Being a marathon runner, I do need to eat a lot. I don't have problem with being overweight, as many of you have noticed from my skinny arms videos... :)

So what is your favorite snack? I like cinnamon-raising bagels. Now that might be considered more than a snack - it's quite filling and has loads of carbohydrates. I like them just plain with nothing on them. Tim Hortons make wickedly good ones. :dude:
I almost always have some bagels sitting in my office. In case I didn't have big enough lunch, or I had to skip breakfast. Then I just reach for my yummy bagels and my tummy is happy.

Another snack I dig a lot is Newton's Figs. Yummy stuff! They are very sweet though, so I usually don't eat too many in one go, or I go into sugar overload. It doesn't have to be Newton's necessarily. Most figs of this type taste just fine to me.

My favorite unhealthy stuff is probably Doritos chips. Tasty stuff. I love chips and cheezies more than I should, but what can I say? :D At least I run most of it off.

Probably chips and good salsa, and also a big spoonful of Adam's chunky peanut butter. http://www.adamspeanutbutter.com/

I love chips and dip/salsa.. i also enjoy muching on crispy bacon, even though that is extremely unhealthy.

I almost never eat sweet stuff such as bagels, cookies and candy though.

Pistachios are like crack to me. I have no idea why. Otherwise I like low-salt cocktail peanuts or big ol' pretzels.

Pringles, and Nacho Cheese Doritos for me as far as "bad for you" snacks go.

I've always had a weakness for crackers and cheese. Cashews and peanuts are tasty, too.

After all the talk of Biscottis and bagels (I loves me some bagels when it happens, but I don't even know what a biscotti is :D ), I probably should not even mention some of the stuff I love to snack on (someone said bacon, right?).

Being from the midwest/south US, my eating habits are probably thought of as barbaric. :thwap: But I'm only 30 years old, 6'00" and 170 lbs. And I have high blood pressure. :pancake:

Either a good old Hershey bar or a double stuff Oreo. Or, my favorite fruit, Krispy Kreme doughnuts. :D

OMG that is the funniest picture I've seen in a while...and so true. Not technically a snack, but if someone said "Are you hungry...beer or bagel?" There is no in between...:D

I thought of the pic because of all the snacks being mentioned and we needed something to wash them down.

I can't recall, that might be one of Shiners pics from our Washburn days. In fact, that just might be Shiners house.

Strummy... are those photo's from your last trip to Georgetown?

That's a very familiar image to us Canucks.

If that were Shiner's house, and it was nearby, I would visit frequently. ESPECIALLY if the rainbow was present.

If that was Georgetown, don't you think I would be communicating with you from there, in the house I decided to purchase? Even better, I would have invited you and the rest of the Canadian gang for beer and jam session.
