I am sure for some “the munchies” is a rare sensation that hits them occasionally, but I find myself triggered by a variety of situations – driving, watching sport on TV, playing Strands, days of the week containing the letter “Y”.
One thing is for sure. When I do get “the munchies” I am not going to be reaching for GRANOLA or FRUIT; well, not unless I have none of the other items listed here available within a half-mile radius. No, it’s POPCORN, CHEESE, CHIPS or NUTS for me, thank you very much.
