Snacks you won't find in public, what are yours?

I just ate a bow full of spinach for a snack.

One of the reasons I have such a hard time keeping my weight in check when I'm away from home is that I eat a lot of high volume, but low calorie snacks that are a bit out of the ordinary. I'm not trying to change that habit - I'm looking for new ideas!

What snack do you guys enjoy at home that you won't usually find on offer out in the world?

    Carrots and cucumber with salsa! White beans with Mrs. Dash and chives. Cold roasted turnips and parsnips with beet juice "dip." And, weirdly, I don't find popchips or veggie straws to be common out and around.

    I like eating a bag of plain salad mix like a bag of chips, I'm with you there!

    Me too! When I was a kid my Mum wouldn't let me shell peas because I'd eat too many :smile:
    My go-to snack is half a tin of sardines in tomato sauce on a small slice of toasted wholemeal bread.
