Favorite Quick Lunch
Posted in Fav Things by: Alisa
You know when you’re running around trying to get as much done as possible before you pick up the kids and you get hungry? What do you eat? My favorite thing to grab is a Coke and a Snickers. Got your basic food groups represented for sure. I was at Safeway the other day and grabbed the best Snickers I have had in my whole life. I looked at the package and lo and behold it was a Big Bite. So not only was I eating heathy, I was eating an appropriate portion. And while we’re on the subject I want to say that I personally think Coke tastes better out of a bottle. Plastic is fine. There’s something about the flavor of bottled Coke that just denser and more enjoyable.
Anyway, I want to know what you grab when you’re running around. It’s OK if it’s actually healthy. I wont think less of you. I promise.

So I just eat whatever kid snack I have stashed in my bag- pretzels, Fruit Loops, cheerios, goldfish- if I’m at like a 7-11, I’ll usually grab a slurpee and I’m a sucker for beef jerky. I also love the beef sticks- but they’re so terrible for you, I feel guilty for even looking at them sometimes. I also LOVE LOVE the smoothies at Target by Archer Farms, actually I think I just love smoothies, slurpies, slushes, in all their incarnations so maybe that’s my answer. The first thing I grab is a smoothie.

HAH!! A Big Bite!! Were you thinking, “wow, this is lasting a really long time…”
I love a Coke and a Snickers too, but I am not always that confident in myself – as in do I deserve to be eating that.
So I will get a big 44 ouncer of Diet Pepsi and fill it 75% full, then I will cheat and add some regular CherryPepsi (full calories/full strength/FULL TASTE). And to accompany that, I will have a bag of Chili Lime flavored almonds. However, if I were to look at labels, maybe I might as well be having a Snickers….
very very good post
