snacking – B104.7 Manhattan's Hometown Country Station https://b1047.com Bringin' B Country to the Flint Hills for Over 25 Years Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:26:46 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.1.4 43030200 Cookies, chips top snacks we’ve loved since we were kids https://b1047.com/cookies-chips-top-snacks-weve-loved-since-we-were-kids/ Thu, 17 Jun 2021 14:26:46 +0000 https://b1047.com/?p=300157 When it comes to snacking, Americans are the undisputed champions of the world.

Of course, we *might* be a touch biased, there.

Still, we know a thing or two about that mid-morning, mid-afternoon or late-night snack. And we most likely learned about it from our parents.

Seemed timely.

A new study conducted on behalf of California Prunes  showed that 53 percent of Americans say they inherited their snacking habits from their parents. I know I inherited my grandfather’s sweet tooth, so that seems legit.

Unfortunately, we’re not very good at doing the healthy snack thing. Our top favorites are:

  1. Cookies
  2. Potato chips
  3. Popcorn
  4. Pretzels
  5. Corn chips
  6. Cheese
  7. Cured meats
  8. Chocolate
  9. Olives
  10. Fresh fruit. (Ed. note: HEY! A healthy one!)

Also, who just snacks on olives?!?! Those are only good in a martini. Shaken, not stirred. Obviously.
