Road Trip Snacks

Do you have a favorite snack to eat on a road trip?

When I am going to be in the car for any amount of time, I must have my sodie.  Where I am from, sodie is pronounced i.  With a long e.  Instead of saying soda, we say sodie. 

Anyway, I’m not much on drinking caffeine and I usually just have one can soda a day.  (Did you noticed I said, soda, instead of sodie?  Soda’s come in a can, sodie’s come in a fountain).  But, when we are in the car, I gotta stop at the local convenience store and get me one of those great big sodie’s for the trip.  That’s the only time I do that.  I guess it’s a treat thing.  Who know’s.

And of course, my husband just gives me you know what about that too!  He just thinks I ain’t right about that and this is the same man that eats banana’s and mayo sandwiches!  And for the record, he likes to take a few sips from my sodie when I’m not lookin.  ;)

Now as for food on trips.  I’m not much on eating on the road.  Heck, I have enough problems with my weight, I don’t need to add any snacks to make it worse.  Besides, when you are on a road trip, you know you are going out to eat for your meals and you also know that they calorie content of road food is much higher.

So I figure, if I have a giant Diet Coke sodie on the road and not eat snacks, but eat the road food.  I’m not doing too bad.
