Japan: where snack may not be snack after all… , part 3 (finale)

yowieyow — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:21:14 +0000

Here’s a clue to what I mean by “where snack may not be snack afterall.” Meaning that guess what?? in Japan there are many places called “SNACK” but these are not the type of snack place you and I know of in the USA… instead… Don’t be fooled… (read on)…

current favorite snack mascot

skullsnaps — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:05:20 +0000

Otto the Orange, a fantastic snack representative.

but… the snack’s packaging is loaded with curve balls.

if the brand is Terell’s, why does Otto have an S on his hat?

and why does it say “orange in the apple” on the bag?

very confusing, but it does not diminish my feelings towards Otto

**corn fungus. ok it’s also unfortunately named “corn smut,” but really isn’t as gross as it sounds, more like a corn mushroom.

Fancy snacks from Paris. First from Aurore Capucine near Poissoniere, then from my old favorite Gerard Mulot near Odeon/ St. Sulpice where I used to live

soup dumplings gone Hollywood !

skullsnaps — Fri, 19 Nov 2010 16:36:16 +0000

so…we held a very important Snack Club summit this week,our 1st official west coast meeting, and i wanna let the entire club know that i’m having a very positive snacking experience on my trip to Los Angeles. The conference/summit was held at Luscious Dumplings in Alhambra, and the snacks were FANTASTIC! i was mainly focused on the soup dumpling. it was fresh, light+flavorful. super gingery. and as a little footnote, they had the Laker game on. for me, 2 things that go together perfect…dumplings+basketball. ok, that’s all for now.thank you Wendy for the hook up on the hook up.

Tough Call

skullsnaps — Fri, 12 Nov 2010 13:50:24 +0000

which is more exciting? The new Sausage Pancake Bites from Dunkin Donuts (the donut is maple syrup flavored), or the classic Pancake+Sausage on a Stick from Jimmy Dean (the pancake has chocolate chips) ? Ball or stick..? Tough call.

delicious and or disgusting

Wise might wanna re-think this affiliation next season.

it’s just not working out. and..

maybe the Mets might wanna think a little more global.

you never know….maybe that deal with Ruffles or Pringles could go through.

keep reaching for the stars.

The mix of “sweet and spicy” is a winning combo in a chip.

Joe’s Shanghai Soup Dumplings

snackmaster88 — Fri, 29 May 2009 23:41:47 +0000

This place is a monthly ritual for me and jerry! We come here to just get 3 baskets of crap/pork soup dumplings that you dip into special vinegar sauce that hits the spot every time!! I’ve also had their pork shoulder before which pork lovers will freak out over. The meat comes out on the bone but it basically melts right off and into your mouth!!

hello!

name: hannah
location: brooklyn
occupation: kid sister, young adult, farmers market worker, snack blogger
snack of choice: walnuts n raisins, cake, tacos, summer rolls
future snacking plans: food swings vegan milkshakes, more tacos

i’ve been doing some snack-blog research, and i’ve stumbled upon some posts that really speak to my personal snacking lifestyle. I don’t know if any of you are aware of ongoing taco truck persecution, but it’s a total downer and reminiscent of red hook red tape from last year.on a more positive note, how about the portland, OR food carts? so dreamy. snacks on wheels.

octopus balls!!

there is a cute little stand on 9th street between 3rd and 2nd next to cloisters cafe that has these delicious balls!!

Curly Fries Update…

skullsnaps — Thu, 14 May 2009 21:05:22 +0000

went to Curly’s Vegetarian Lunch on 14th street yesterday….

the curly fries were pretty good…not crazy…but pretty good…

the curl was tight..the fry was crisp but not too crisp…and the potato was nice…

i didn’t go for the cheese or chili/cheese…but a little salt+pepper or some herb/spice type stuff would’ve been nice..i would for sure recommend this place….the veggie cheeseburger was boderline very good….

and that’s what’s up…

Coming Soon…FYI…
