Seven Eleven - South Beach Style

My diet gurus send me little notes via the internets daily. Today's message addresses the dilemma many of us face at 3:17 A.M. when you stroll into the Stop-N-Shop-N-Stuff drunk, high, stupid, hungry or all of the above:

Convenience Store Snacking
What should you do if you find yourself hunting for food in a convenience store? First, keep your hands off the highly processed foods that are filled with trans and saturated fats, including most chips, cookies, snack cakes, candy bars, nachos, and frozen drinks.

The next time you're at a convenience store, take a few minutes to look around instead of simply grabbing something off the shelf. You may be surprised to find individual packets of roasted nuts and seeds.

Yummmmmmm.....roasted nuts and seeds when I want a Super-Double Cherry Coke Big Gulp, 4 taquitos, a package of Funyons, and a box of Ding-Dongs.

Seeds and nuts?

Shit - it's easier not to eat. Just gimme a Diet Red Bull and a box of Mini-Thins. I'm going to an after hours.
