What in the fuck is a low key snack?

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 37 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I need examples of high key snacks to fully understand this question.

[–] FlembleFabber@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 months ago

Perhaps add some mid key snacks for me to comprehent this

[–] Sarmyth@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

A high key snack to me would involve 2 separate prep phases.

For instance making crackers involves making the dough then baking which makes it more of a task than cooking a bag of chicken nuggets, which is more of a wait than celery dipped in peanut butter.

I consider these the three teirs of snack making. Anything more and you have entered meal territory.

You simp with no rizz

[–] Waveform@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Maybe it's a snack you like, but not love?

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 20 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Adobo bread buns.

Prior to baking, they make quite a high key sound, but it turns into low-key thud once fully cooked.

You can use the size and moisture content to get the sound you want to some extent.

When making rice at home and if there is still some left over after eating, what I do is compact it as best I can and put it in the Air Fryer. It turns out very crispy and pretty cool.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

oh man I gotta try. I love when a little burns at the bottom of the cooker and its almost like hash browns

[–] cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Many Filipinos love that burnt rice at the bottom of the pot. There is even a word for it: tutong. (Not to be confused with utong which means nipple.)

[–] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

I can easily picture so many funny accident with that confusion πŸ˜‚

oh man. its so cool its recognized by others and has a name.

[–] Concave1142@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Granola, peanut butter, chocolate chips & honey. All mixed together in a sticky mess that is tasty. Make too much? Throw it in the fridge and have a cold tasty snack the next day!

Roasted seaweed. Never thought about it till I tried it and now it’s a great salty hit.

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Find any decent sized packages? Here it seems they individually wrap them in plastic trays with like 5g servings it's ridiculous. No, I'm not just going to have 5g! Give me more

[–] mephiska@kbin.run 3 points 3 months ago

"Kirkland Signature Roasted Seaweed Organic Snack" is probably the best deal out there with the most sheets per package. It can be hard to find sometimes though.

Very good, but there is so little food and so much packaging that I stopped eating them. It just feels too wasteful.

Sliced tomato with flakey salt on top, with sliced avocado with lime salt on top

[–] AnnaFrankfurter@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

That's not low key. That's gourmet.

olives and pistachios

[–] sylver_dragon@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Raw cashews. Very specifically the raw ones. They are a bit hard to find, but they have a really great flavor.

[–] Supervisor194@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago

Truly raw cashews are toxic. The ones you're talking about are apparently steamed instead of roasted? Still, I had no idea they existed.

Dates with candy flavor - like candy, only slighlty healthier!

What makes a snack lowkey?

Not widely known or uncommon is what they’re trying to say. Used lowkey kinda wrong.

[–] Thassodar@lemm.ee 7 points 3 months ago

Marlin jerkey. I was on a bit of a jerky kick last year and ordered all kinds of weird jerky, but the marlin jerky was my favorite. I think I got a lemon pepper flavored one from a company in Hawaii.

Certainly won't regret that.

Pringle-like "Super Stack : Chili and lime" chips from Dollar Tree

[–] DoctorButts@kbin.melroy.org 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Dollar Trre

Is Dollar Trre the Dollar Tree version of Dollar Tree?

[–] Spider89@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Oops.. Fixed!

Frozen yorkshire puddings with raisins inside. A bit of sweet, a bit of cronch.

I am aware of what I have said, and stand by my poor life choices that led to this brilliant discovery.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I see your pudding and raisins, and raise you white bread with mustard loaded with those dried prefried onions. Soft and crunchy.

[–] GoOnASteamTrain@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Now that just sounds blissful! I legit plan to try this

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

There are two styles of the fried and dried onions. They are both good. one is more like a dehydrated onion that you could soften in water, the other is more dried and crispy and in water would dissolve easily. Both are good in different ways

[–] dizzy@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

This is surely a β€œI have no food, it’s midnight, shops are shut and I haven’t eaten since breakfast” discovery.

[–] GoOnASteamTrain@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

It was in fact a protest because dinner would take an hour and a yorkshire pudding fell out its bag while I was rummaging in the freezer! I needed sustenance and gravity obliged, it would have been rude to deny my destiny. 😊

I am sure that my sacrifices and heroism in a trying time are just what any other normal, sane person would have done... I should think probably I guess

[–] jecht360@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Dry roasted edamame. High on fiber and protein without being super caloric. Perfect for feeling full without having to eat too much.

Ants on a log
