Fig Newtons, Fritos, Salad, Ice Cream, Jelly-Belly Jelly Beans, Sandwiches, Smoked Almonds, Breads (of various types), etc. I like to eat.

Windwalker, I think that the most romantic dessert is Strawberry Shortcake. Plus I can eat about a pound of it in one sitting. Which may not be so romantic and attractive, but it's good.

I think the questions is more what don't I snack on at the keyboard. Right now I'm having chex mix and pepsi (hearty breakfast,hey?) But there is also an orange and some dried cranberries on my desk. I'll also snack on whatever happens to be in the vending machine.

I love plain grapefruit, no sugar but it's kinda messy. I hate it when the mouse and keyboard get sticky.

Jeez skully, could you have left yourself any wider open? My brain thought up about 3 off-color comments I could have made about that "sticky keyboard" almost instantaneously.

I don't snack a lot at the computer, but I do eat two meals a day at my desk, except on weekends, when I only eat breakfast in front of my computer at home. Damn, I spend a lot of time staring at one of these screens! Other than that, I'm with Sass...coffee is what I'm usually imbibing whilst typing.

And another thing...
...how did we get on snacks in thread titled, "Thinking of you..."

Maybe that's where the sticky keyboard comes in...

Yum!
If I look really carefully down between the keys, I can see some crumbs. I think it was part of a sandwich or maybe a bagel. Then, there's some orange stuff on the U key and a big coffee stain above the F5 key.

I just turned my keyboard over and shook it. I think I got enough for a meal to fall out of it. Ewww! I'm going to clean now...

At work, or my laptop-no contest. The home desktop unit-HA! Used by a six year old and two teen age boys. I'd be very competitive.

yeah, the tuna helper we had for dinner the other night was a little icky, but i remember thinking that if we ate it after a good loooong hike, it would've been the best thing ever!

I know, lyra! Light your keyboard on fire and it might be like a real campfire.

I was well-trained in my youth: no foodstuffs come within 10 feet of this box. Also, I'm just too much of a klutz.

If you want a roaring, crackling fire on your desk without the usual damage, check out the Blaze screensaver. It's the seventh one down the list.

I had a Pringles buddy at the office. We would split a can of pringles every morning and call it our 'stress carbs.' Goes good with coka cola.

Delicious!
