1. String Cheese

photo by sarah.atkins
There are two kinds of people in this world:
1) Those that eat their string cheese in four hasty bites, also known as Chompers.
and…
2) Those that gracefully de-string their cheese and savor every last strand, aka String Heads.
2. Fun Dip

For those of you allergic to fun, allow me to explain how Fun Dip works:
You lick condensed sugar sticks called “Lick-A-Stix” and dip them in flavored sugar. Your own saliva provides the necessary stickage.
Dipping sugar into sugar may seem like a nutritional felony, but the way your eyes light up with delight when the sugar rushes to your brain makes it all worth while.
3. Alphabet Soup

Forget hooked on phonics. All the brainy 1st graders are hooked on alphabet soup.
4. Lobster

If you aspire to put on a show with your food, lobster is the way to go. You can make them dance or even speak via ventriloquism.
A dinner party without a lobster show is not much of a party at all.
5. Pumpkin

Any food you can carve a face into is barrels of fun.
6. Candy Canes

This festive candy doubles as a weapon and is commonly placed on tree branches.
7. Pop Rocks

If you have ever wondered what the few moments before a volcanic eruption or earthquake are like, place some Pop Rocks on your tongue.
P.S. – Mixing with Coca Cola leads to instant death.

Fun dip is DA BOMB. It doesn’t get better than that. (Though string cheese is pretty cool).
Hi Flying Llama Fish: Both the “Fun Dip” and the “Pop Rocks” were favorites of mine when I was small. There’s nothing like the sensation of little explosions in your mouth
I’ve always thought octopus is a fun food too, something about the tentacles.
I didn’t know it was allowed to eat string cheese any other way than de-stringing it.
Hi Flying Llama Fish. I remember Pop Rocks very well and I’m definitely a cheese de-stringer. Dentists must love the Fun Dip; we used to eat those when I was a kid.
Hi Flying Llama Fish – I’m a string head, who used to make my candy canes look like the one in the picture.
I like alphabet soup..and glad that I’m one of those brainy 1st grader!
I laugh at the picture with the lobster!! How on earth can anyone eat that?
I haven’t met many chompers in my day.
