Snack food is an important choice that most of us face on a daily basis. Not just any snack food will do. The best snackers have specific reasons behind why they eat a certain finger food. If you’re unfamiliar with making such hard choices in your anti-diet, fear not, for this article will tell you the meaning behind the snack food that you eat. May your emotions and your munchies never contrast again.

1. Tostitos

You're eating Tostitos chips because you went to the store with the whimsical feeling of doing a salsa thing, but then forgot to get the salsa. Now you're feeling blah.

2. Fritos

You're eating Fritos because you feel like you've been rejected a lot lately, and love that Fritos practically curl around your finger.

3. Popcorn

You're eating popcorn because you're watching a movie; or, you're desperately wishing you were watching a movie instead of whatever you're doing.

4. Hershey Kisses

You're eating Hershey Kisses because you feel good getting some work done, even if that work is unwrapping each individual Hershey Kiss.

5. Oreos

You're eating Oreos because you hate your teeth, and unlike most other snack foods, Oreos let you see the damage you've inflicted.

6. Chips Ahoy

You're eating Chips Ahoy cookies because you're nostalgic for those times as a kid when your grandma made chocolate chip cookies. But your nostalgia doesn't overpower your laziness, so there's no way you were actually going to make chocolate chip cookies.

7. Cereal, with your hand

You're shoveling down cereal by the fistful because you want to feel good about eating something that qualifies as real food, while also feeling blissfully decadent after you finish the whole box.

Same thing as above times three. You might be a psychopath.

You are a Scandinavian fisherman.
