What's your favorite midnight snack?

I'm a huge midnight snacker. My favorite used to be a banana, but now I'm allergic to them. Tonight (like right now, it's in the microwave) it's a sweet potato with ridiculous amounts of butter. You? What do you eat when you have bedtime munchies or wake up in the middle of the night?

  • Oh my lord, anything sweet. But lately I’ve been loving citrus candies, salt and vinegar chips and key lime yogurt ice cream bars 😋😋😋

  • A biscuit or cookie, depending on which side of the Atlantic I'm on.

    Carrots with ranch a banana nut muffin or pizza

  • Cereal 🥣 many types!

    Banana, carrot, a tiny portion of risotto or the last part of a tub of icecream I failed at pacing myself with.

  • I was always told not to eat too late at night because your metabolism slows down. But if we are not supposed to have a midnight snack, then why is there a light in the fridge?

    It wasn't until we were quarantined that I realized my true potential to be a professional snacker.
  • Munchies ? You only get the munchies after smoking weed.

  • white castle 🏰

  • @DonLong as usual, extra credit for humor and clever imagery. I too feel like I'm breaking all the metabolic rules, not letting my liver cleanse, will surely die of some dread disease but... I'm HUNGRY. I can't sleep when I'm hungry.

    Thanks you guys. Keep 'em coming! I need some new ideas. I might just make some gluten-free muffins and put them in the freezer just for this purpose. A moment in the microwave, heaps o' buttah, and voila!

  • I've never been a snacker, @littermate - I don't understand this concept of eating anything after dinner and after brushing teeth before bed! If I snacked, I'd be brushing my teeth again. And again. So I keep that proverbial door closed.

    But sweet potato with butter and cinnamon sounds REALLY good right now.

  • @Sideon - You gotta keep those dentists in business.

  • Either kettle cooked potato chips or shredded parmesan cheese straight from the bag.

  • @littermate

    I'm HUNGRY. I can't sleep when I'm hungry.

    The next time you get those cravings, just order up some @McDonL's. My special sauce of serotonin and oxytocin mix will knock out hunger and help you fall asleep fast. Packed full with Vitamin Cuddles, I'm a nutritious part of your Keto/Cuddle friendly diet.

    Now Gluten-free! (seriously, don't touch my glutes).

  • Scoop of cashew or almond butter , some honey, and mix in with some cashew or almond milk

  • Oh @Sideon, CINNAMON. Excellent addition.

    Heh heh. Promise @DonLong. I have good boundaries. Sorry I missed you here. :(

    Alas @pmvines, allergic to all things nutty. Except senses of humor.

  • I worked in an office where someone had put a sign on the door, "Caution. May contain nuts".

  • [Deleted User]Honeyluv (deleted user)

    Teriyaki Seaweed Snacks, Tacos, Champagne, Humus and Tacos... I said that already. B)

  • Usually a Belgian waffle with butter, maple syrup and golden raisins on it.

  • Potato chips, gatorade, grapes, granola bar, gummy worms, saltine crackes with strawberry jam

  • @UKGuy
    I'm told that simply thinking about exercise, increases muscle strength.
    Unfortunately, the same seems to be true of putting on waistline inches ; after reading your post, I can no longer walk through doorways. Waffles and maple syrup are my "crack cocaine" of food.

  • Oooooooooooooooooooooo, waffles.

  • I'm amazed by all this variety.

  • My go to tends to be sliced apples with either peanut butter & raisins or on wheat thins with cheese.

    But last night it was plain yogurt with raw honey...

    I don't snack at midnight but... I could do a lot of damage with some club crackers and pub cheese. +wine. drool

  • Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

  • I make my own bread rolls, 16 per batch of dough, and freeze them. 30 seconds in the microwave and they're just like fresh baked, ready for peanut butter or Marmite.

  • Ohmygosh @dontremember I'll be right over.

  • I love popcorn! Kettle, white cheddar, butter, cheese and carmel mix🤫❤
