Episode 33: First They're Salty, then They're Sweet! (Sweet + Salty Snacks)

Welcome to The Snack Show with Jami Fallon!

We are talking sweet + salt snacks today! And it's been scientifically proven that salt + sugar together makes the best kind of snack. And thanks to the magic of our brains & bodies, there's a whole process as to why. But you'll have to listen to the episode to get a deep dive into the research. We are ready to give you all sorts of ideas of what the best sweet + salty snacks are -- both homemade and store bought. We also share some hot takes on payment platforms (looking at you PayPal + Venmo).

Best news of all: we are premiering our LISTENER Snack of the Week! In each episode, we are going to start sharing YOUR snacks of the week so record a 30 second message and we will share it on the pod! Let us know your name, where you're from, and your snack of the week!
