By  SAMAIYA JULY ‘28 and SELASIE AMEMASOR ‘28

We’ve all been there, waiting at the gates, hoping for the clock to strike 4:00 p.m. on Saturday. The choices are endless, but whether you realize it or not, your go-to snack says a lot about you. So what does your favorite treat reveal about you?

Chips - The Reliable Classic. You like a little crunch, a little salt, a no-nonsense approach to snacking. You’re practical, easygoing, and not one for unnecessary risks. Whether you’re reaching for classic potato chips or something spicy like Takis, you know exactly what you’re getting, and that is just the way you like it.

Slushies - The Sugar High. You’re always on a sugar high. You don’t just enjoy the drink, you experience it. You bring the energy, the excitement, and the inevitable brain freeze. No matter what Frazil you get you are always full of energy and sugar. 

Gummies - The Fun One. You’re playful, colorful, and maybe just a bit indecisive. You don’t take life too seriously, and your snack choice reflects that.  Whether it's gummy worms, bears, or sour belts, you’re always up for a good time. You probably make great last-minute plans and somehow get everyone to go along with them. People gravitate toward your energy, and you’re rarely seen without a snack in hand.

Chocolate - The Comfort Seeker. You appreciate the finer things in life. You don’t just snack you savor. You might be a little dramatic, but that’s part of your charm. You’re the friend people turn to for advice, deep conversations, and , let’s be honest, extra snacks. 

The Fridge Snackers -  The Low - Effort, High-Reward Choice. Cookie Dough, parfits, yogurts, and frozen fruit. You’ve mastered the art of efficiency, grabbing what you need and moving on with your day. You're practical, independent, and just a little bit impatient. Some may call it the lazy option, but you know better, it’s just smart snacking. 

The Custom-Made Snacks - The Perfectionist. You could’ve picked something simple, but no. You need your exact combo cooked straight from the Grill kitchen. You know what you want, perfected over time, and you’re not afraid to ask for it. You’re a perfectionist, a planner, and a little extra. But hey, if you’re going to eat, why not make it exactly right. 

The Fried Snacks - The Crowd Favorite. Chicken tenders, fries, mozzarella sticks, if it come out of the fryer, you’re on board. You live for comfort, simplicity, and instant satisfaction. You're a reliable friend, the one who always suggests “something easy” for dinner, and the person everyone knows they can count on. You don’t get caught up in complicated choices — you just want good food, fast. And honestly, no one can blame you.

So next time you’re standing in line, ready to grab your go-to snack, just remember your food might be saying more about you than you think.
