Bloganuary 2024 Day 12 Prompt – What snack would you eat right now?

RDP Friday – Curmudgeon

I love chips, AKA crisps, and french fries AKA chips. Given a choice I will always pick salty snacks, unless I’m having a glass of red wine, then maybe a piece of chocolate or a slice of aged cheddar on a cracker or slice of apple, yum…. aged white cheddar on a slice of apple…mmmmmm. I digress.

Although my preference is for salty snacks, high in delicious fat and calories, I’m doing my best to say NO! Because in less than three weeks I shall be on a beach in Mexico, and stuffing chips (of any kind) is counterproductive to feeling confident and comfortable in a bathing suit.

Now once I’m there, that’s another story. Every lunch buffet has french fries, and tortilla chips. Three mimosas will maintain my confidence level as I carelessly and joyously load my plate with hot crispy fries and a blob of mayo for dipping.

But for the next 15 days I shall snack on carrots, celery and oranges.

Someone should probably warn my family that I’m likely to be grumpy, cranky, slightly bad-tempered due to my self-imposed ban of yummy salty snacks.
