I want your snacks.

I love food. It’s one of my favorite subjects. My favorite time of day? Lunch. Second favorite? Snacktime.
When did I make this vinagrette? Why am I talking to a loaf of bread?
Snacks are such a personal thing. They’re horded in desk drawers, tucked on top of refrigerators, carried to work or school in briefcases and backpacks. And snacks can be very specific: if you’re a Cheez Its person (like I am), no other cheese cracker will quite do. And I’d wager that to some of you out there, a peanut butter granola bar is *far* different from an oats ‘n’ honey. Maybe an oats ‘n’ honey person will eat a peanut butter in a pinch, but it’s somehow not quite the same.
What I’m getting at here is that you’ve got some go to snacks. Maybe you make them, maybe you walk down the block to the gas station to get them. Whatever your snack is, it’s a part of a lot of your days, a part that rejuvenates and gets you back in the game. It’s a part of your personal style, even. Only some people have the smoke break; everyone has snack break.
Why the snack post? Because I want to know, my socially networked friends, what your snack is, and then I want to photograph you and your snack. It’s a little personal project I’m starting. I’ll even provide the snack itself, or the ingredients with which the snack is built. I’ll work with your schedule. It’ll be fun, because we’ll have snacks.
Boring snack, crazy unique snack, eaten at work or at home. . . I want ‘em all. Share your snack in the comments, and email me at chris (at) chrisbohnhoff.com, or tweet me @chrisbohnhoff and we can do a little snack shoot.
OH MY GOD TELL ME YOUR FRIDGE IS NOT REALLY THAT CLEAN.
Well. . . I’ll admit to a little creative arranging, and maybe a quick wipe down. Since it’s one of the harder places for dog hair to collect, it also happens to be one of the cleaner places in our house.
I’m glad to hear that you are still loyal to Cheez Its!
Snacks for me must be at least crunchy, but crunchy and smooth together are best. That’s why guacamole and tortilla chips is my favorite snack. Which is a little dumb considering where I live. Do you know how hard it is to find a ripe avocado in northern MN Sep. – May?
I love your project idea!
I think this is one of my favorite photos of you!
umm…what’s in that jar you’re holding?
jerky, my friend, jerky is my snack. i don’t feel great about it, but it is what it is.
Rhubarb cilantro vinagrette – pretty gloppy, huh? I’m almost *positive,* though, that it’s less than a month old.
Hot dogs, dude. For some, it’s lunch. For me…snack. In a bun. Chicago-style if I can get it (hard to do in Phoenix). Or just plain. With mustard. Sometimes with ketchup. And there’s this one place in Evanston where they serve it Chicago-style BUT add spreadable cheese on the bun and add two strips of bacon. THAT is a snacking masterpiece.
