Attention VEGETARIANS - this snack is for YOU!

Just in time for SnackManiac's birthday, Denny's is set to release this veg-friendly treat on August 24th:

(Thanks to fellow snacker, Kathleen, for bringing this news to my attention.)

Your eyes do not deceive you readers, that is a grilled cheese, stuffed with MOZZIES!!!! I am overwhelmed by this innovation. I assume mozzies were "invented" because you can't hold a stick of delicious melted cheese in your mitts. But what happens when you wrap a mozzie in melted Kraft singles??? You wrap THAT in buttery toasted white bread, what a META-snack this is!!!!

The "fried cheese melt" is served with fries and some marinara dipping sauce, a true homage to the Italian culinary tradition that obviously brought us the MOZZIE.

And guess what, this snack bomb is only $4, so you can definitely get two at my birthday dinner!!!

BREAKING: New snack discovered on vaca

Check out what I just sampled here on the beach!

The pretzel M&M!!

The commercials are very funny (although somewhat crass.)

The snack is pretty good, but not great. They seem a little too healthy. The sweet and salty combo is good, but why mess around with a pretzel when you can have a PEANUT?! Am I right?

GUAC-TIME!!!

So Mrs. Obama told us to grow our own produce. I followed her instructions because the SNACKMANIAC is a true PATRIOT.

I planted an avocado pit and boy, is it going gangbusters!

Check out this 'cado that G harvested tonight (and he is not even a professionally trained farmer!!)

And the internet told me that I would have to wait at least 10 years...

the snack is back

Two snack items from the weekend have required that I return to the snackwaves without (further) delay.

1) The CHEESE TRAY on the train. Have you people snacked on this treat on the great american railways? Please take a look at this:

There is also ANOTHER cheese, an EXTRA SHARP cheddar from VERMONT. It is hiding under the cheddar. Guess what? This snack is a BARGAIN at $3.75. Nikki and I enjoyed this treat both to and from NYC this weekend.

2) You know who else I JUST saw enjoying a treat? BARRY OBAMA. We were both out for a night at the Kennedy Center (the SnackManiac runs in very sophisticated circles.) Anyhow, the Obamas were in the Presidential box at the KC. When Barry came down to his seat, he was munching on something! What kinds of snacks do they have in there???? Have any readers been lucky enough to snack in the Presidential box???

Here are my top three guesses:

- Fritos
- beef jerky
- the Amtrak cheese tray

Any tips from the INSIDE???
