Everyone has a favorite after school or after work snack, whether it is something that your mom gave you growing up or something that you snuck to the corner store to buy yourself. As school starts back up this week, the Dish asks her crew what they after school then and what they eat after work now.
Josie Gordon, Senior Culinistaä, used to eat cheetos and corn chips after a long day of learning. Now, she opts to wind down with vanilla yogurt and Peace brand cereal.
Jennifer Ophir, our Culinistaäwho was recently in Italy teaching traditional Tuscan cuisine used to adore Stella D’Oro Swiss fudge cookies and Dipsy Doodles. Her tastes have changed and now she nibbles on tamari almonds and medjool dates.
Amanda Elliot, another outstanding Culinistaä used to eat green beans or Crispix after school. Her mother also used to bake bread that Amanda ate with butter and cinnamon. These days, though she still adores her childhood treats, she eats mostly nuts.
Nick Horween, Culinistaä and Business Manager, routinely ate apples and cheddar cheese after reading, writing and arithmetic He still adores cheese, but lately, he’s been eating cottage cheese atop greens with truffle oil dressing.
Sarah Chang, the Dish Executive Assistant who’s taking time off in Bueños Aires until December used to stop off at Whole Foods for sushi with her mom on the way home from school. Now, sans mom, she crunches on rice crackers wrapped in nori that she gets from Sunrise Mart.
Katie Han, Press Gal Extraordinaire, used to eat carrots but only if they were served to her with French onion dip. She was also a fan of ham and cheese to tide her over until dinner. Now she goes straight for anything chocolate.
Yours truly was a huge fan of carrots, too. I also liked tacos from a certain place, and I’d get to go if I was with my friend and her babysitter. I still like to eat carrots, but lately I love a piece of toast. Sometimes I top it with honey and sometimes salmon caviar I found cheap in Brighton Beach.
Hopefully the Dish favs will give you a few ideas of your own as you buckle down this fall!
