That Midnight Snack

7 comments

Hello! It's great to be a part of this community. This is my first time writing here and hopefully it doesn't stop. The idea of the community captures me as I'm one midnight owl too. I've been for a long time. When I tell people they wonder how I cope. My school did a good job on me I guess.

This post is coming late in response to the prompt but I feel I still have to make it because of the topic; also being the one that drew me to the community. I couldn't find a nighttime this previous week to write it since the post has to come in the night. I was busy in some ways but I'm making it today.

So, this is me writing this post at about 02:17 AM (WAT). It's deep into the night. All are asleep and I'm here awake; making this post. I can hear the sound of some dogs barking and cars passing－some midnight travellers.

To the prompt, I must say that I'm not much a fan of late-night eating, not now at least. I used to be good at it but for some reason, I'm not much there. My own concern by the way. But when you work at night, you need something to keep you. The subject of snacks then comes in. Thankfully, snacks are not heavy food so they are good for this purpose.

I tend to take more liquid at night when I'm awake. It doesn't cancel the need for a snack though, and that's where this particular biscuit comes in. It's called Supreme Cabin Biscuit and serves the right purpose for me. I found myself trying to get it in the evening for my nighttime use. For some reason, I like it and find it a good midnight snack.

The biscuit is simple; not expensive and easy to get. I don't have to order or make huge efforts to get it. All I need to do is just step out to the shops close by and I can get it. The availability and affordability make it much of a choice to go with as a midnight snack. I'm enjoying its company.

This is not actually a new biscuit to me. I used to eat Cabin Biscuit when I was younger. But it wasn't that much liked because we wanted the sweet ones. This biscuit is not the sweet type. Considering the effect of excessive sugar in the body, I put it into consideration down to snacks even. This makes a good one for me.

I think this particular Cabin Biscuit is kind of different from what I used to know. There's an improvement perhaps, or I just grew up. However, something that gets me going with the snack is its crunchiness alongside the less sugary taste. It allows me to enjoy every bit of the pieces till they are finished. I was even thinking of getting a carton. Haha.

When it's nighttime and I'm up awake, sometimes I take one or two of these, followed by a cup of water and I'm well rolling into the night. Eyes all sharp as a midnight owl.
