8. Qdoba. Studies show that Qdoba tastes 10 times better when eaten after midnight. Studies also show that if you put “studies show" before what you are about to say, people are more likely to believe you But whatever. The chicken quesadilla with a side of guac, pico de gallo, and sour cream is literally heaven in your mouth. Find a friend to go with and you can split chips and queso. What a great little early morning study break!
7. Pizza Bites. Any food with “bite" at the end of it automatically infers that you will be able to get it into your mouth that much faster, because whoever created it decided to pre-cut it into adorable little bites for your eating convenience. Shout out to you, pizza bites man. These are less than $4 at Target Express, and you can freeze these until you and your roomies need a pizza bites study break. These will energize you so you will be ready to continue studying in no time.
6. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Yes. Some chocolate and peanut butter goodness is the perfect end to pizza bites, or Qdoba, or anything salty. If you have reached the final stretch of studying and need something to get you through those last few minutes, a peanut butter cup (or three or four) is the perfect solution.
5. Homemade sandwich. This is always the cheapest option. At T Express you can get a loaf of bread, some salami, cheese, lettuce, and mayo for less than $10, which is basically the price of one sandwich if you go to Potbelly or Jimmy John's. This will keep you satisfied for a week and is so easy. If you really don't want to spend money, you can whip out all your sandwich making supplies and you and your roomies can collectively rejuvenate yourselves.
4. Giant cookies from Papa John's. These are great. If you can't decide if you want a pizza or a cookie, you could honestly just get both or you could just get a cookie in the shape of a pizza. Problem solved. These are also a lot smaller than actual large pizzas so you could have an adorable little snack to yourself.
3. McDonald's fries. If you're feeling extra needy, two orders might be necessary. Also, a large coke. Make sure you have some pals to share these with because two large fries and a large Coke could get lonely. All-nighter, here we come!!
2. Potbelly shake. Potbelly inconveniently closes at 10 p.m., so if you need a shake make sure you get it before then and put it in your freezer. Then at 1 a.m. when you need a pick-me-up, your perfect Potbelly shake will be only a step away.
1. Nutella and pretzels. This snack is an excellent combination of salty and sweet and will definitely energize you, let me tell you. This is another super cheap purchase that can be made at Target Express, and another beautiful moment you can share with your roomies. Exams and papers here we come!
