What I classify as a snack

Do people really consider candy a snack? That’s the question that has been on my mind after coming upon a YouTube video where people created a song that contained the line “candy is not a snack, if you think that you are wack” and honestly I couldn’t agree more.

A snack is something people eat between meals to hold off their hunger. I really don’t think someone should stuff their mouth with candy to subside their hunger. I mean yeah, of course people can eat candy, but classify it as a snack? I don’t think so.

Whenever I hear the word snack, I imagine Cheetos, Chex Mix, or Cheese Itz, not Sour Patch Kids and Twix. Candy is more of a reward or an occasional craving that people get. Hey, I’m not shaming the people that eat a lot of it, because sometimes I do too, I’m just saying that it shouldn’t even be in the same category as other snacks like potato chips and goldfish.

So in conclusion, no candy is not a snack, if you think that you are wack. Just kidding, but no seriously it’s really not. Snacks are savory and help you from dying of hunger. Candy is something you eat after dinner as a reward for finishing it. But everyone’s one opinion is valid, this just happens to be mine. Just because we may not see eye to eye on the candy situation doesn’t mean we can’t get along. Right?
