I tend to snack when I'm bored, which is more often than I'd like to admit. I'm currently snaking on Black and White trail mix from Target. Basically chocolate and yogurt covered peanuts and raisins.

What about you? Both healthy and unhealthy snacks welcome.

Cut up carrots like sticks and use them to scoop up the hummus if you don't already. It's even more delicious and healthier than pita bread/nachos/... and adds a nice crunch to it.

Do you prepare them somehow or you just buy the carrot and cut it? Sorry if it's a dumb question, I love hummus and I'm curious about eating it with carrots, it's just that I've never eaten them raw

I guess either way works. I'm in Europe, and over here, we usually buy our fruits and vegetables from the fruits and veggies grocer, and not the supermarket. So in my case, I buy them hole, peel the outer layer with a peeler, then cut them in half longwise, then continue cutting them longwise until they are about 2-3 centimeters thick (maybe 1/4"??? not sure about imperial system).

You can also buy baby carrots (the name is a lie) from a supermarket and you're good to go.

Side note: baby carrots are actually full size carrots that are "ugly" looking, so customers tend to avoid them. Instead of throwing them away, they cut them into what looks like baby carrots and sell them that way.

2-3cm would be around 1" btw. 1/4" would be roughly 6mm.
