snack swap – post 311

Yesterday I talked about favorite snacks.  Today I let you in on what I love next to my favorite snacks.  I love trying snacks that I can’t get where I live and I don’t mean just here in Canada, snack stuff can be different from one end of a country to the other.  I want to try the snacks that people buy in the southern states, over seas and way down under.  I think snacks say neat things about a culture.  What they like to grab on the go, the types of flavors they prefer and what they think is a fun food to eat.  To me, snack foods from around the world are super fascinating.

What I’d really love to do is to set up a snack swap program.  A site where you go and trade snacks from your region with other people.  It would have to be non perishable foods like chips, crackers, chocolate bars, candies and such.  Maybe canned drinks… I’d have to look in to that.  Maybe not even limit it to snacks but just fun food products from your neck of the woods.  Yeah, this idea would be awesome!

I’d be willing to swap a Big Turk chocolate bar, a small bag of ketchup flavored chips and some Swedish Berries.  Any takers?  Your swap would have to include snacks I can’t get at a store near me.
