30 to 40 olives. Give it a try, you surely will not regret eating 30 to 40 olives.
Is there a joke I’m missing here? I do this fairly often.
Uhhhh…my dogs duck breast fillets. It’s like duck jerky and so much cheaper then buying actual duck. Only ingredient is duck at like 4.99 for 14oz.
Alright, you win.
Still won’t try her pizzle sticks though. (Animal dicks)
Weird flavored chips from the Asian grocery store.
I have a bag of numb & spicy hotpot flavour waiting for me at home. Also have a bag of takoyaki flavour.
Dried pineapple bits. One ingredient, absolutely delicious, sweet as candy. You can buy it from the bulk bins at the grocery for cheap
Cheese toasties.
I remember they’re a thing every couple years, eat way too many for a couple months, then grt sick of them and rinse and repeat.
Fuck I love cheese toasties.
I just got one of those big bags of salted pistachios. My tongue is fried
Roasted and salted pistachios is basically crack. It’s not possible to stop once you open that first shell
It’s after Halloween, the trick or treaters didn’t reach the bottom where I was storing the Butterfingers, so those!I never buy candy for mysel.
Kraft deluxe Mac and cheese. Deluxe makes the difference. I can treat myself.
I discovered frozen butterfingers this year… Game changer
Stovetop popped corn
i case you haven’t tried it, ghee butter is the best oil for this in my opinion
Home baked kale chips.
Dry off the kale, rip the leaves into bite-sized bits and toss with 1tblspoon olive oil, the add some salt, pepper, garlic powder and chilli powder (if you like a bit of heat). Then, arrange kale flat on a baking pan. Bake for 20 minutes at 300f. Let them cool for 10 minutes.
So delicious. Perfectly crispy and salty.
I used to make these all the time. I prefer to keep the leaves big. Also you really REALLY need to dry off the kale, as any amount of moisture causes it to steam instead.
I like to do oil, honey, salt, pepper, and a bit of cayenne
Ohh, a bit of honey is a great idea!
Salted Popcorn
I know this is dirty, but I eat shop-bought tortillas raw, sometimes with a bit of sauce on them. Can’t get enough of the blighters.
if you ever feel so inclined, all you need to make your own tortillas at home is:
-
masa flour aka specially treated corn flour
-
a stovetop and a pan for cooking
-
a plastic food storage bag
-
something with a flat bottom, ideally transparent
-
water
the bag of flour typically has instructions for how much flour and water to mix. you can mix it by hand and form it into balls by hand. the size of the balls only matters if you care about the tortillas being “the right size”.
From there, you press a ball flat, toss it on an already hot pan over medium heat, flip it after a couple of minutes, and remove it after a minute more. to press the ball flat, place it under your flat-bottomed transparent thing and mash on it until it looks tortilla-shaped enough for you.
the plastic food storage bag is optional/recommended to stop the tortilla balls sticking when you press them. cut the food storage bag open along its seams and remove its zipper if it has one. what you have left is a single sheet of plastic with a seam/hinge in the middle.
it might be sounding like a lot but it’s really just:
-
mix flour into wet balls
-
mash flour in your “press” made of random flat dishes and a plastic bag
-
cook the thing a little
-
eat
if you iterate on those 4 steps a dozen times, you’ll be out like 50 cents of flour and you’ll have produced at least one satisfactory tortilla. and it’ll be so, so much better than store bought, you’ll think about it every time you have store bought tortillas therafter.
Ah, I meant wheat tortillas. I won’t tell you what I think of maize tortillas in case you get upset. I don’t think you can even buy the ingredients you mention here.

Baby carrots with peanut butter
I add hot pepper powder to the peanut butter
Sea salt pita crisps and smashed avocado.
My favourite snack now is a type of candy made from crushed peanut and jaggery. It’s called crushed peanut chikki.
choco churro turtle chips (they aren’t made from turtles)
Those look great! Where do you get yours? They’re on Amazon but they’re expensive and I’m tired of supporting Bezos.
I normally find turtle chips in international markets where I live! (Mid-Atlantic United States)
I’ll do digging, thank you!
Also, great screenname! I’m also a fan of the best beetle ever. Snoots and boots!
Hey…do we have a weevil time community?
Thank you!! I haven’t noticed any weevil communities yet but I’m in as many bug groups as I can find lol
