Snacks Are Real Food
Snacks are not just snacks. They are ‘real’ food.
The newest rage is cooking with what appears to be traditional snacks. One such snack is the pretzel.
But the most common is chocolate. As for the diehard chocoholics, they want chocolate with EVERYTHING. Even on bacon!
This is not a new trend, though.
Looking through history you’ll notice this has been in existence in many different cultural dining experiences.
Something that comes to mind are appetizers. These often head up the menus in restaurants. They are also known as starters, antipastos, hors d’oeuvres, aperitifs, or canapés (which were one of the many main attractions that came into the spotlight at Prince William and Princess Kate’s 2011 nuptial!).
Another is dim sum, which is all the rage in Chinese dining (everyone loves Chinese food!).
Then there are tapas, which have been gaining momentum.
What’s great about all of these is the fact that they can be a meal all unto themselves with great diversity. This is especially helpful if one cannot make a decision when there are so many appealing and interesting options.
