I've added a couple of ounces of dry roasted, salt-free, nuts to my diet because I found some information that they are a good source of nutrients to boost the "good" HDL cholesterol.  I've always liked cashews, and now they're good for me :D :D :D.  For the same reason, I also keep some dark chocolate, 60% cacao or better, around.  Tastes great and it's good for you.  Done in moderation they don't add significantly to the caloric intake either.

Air popped popcorn with a spritz of olive oil and then sprinkle brewers yeast on it.  (Can you tell that I live in California?)

It tastes like cheesy popcorn - yummy and very healthy.

My Favs -  Mixed nuts, Pea-nuts - Vanilla Ice Cream, Cold Beer, Whiskey and water (Bottled),  M & Ms, Trail Mix,  a banana a day, Natural Peanut Butter and Jelly, Snickers, Ginger Ale, Black Coffee with out all those additives.  Did I mention Cold Beer?   Probably missed a couple  but since we're all going to die sooner or later, no sense snacking on Rice Cakes.

Two Russian guys are at a store. First guy: Let's get just two. Last time we got three and I got sick to my stomach. Second guy: Ok. [To clerk:] Five bottles of vodka and two Snickers bars, please.

Tyler,

I get the olive oil...but why ruin good popcorn and olive oil with brewers yeast?  In the 70's my folks were on a health food kick.  We would mix a tablespoon of the stuff in orange juice.  The stuff still tasted quite vile even then.  The only one in the house who appeared to like it was Suki, our Siamese cat who popped open the bag of the stuff and ate it!     ;D
