The Messy, Smelly, and Awkward Snacks You Should Never Eat in Public

Introduction

Whether you’re an outgoing extrovert who never gets embarrassed or a quiet person who tries to stay under the radar, there will always be moments when food becomes your worst enemy, which is exactly why some snacks just don't belong in public. I've rounded up 3 foods that don't belong in public, 1 messy, 1 smelly, and 1 awkward to save you the embarrassment.

Messy

If there’s one snack that makes more of a mess than it does squash the hunger, it’s Takis. No matter how hard you try, you'll always have the need to wipe your hands or worse, lick them. The orangey crumbs have a way of hiding in the nooks of your clothes, and while you try to brush the dust off, it only ends up smearing the color across your outfit. In a matter of a minute, you look like you came from a crime scene, hands  covered in red and clothes stained with red stripes. Not only this but now everyone can tell what you ate, a reminder that this snack is best saved for home.  

Smelliest 

This smelly snack might be obvious to some, but not to others. One food that should definitely be avoided in public is the hard-boiled egg. While it makes for a perfect breakfast or a balanced snack, it also ranks as one of the smelliest foods. The worst part isn’t just the odor itself, it’s how long it lingers, even after the egg has been thrown away. Don’t be the one who turns heads for the wrong reason. Don’t worry, the eggs will taste just as good at home.

Awkward

Who loves eating lollipops? I know I do, but eating one in public is a different story. They are a classic childhood snack, but that's the problem they are childish, and eating them in a more adult public setting, such as work can ruin your mature look, which is never the goal. Another reason is the amount of time it takes to actually finish the lollipop, it is not just a snack you can nibble at and put away when needed, once you start, its takes a while to finish. One of the last reasons is the awkward sucking noise that it makes, which can be distracting, annoying, or odd to others. That's why as much as I enjoy them, lollipops just don't belong in a public setting.

Childhood Snack Glow-Ups

Introduction Everyone has their classic childhood snacks that they still think about or even still eat.  Classic childhood snacks never go out of style, but our taste buds grow up. Here’s how to keep the foods you love and give them a grown up, glow up. 1. Dunkaroos  For some, the sweet-and-crunchy duo of Dunkaroos is just too good to leave in childhood. Luckily there's a healthier, more grown option with some graham crackers, greek yogurt, and honey. This trio will perfectly match the snack ability and keep the sweetness alive through the graham cracker and honey. -Break apart a couple graham crackers into the 4 different thin pieces -Scoop a couple spoonfuls of greek yogurt into a separate bowl -Drizzle some honey on top of the yogurt  -Dip in and enjoy! 2. Fruit Roll-Ups Fruit Roll-ups remain a classic throughout my life, but whenever my mom decide we needed to be healthier she would make dehydrated fruit leathers. Don’t worry, the sweetness is stil...

Weird Food Pairings You’ll Wish You Tried Sooner

Introduction       Weird cravings are a very real thing.  Sometimes they hit during a hormonal cycle, pregnancy, stressful days, or simply when boredom strikes. While some combinations may sound questionable at first trust me when I say there's a chance it might turn into your favorite snack. Over the last couple of years I have discovered a few unusual combinations that have changed my snacking game. Here are the top 3 Weird Food Pairings and why you might wish you tried them sooner.  1. Hot Cheetos and Cream Cheese        Hot Cheetos and cream cheese is my go to late night snack that is absolutely unbeatable.  This one might sound the most normal, what’s not to love about a spicy, salty, savory chip paired with a cool, creamy spread to balance the heat? Don't worry you still have the satisfying crunch of the chip just this way it is paired ups with the perfect soothing texture. This paring is similar to have sour cream and na...

Flavor Hills I’ll Die On

 Introduction Everyone has good opinions, some spicy enough to start arguments with others. In this blog post I will introduce my flavor hills that I'll happily take to my grave. These takes aren’t out there, but they get way more hate than they deserve. Breakfast For dinner Breakfast for dinner is a tradition in my family. Once a week, we will make biscuits or cinnamon rolls with bacon, eggs, and fruit. As someone whose favorite meal is breakfast this is my favorite day of the week, with unmatched sweet flavors while still getting all of the needed nutrients that you would get from a "classic" dinner. Double downing on breakfast will never be a guilty pleasure, forever just a pleasure. Ketchup on Eggs People love to hate on this one, but I'll forever defend it: ketchup belongs on eggs. Since the first time I tried eggs, my parents put ketchup on it, now I won't eat it any other way. The sweetness of ketchup covers up the off-putting taste in eggs that makes some ...
