Someone's gotta eat all the leftover candy from Halloween, and we are happy to volunteer.

Are you thinking about your next snack right now?

With Halloween season over, you probably have lots of candy bags around the house. For some, it's what's left after trick-or-treating with the children, and for others (like me), it's the leftovers of a celebration that consists of indulging in treats you don't usually eat. It's part of the Halloween spirit: get some candy for your family and friends, so you can have an excuse to also get some for yourself. And what better moment to take those bags out and start digging through whatever is left?

You're probably working right now. Going through the motions of the day, trying not to get too distracted. But when your stomach starts making horror movie noises, it's time to take a break and have a snack. In the meantime, here's a hilarious food memes collection that will make you even more hungry. Pro tip: you can scroll through it as you have a delicious morning break. May I suggest a classic? Coffee and donuts never disappoint, or, if you're more of a savory type of person, a well-made sandwich will hit the spot as it always does. Bon appétit!

Learning how to prepare the best snacks is an art in itself. Not everyone has the skill, or the practice, of putting together some ingredients to make true masterpieces. It's all about trial and error, experimenting and saving all those TikTok recipes that look suspiciously easy to follow.

The amount of effort invested in this is actually crazy

Cooking is like the adult version of those laboratory board games, in which you were encouraged to mix and match some colorful liquids to create new exotic potions. That’s basically the same experience with food. Sometimes, you’ll end up making the perfect love potion, as in everyone is going to fall in love with the dish you’re serving, or you’re going to end up with an evil-looking potion that will transform whoever tastes your food into a frog or something. You can also say that cooking is a trust exercise.

For example, if my sister is the one doing the cooking, it means my trust will probably reach the sky. As in, I will trust her to add some ingredient she wasn’t supposed to use and make the whole thing taste insane. Then again, I cannot be the one to judge. My first time making apple sauce pancakes, I mistook sugar for salt. Don’t get me wrong, I still made them look amazing. So much so that my entire family left them as the best for last dish, to have to spit it out once they actually tasted it. It's definitely not an exact science. That said, being the one eating the food is the most fun job in this entire process. You could say I’ve become a pro at that part indeed. The other side, the actual cooking side, is still a work in progress for me. So, get your snacks and have them with a side of comedy. Laughing out loud at these hilarious memes will make the food taste even better, I promise.
