. First genuine one I've had today.  TeddyR BounceGiggle

I can still pretty much eat what snack foods I had as a kid. There is just one thing that I can't find here anymore: orange flavoured chocolate bars. I know that might sound gross, but it isn't.

I have always been a trail mix fan so I usually buy a bag or two at the grocery store for work.

1) Cow Tails-  Soft Caramel and creme filling
2) Pork Pie- Can't get them but in English-related countries. When I travel, I always try and get my fill, but its been 2 years.
3) Most peanut butter things.
4) Bugles- orignal corn flavor

I like to visit convience storeres once in a while to take the snack food pulse of th world.  You never know what you will find.

Hey 'Bees...try a gas station type convience store.  Corn nuts are pretty ubiquitous, theres some in the vending machine in the hall.

Potato chips.

Circus Peanuts.  I haven't had them in years, for a while I totally lost my sweet tooth and am just now getting it back.

Granola Bars, chocolate covered caramel ones and chocolate covered chocolate chip ones are my faves but I also like Apple Cinnamon ones. Love Vachon cakes especially half-moons and my newest find, Miami cookies. YUM!! MacIntosh Toffee I've had a terrible weakness for since I was a kid. Love M & M Minis too. And Jersey Milk Bars.

My weirdest snack is probably having two tins of Vienna canned sausages which I like to warm in a bowl in the microwave.
