Is that restocks, impulse shopping, or the annual plan (like mine)

We are the architects of our own destruction…
Pixel_Jock_17@piefed.ca 1 day ago
Pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, various nuts and other baked legumes are decent alternatives for chips.
There are all rice chips, root chips, pea chips, and so forth.
Nothing, however, can replace real chips…
StabbingSky@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
Just be careful, because nuts are pretty calorie dense.
mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 1 day ago
pickles, cucumbers, carrots, peppers. nice and crunchy, basically zero cal, they take some time to eat (unlike nuts that you can pop by the handful).
but yeah for shovelling, dry popcorn is a good option
bss03@infosec.pub 1 day ago
Yeah, I used to get nuts, but I go through them quickly, easily eating more calories at a faster rate than if I get grabbed some Cheetos^™.
Now, I air-pop my own popcorn. The additional effort is a helpful chance to ask myself if I really want to snack, and a full half cap of kernels (which is a lot of popped corn) and as much EVOO as I care to dose it with is still a lot fewer calories than I would get from nuts, and it takes longer to eat.
Pixel_Jock_17@piefed.ca 1 day ago
Very true. I was speaking for myself a bit. I can’t eat too many nuts, they hurt my stomach so u just use them to satiate the crunch craving on the go, during the week.
On a Friday night when ive got the munchies all bets are off. And popcorn is absolutely on my rotation of brain off snacking.

I can feel this meme through the screen.

Try to have some fruit on hand!

I would also recommend some bananas.

I made popcorn, on the stove, I was that desperate

Every. Fucking. Night.
Broadfern@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I stopped that bc it made me obsess about snacks and binge when they were in front of me.
If it’s always there it’s less stress and easier to practice moderation 😋
StabbingSky@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
It’s the opposite for me, but my sleeping meds make me ravenously hungry.
jjlinux@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
Holy shit. That’s me 🤣
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 day ago
My air popper burnt out on Sunday. I only had three other ways to make popcorn it was scary for a minute

I understand that I’m not the target audience of this meme, but I’m confused. Isn’t it an option to simply eat dinner?
Alternatively… to simply be hungry for an hour?
the_flying_pig@lemmy.world 1 day ago
The joke is that at the time of shopping we decide to be strong and be hungry, but when the time comes to test that determination, we don’t have the strength of our past well-wed self.
5318008@lemmy.ml 1 day ago
I’m still confused. I thought the Snack situation was,
-
You’re hungry,
-
The chips are ready to eat,
-
You eat the chips.
So if there are no chips, you have to make something to eat instead, which becomes de facto Dinner. So the No Snack situation is
- You’re hungry,
2a. There is no food ready to eat,
2b. You make food to eat,
- You eat the food.
I might be off base here.

Dinner is not snacking.
Dinner is a commitment. You make dinner to eat dinner.
Evening snacking is optional and periodic. You can have few snacks. You can have many snacks. You can snack here or there. You can snack anywhere. You can snack reading a book. You can snack in a nook.
If I make dinner… I am eating dinner. If I grab snacks, I might have a few laying in bed after ripping a joint and I can stop at any time. Just a few more chips. I’m good.
shalafi@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I don’t snack at all. I only put food in my face two or three times a day, sometimes 4 if I’m working hard. Guess who isn’t fat.
MsPenguinette@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I’m gonna lose so much weight once I don’t have a teen in the house. The snacks. It’s like the ring. Every moment is a moment of avoiding being cheeky with a little snack
kestrel7_7@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Couldn’t be me. I have an entire apartment to store snacks in
someguy3@lemmy.world 1 day ago
But abs.
redballooon@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Should have bought some sweet carrots as evening snack.
gergolippai@lemmy.world 1 day ago
thanks obama
IDew@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
I hate this. I need to stop eating chips whenever I get home from work, so I didn’t buy any. Then I get home from work and I don’t have any chips to eat and dinner isn’t soon enough😩
Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Try eating an apple.
kestrel7_7@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Maybe when they have nacho cheese flavored apples 😉😂
FernMD@lemmy.ml 1 day ago
And popcorn. Good source of fiber. And crunch.
IDew@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
I do actually eat one on the way home. Very delicious crunchy juicy apples they are!
LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 day ago
Sadly that’s when I make worse decisions. I end up finding out I have oats or cocoa powder and I’m making some excuse to make cookies or a cake lol
Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 1 day ago
Or eating a bowl of dry oats with cocoa powder on top.
arrow74@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
At least you are practicing a skill
surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Get White cheddar rice cakes. Are they chips? No. Do they satisfy the craving? No. But are they with eating anyway? Also no.
IDew@lemmy.zip 1 day ago
They are delicious, too bad the ones with toppings have very unhealthy ingredients. (Chips aren’t much healthier lol) I usually get the cakes made from corn, with a very slight pinch of salt. But these packs are gonna be consumed from top to bottom so yeah🫠
GottaHaveFaith@fedia.io 1 day ago
I buy those round gluten free things. I start eating them and they taste so bland the need goes away
DagwoodIII@piefed.social 1 day ago
Don’t buy chips, buy good food to snack on.
Apples and cheese makes a great snack. Even quality peanut butter is better than ultra processed chips.
StaticFalconar@lemmy.world 1 day ago
