I'm casting about for a new snack food.
Top priorities:
- It needs to be crunchy.
- It needs to be consistent as far as texture and flavor across the whole batch.
- Relatively cheap
- Relatively healthy-ish
High preferences:
- Salty
- Decent shelf life
- Minimal prep time
If it's something I have to "fix" or cook myself, I want to be able to do it in easily and large batches (hence shelf-life making the list) so that when I want to snack, I don't have to deal with a lot of prep every. single. time.
Currently, I'm snacking on goldfish (original flavor only) or tortilla chips.
I've snacked on pretzels and almonds in the past.
Also worth noting that I hate popcorn, peanuts, and pickles.
What I'm mostly hoping for with this post is something out of left field that I otherwise might not have stumbled over.
Thoughts or recommendations?
