I saw my doctor recently and while talking about what a lazy fat-ass I am, he mentioned something about replacing the crap I usually snack on with healthier snacks like seasoned air-fried cauliflower or something like that. So what are your favorite healthy-ish snacks that can be made relatively quickly when I feel like shoving food in my face for no reason other than boredom and force of habit?

  • Do oatmeal cookies count?
  • grapes, raisins or nuts mixed with raisins
  • golden sultanas are the best, but i like them best when mixed eith nuts or some other types of dried fruit.
  • Bircher, AKA overnight oats made by soaking yoghurt, oats,p & fruit in apple juice and refrigerating over several days

Anything fermented or pickled is a delight to eat and you can make them at home very easily as long as you're sanitising your jars in boiling water between each use. A youtuber/tiktoker(?) Called Kirsten Kaminski is how i learned about this stuff. She has a cookbook if you're interested.

Would definitely recommend pickled onions, they're absolutely stupendous.

Air dried cauliflower i wouldn't go near but i would try it as a pickle or ferment food.
