We often take the simple pleasures of life for granted, but it is these simpler pleasures that keep us going. Case in point: food! And snacks, munchies, and the like are the ultimate comfort food, our constant companions.
Have you ever wondered how many occasions in the daily life would remain unfulfilling or dull without something to munch on? Hangouts are not complete without it. Meetings at the office require it. Watching your favourite game demands it, so do binge-watching the latest web series. There’s no denying that binge watching and binge eating go hand in hand! But also, when you have to burn the midnight oil in the lonesome night, snacks, munchies, and various forms of comfort food is your soother, possibly along with your favourite cup of caffeine.
With all that said, one doesn’t even need an excuse to grab a bite to replenish not just the body, but the soul as well.
