What's Your Favorite Dive-Bar Snack?
Recently I read an interesting article in 7x7 magazine about the pleasures of dive bars. It got me thinking about dive-bar food. You don't have to admit that you frequent dive bars, but 'fess up: What is your favorite dive bar snack?
Not Your Regular Nachos: Potachos
What do you get when you cross potato skins with nachos? Potachos! The best of both worlds, this tasty invention uses the base of nachos (crunchy potato chips) with the topping of potato skins (cheddar cheese, bacon bits, sour cream, and green onions).The recipe is simple and like all nacho recipes, easily adaptable to your personal liking.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Oven-Fried Fish & Chips
I love taking a classic pub meal and making my own version at home. Fish and chips are a pub favorite that is usually heavy on the oil. However, if you bake both the potatoes and fish in the oven — instead of cooking in a deep fryer — the dish is delicious and much lighter.

Food Review: PowerBar Harvest
I know that eating Olympic swimmer Kim Vandenberg's favorite energy bar will not improve my race time. But this dose of reality doesn't prevent me from at least wanting to try the PowerBar Harvest ($1.15) she likes.
The first energy bar I ever tried was the original PowerBar, which I thought tasted like minerals and nothing at all like food.
Food Review: Full Bar Caramel Apple Crisp
I enjoy energy bars as pre-workout snacks, but the concept behind FullBar is different.

Real Fast Food: Organic Food Bars
Looking for the healthiest fast food ever?
Organic Food Bars ($2.89 per bar) are the answer. This is the only line of organic bars "rich in phyto-nutrient dense sprouts and superfoods in a base of easy digestible, alkaline-forming vegetable protein for muscle and organ building, essential fats to promote a healthy cardiovascular and hormonal system, and complex carbohydrates for long lasting energy - without the 'crash' of most bars high in refined sugars."
Food Review: Special K Bliss Bar Orange and Chocolate
The calorie count on snackables keeps going down. I guess 100 calories was 10 too many, since I keep seeing snack-pack packaging proclaiming a 90-calorie content. One such food is the Special K Orange-flavored Bliss Bar I was handed at the train station by a very chipper young woman.
Food Review: Cascadian Farm Fiber Right Bars
Women need between 25 and 30 grams of fiber a day, and sometimes meals alone won't bring you to your daily quota. I'm always looking for quick snacks that are high in fiber, and when I came across these new Cascadian Farm Fiber Right Bars ($4) at the store, they looked like a tasty way to help me reach my goal.
