Munch Munch Munch

What food/snacks you keep in your workstation? Here are mine (from left):


1) Usana meal replacement dutch chocolate formula
2) Tiger chocolate squares and round milk biscuits
3) Corn flakes
4) Toffee candies
5) Goreng-goreng snack (fried crabsticks)

I actually don't like to munch while I'm at work, it makes me fatter. Really.

But the problem with me is, when I see know there are food/snacks (right underneath my drawers), I must faster finish them. So you may say, the best is I don't buy any and refill the jars once I've finished them, BUT (but but but) I still buy and stock them up because it makes me feel "more secured" when I'm at work. 

Laugh all you want, yes, I feel "more secured" when I have food inside my drawer. Anyone here same with me ahh?

  1. Good morning, Louiz! Aiyo I cannot do that. If I have snacks in my drawer or workstation or anywhere within 20 feet radius, I have to eat them. Cannot tahan especially those crispy and crunchy snacks. So no, I don't have any in the office or even at home (except the naughty candied bacon but mou chor already) because I know the consequences hee..hee..

    So all that you munch in the office or you let your colleagues eat?

    1. Of course all I munch, no sharing.. If they see, I pretend to close the lid and put it back in my drawer, haha..

  2. Ha ha ha ha, laugh at you I did.....
    My office also has the same female colleagues like you who often scared me with their junk food like dried squids, jackfruit crackers and durian kopi. Adoi, all the smell but no one cares. I stopped snacking too as I agree that it was fattening so I only have coffee sachets in my drawers. Just enjoy lah, fat fat so what?

  3. Good morning princess!
    I am the same, if I know there are snacks available, I have to finish eating them. It doesn't feel right to leave the snacks alone :D .. That's why I don't stock up now. Good thing is the company has an in-house convenience store, so whenever my mouth itchy, I will just drop by to grab Pringles or more recently, Pepero.
    Last time I used to buy those big pack of Cheezels with 10 or 12 small packs inside. My friend ask me why not buy those whole pack, cheaper. I said, if I buy whole pack, I will eat whole pack at 1 go, 10 or 12 small packs at least can last me 4 or 5 times :D

    1. Prince charming, same here! You know, i have a BIG packet of Mamee too, inside got 12-15 smaller packs inside one, you know what I mean right.. Colleagues ask me the same thing too, but I think I'm very selfish, I would think, if I eat one big pack, I have to share.. If I just eat a small pack one at a time, nobody would ask coz the packet is already so small..

    2. Your colleagues so kind one ah? If my colleagues, they will ask for one small pack from my stash instead :D

    1. Hello Ania (hope I'm right), nice meeting you and thanks for visiting my blog..
      Oh yes, previously I even have instant mushroom soup packs, Pringles and Roller Coaster snacks, but I got out of control and I ate non-stop the whole day, and I got fatter.. So now, it's just biscuits :)

  8. i dun usually keep food at workstation coz similar to u, i will try to finish them when knowing there is some food in the container....So, nowadays i dun make it a habit to munch food when working, other than sweets & chewing gum...haha! but that is only occasionally when im on sugar low situation.

    1. Yep, I tell myself the same thing.. After this batch finishes, I'll just stock up on sweets and gummy stuffs like Mentos..

      Delete
  9. Hahaha those snack jars look familiar, same like what I have in my stash. Except I keep more 3in1 white coffee satchets, collagen satchets, coco crunch, milk premix with nestum, and mentos. You never know when you'll be stranded in the office and need food right? lol. Our office pantry is also well-stocked so I'm sure controlling weight around here is very difficult.

    1. The pantry has Milo, so previously I stock up on Nestum and Quaker Oats.. But I don't enjoy those, so I changed to goreng-goreng stuffs like fried crab sticks, keropok, Mamee and Tiger biscuits, feel more satisfying than corn flakes and Nestum, teehee..

  10. wah, you keep your snacks so nicely and neatly inside containers ah?? those containers must be reused and recycled ga la right?? must be that you brought from home those leftover CNY cookies you cannot finish at home, either you munch in office or share with your colleagues to "clear stock".. and then wash them in the pantry and then use them for "future stocks".. ngum mou?? :p

    Replies
    1. Yes, clever boy, those containers, aiya, sekali pandang, already know it's from CNY cookie jars la.. Yep, all recycled.. Put in office, never take home.. When I buy new biscuits, then I re-stock into the jars lor..

  13. I don't have container to store my snacks.. just dump them aside in the drawer as they are lor.. that's why ah like this no good, cod I'll most probably wallop the whole packet lor.. like I don't want to still keep them with the torn packaging and scared tomorrow basi or attracts ants mah.. so "one don't do, two don't rest" might as well finish everything lor.. that's why ah, die lor if open one packet I'll eat everything geh lor.. so when comes to snacking, I am one packet one packet come geh, not like normal people one piece one piece come!!! *faints*

    1. I also try to buy those with individual/smaller packets those kinda packaging when I shop for biscuits/tid bits.. But hor, those are more expensive one leh.. Like soda peang, you buy one big packet without individual packets ahh, more cheap ger wor..
