Study Snacks/Sweets

boneless

What do you all fill your wee little faces with whilst attempting to justify your presence in the UCD Library?

I'm on a jelly sweet trip at the moment...

Economaniac!

My old exam favourites are Starbursts/Opal Fruits (i don't dsicriminate) and Fruit Pastilles (the original ones). They give the old sugar burst and aren't too loud!

TheVan

Off sweets and chocolate for lent but usually those black and white minty sweets down in the SU shop for me!

Alternatively Minstrels or from time to time, a Double Decker!

Blowfish

them flapjack things in the science shop, i'm addicted to the yogurt ones

Mr.Nice Guy

I like the sour skittles. I tried them whilst in UCD and liked them alot.

On a completely unrelated manner, I wonder why I have this toothache?

i salute this topic!

*salute*

but unfortunately as tis lent i cannot eat sweets but merely talk about my favourites:

[1] Happy Hippos - are these not the greatest thing ever! its a soft crispy hippo shaped piece of joy from Kinder!
[2] Haribo - i amnt picky when it comes to Haribo, cola bottles, tangfastics, starmix - i swing all ways.
[3] Kinder Bueno - yum!!
[4] Galaxy Caramel - for when you feel that bit more classy.

Anything jelly based gives me a headache for some reason, so I stick to chocolate, or popcorn.

I really hate people glaring at you for making noise while snacking.

Starburst Joosters are my usual study chow, or when I'm at home it's raisins. This semester will be the first time in my life I've studied without coke... so I'm also drinking lots of mineral water while studying.

Food is for wimps.

Starvation is the key to Summer Exam success.

I can't eat while studying (easy knowing I never study, eh?). Water. Maybe Diet Coke. Or the big bottles of Pepsi Max, if I'm truly verging on skint.

I avoid that like the plague now. Bought a bottle there a few weeks back and it ended up bursting in my bag. Next thing I know there's brown stuff all over my books. It looked like my dog had taken a crap in the bag.

Luckily the library books escaped unharmed.:o

I understand MNG.. the cartons are designed really badly, I've had many an occasion where i've opened the fridge and its totally covered in chocmilk because of the way the lids dont close properly. Its very upsetting. Usually the little cartons dont last long enough to be put into my bag!

Will only Ballygowan do?

Ballygowan water is Limerick water after all.











(Just joshing Panda, I'm a Tipperary water gal myself, and for good reason! )

I'm addicted to the go ahead yoghurt bars from the vending machines under the library ....... sooooooooooooo tasty.

Also hungry hippos - divine brilliance.

I can't touch anything with lots of suger in it if I want to be able to concentrate for more that three seconds at a time. I like orange or grapefruit juice and of course coffee. I like crisps but don't like being the noisy git eating crisps in the library. Oh and I need my morning dougnnut to get me going:)

Any Galaxy product, Refreshes and gallons of Pepsi and Pepsi Max. Thank god for those big bottles!

i'm eating one right now! and drinking pineapple juice for some strange reason...

If you're studying, actually, bananas are the best - something to do with potassium ("brain food").

This nugget of information brought to you by Gav's housemate last year, who got 580 points by eating nothing but bananas while studying.
