Why Asian snacks have my heart | Food
By Jordana Mah, originally published on Being High Maintenance, not Bitchy
Be prepared for some serious food pornage. When it comes to snack foods, Asian snacks will always be my preferred choice. There are such a huge variety and originality to Asian snacks. If you're a sweets person, there are sweet things, and similarly if you're a salt person. Unlike western snacks, the flavours in Asian snacks are also very diverse. You may find snacks with flavours from anything ranging from plain Jane apple, to mango, to chicken, to octopus! Finally, Asian snacks can be healthier than western snacks, by offering healthy options like roasted seaweed and peas, dried fruits, and pickled vegetables! So next time you've got the munchies, veer away from the chip and chocolate bar aisle, and head to your Asian food aisle or grocery instead!
Shrimp chips: I literally grew up on these babies and could eat them endlessly. Crunchy and with a slight shrimp flavour, these made me super popular at lunch in elementary where I was that lone Chinese kid with the strange, yet delicious, snacks.
Roasted green peas: a good source of fiber, these roasted peas come in spicy and non-spicy flavours.
