Your Favorite Night Time Snack

I'm not usually hungry at night, but when I snack, I go for the most random things. It could be salad, chocolate, yoghurt, biscuits, crisps, even just sauces by themselves (I have no idea why I do that). I've actually got into the habit of making up a little bit of a bernaise marinade my brother invented a while back and just eating that. It's so bloody nice ^_^ Of course sometimes I eat some cheese for my cheese-dreams, and when I've been hungry and had no idea what to eat I've been known to try raw gravy powder and other such disgusting things.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

If I have a bag of candy or something lying around, it's not going to last long past midnight. Aside from that, I don't do much midnight snacking, unless I havn't eaten dinner. In that case, I usually have a heaping bowl of dry cereal. With 4 other people in the house, I have to be rather discreet about my presense in the kitchen at that hour.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

its never a bad time for yogurt exept when I run out and all I have is pudding

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm doing the whole midnight snack thing right now.

The guilty pleasure this time: Ritz sticks crackers, and leftover Rockets [Smarties to you US peoples] and Swedish Berries from Halloween.

Normally I'd just grab something like the crackers, but the extra candy was a bonus today.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Ginger snaps seem to be the norm for me. I for some reason or another always have them around. They just seem to be the perfect low key snack for late night internet browsing and work.

How ya doing, buddy?

that reminds me, the new oreo christmas commercial rocks. santa comes in, has a black beard, a kid waiting for him with 2 oreos and 2 glasses of milk, he mimics the kid in eating the cookie, the kid drinks his milk, spilling it over his face in the process, santa mimics that too, turning his beard white in the process.

FELIPE NO

eating right before you go to sleep is bad for you. you guys really shouldn't do it.

but then again, sometimes you've had a night of heavy drinking, and you come home, hit a bowl and gotta throw some tasty fuel in the tank to keep yourself knocked out. In many cases I eat:

taco hell - grilled stufted burrito with chicken
lo mein from a local chinese joint
or Famos Amos cookies.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Your the doctor.

I usually eat anything! But I have to say, I LOVE refrigerated green bean casserole late at night. There's just something about it.......

I'm not much of a midnight snacker. I make it a point not to eat during the span of 3 hours before going to bed.

But, there are those nights where just the urge to grab a bite while writing a paper or going over some work that just needs to be done. SO in order to keep with the routine, I rate my hunger depending on my apetite. If it's anything less than what can be satisfied with either a rice ball or a cinnamon roll, I skip eating and go to bed. Anything more on the hunger than the above, I go for a small bowl of ramen, topped with egg and green onions and any other random garnishes I can find in the fridge.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Sometimes I'll dig out something sweet, but most of the time late at night I'm more in the mood for something salty. There's never a wrong time for cashews, and a small bowl at midnight can be quite tasty. No better nut exists for snacking, not even the peanut.

Coco Pops for some reason I always get cravings for them around 2am

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I don't eat anything after dark, I heard it's not good for your health.

FELIPE NO

Hah! Just reading this thread has made me hungry for a snack. My favorite midnight snack would have to be ramen. Maybe throw a little cheese in there. If I don't feel like getting out of bed to get a snack I usually have a box of thin mints and doritos by my bed... Don't ask why they taste so good together, they just do. Bon appetit!

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Usually a baked bean toastie or noodles (ramen)

Although sometimes i get mad cravings for burritos :$

Curry; it's always a good time for curry. And if you don't think so; than you can just shove it.

Edit: I don't mean to sound like an ass; i just haven't had anything but instant ramen, bagels and coffee for like 2 weeks. I'm kinda craving.....

There's nowhere I can't reach.

In all honesty, I haven't really had curry before. Know where I could probably get a hand of it?

Actually yes; which part of canada do you live in? If you live in vancouver find one of your chinese friends and he/she will tell you all the best places for curry. Try to shy from japanese curry though; it's sweet and most people who have had it wouldn't really consider it curry. Indian curry is always good to start with if you think you have a strong stomach; thai curry is espiecally spicy since they have no taste buds; since i'm chinese i like chinese curry the best so my opinion is kinda skewed. Any middle-eastern curry is good; punjab; pakistani; etc etc.

But really you can pick up like a ready to cook package from any asian supermarket; all you need are a few ingredients, like garlic, beef or chicken (no pork), coconut milk depending, and other things that you should already have at home like salt and oil.

Rendang, butter chicken ( i don't think it actually has any butter.....), yogurt curry, panang (i think that's what it's called...), laksa (soupy spicy, filled with noodles it's own class of "curry" not really traditional curry), kare

look for names like that.

There's a box of imported white chocolate in the cupboard. That should last for about two weeks tops.

And of course, you couldn't be more wrong. Sleep is recovery time, and you're asking for trouble if you don't give your body ample nutrients. You need slowly digested healthy fats and protein. Like I said, cottage cheese and peanut butter are incredible.

This made me cry.

FELIPE NO

Late night + Dorm = Vending machine food. ;__;

I seem to go through a lot of Cheese-Its and Pop-Tarts in the wee hours of the morning. Though I don't imagine eating that kind of junk all the time (at any point of the day) is going to be healthy for me. Even with the 7 vitamins and minerals...

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Chicken Pakora, it's like the offical midnight snack of Scotland, that orgionated in India.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
