My top ten Snacks that I like to Keep in my Dorm

So for next week’s blog I am thinking that I really want to implement something on the informational/political side, which I think is going to take a lot of work/ research/ and finally the observation that that is a very serious topic. So for this week’s topic I am going to do something on the opposite end of the spectrum. So for this week I am going to be talking about my top ten foods that I have ever kept in my dorm.

 

Number 10- Acaci Bowls

High Protein Acai Bowl - Healthful Blondie

While I do not get these as much as I want just because of the main fact of how expensive they are I really really enjoy them. I am aware that I botched the name, however I am struggling to remember how to incorporate accent marks on a keyboard so we will work with what we have I guess. They are an iced smoothie type bowl made up of a special kind of berry as well as optionally granola and a number of possible toppings like avocado, berries, and yogurt.

 

Number 9-Cashews

Planters Deluxe Whole Cashews - Lightly Salted 18.25oz : Target

I am aware that this is an odd choice, but I swear I will destroy some cashews anytime that I get the chance. Cashews, like most stand-alone nuts, are one of those foods that I grew into overtime but now that I actually have started to like them, I don’t think that my opinion will change anytime soon.

 

Number 8-Chiobani Mixed Fruit Greek Yogurt

Chobani® Low-Fat Vanilla Greek Yogurt with Mixed Berry on the Bottom - The  Fresh Grocer

So, on my journey to try to slightly improve my diet I have started consuming these things, and while at first it took me a minute to like the taste of Greek yogurt it, as well as cashews, is beginning to grow on me. These cups are really convenient in the fact that I get to eat them whenever I wake up really late some mornings when I actually feel like eating breakfast. 

 

Number 7-Cheesecake

Freshness Guaranteed Variety Cheesecake, 40 oz - Walmart.com

I know what you’re thinking, this seems really inconvenient to have in your dorm room, and you’re right. However the only time that I have ever had it in my dorm is when my parents got me one to have for my birthday, which I’m not sure if I even needed to say that but, anyway, cheesecake. 

 

Number 6-Yogurt Covered Raisins

I stand by these things. I have stood by them since I was a kid and I will continue to do so, if you disagree, we will have it out in the comment section of this blog, I guess.

 

Number 5- Strawberries

Strawberry Facts - Fun Facts About Strawberries

When you live in a dorm room sometimes it can be hard to keep fresh fruit for a long time, however this is not a problem for me when it comes to strawberries, that is in part because I eat them too fast for them to even kinda start going bad. Even though I wouldn’t say that they are my favorite fruit I would say that they are up there for sure.

 

Number 4- uveggie ramen

Nongshim Soon Veggie Savory Vegan Ramyun Ramen Noodle Soup Pack, 3.95oz X 4 Count

So now is where we start to get to the list of my favorite foods that I know I am going to continue eating even when I leave MSA, because oh my god they are so good. I have found that there are a number of really good ramens that I have discovered this year but I have to say that this one is my favorite. It originally was supposed to just be a ramen that me and my gf who doesn’t eat meat could enjoy together but it slowly has become one of my favorite ramens of all time.

 

Number 3- Brown Sugar Mochi

2 Pack] Yuki & Love Boba Milk Tea Mochi 60 count, Net wt 31.8 oz (900 g) -  Walmart.com

I found it surprising that this one was so high on the list, this is mainly because I absolutely despise ice cream mochi, however as someone who really likes boba this I was conflicted, but being it is both brown sugar and just normal mochi, I found that I really enjoyed it.

 

Number 2-Brown Sugar Boba

Amazon.com: Pocas Bubble Tea Kit, Brown Sugar - Instant Milk Tea Powder  with Authentic Tapioca Pearls for Instant Bubble Tea, 5 Kits Per Carton, 15  Oz : Grocery & Gourmet Food

These are so incredible, I found them at 5 below in Mccomb a few weeks ago and I need to go back, the ones at walmart are so bad, I NEED THE 5 BELOW ONES

 

Number 1-Trader Joe’s Orange Chicken

Trader Joe's Mandarin Orange Chicken Review – Club Trader Joe's

This will forever and always be my favorite dorm food as well as frozen food as a whole. I really enjoy trader joes for a number of reasons, however my only gripe with them is that they aren’t in MS. Which even though it makes me sad I guess I can kinda understand. And even though this is the hardest out of the ten to prepare I still stand by the fact that it is by far the best.

  1. Cooper I’m sorry, but how in the world do you keep all those snacks in your room. If it was me, they would all be gone day 2 cause everything in this blog looks so good.
