Thursdays and Fridays present a challenge for those balancing work and classes, particularly around mid-day hunger. Suggestions for discreet and low-odor snacks during class include dried fruits, sandwiches (avoiding strong-smelling ingredients), smoothies, and nutrient drinks like Ensure. Eating quietly is emphasized, with recommendations to sit towards the back of the classroom to minimize disruption. Some participants share personal experiences, noting that while faculty generally allow eating in class, it’s best to avoid foods with strong odors, like tuna. Alternatives like cold V8 juice or leftovers are also discussed, with a focus on convenience and nutrition. The conversation highlights the importance of finding practical solutions to maintain energy levels without causing distractions in the classroom.

It depends on the bagels you get and where you buy them. REAL bagels aren't that bad, but a lot of these chains sell ones that are very high calorie and high sugar content, and don't taste much like a real bagel at all...sweeter and squishier. It's like the difference between whole grain bread from a bakery and Wonder bread.

yeah, I just stick with flax bread. I guess I've never considered looking in the health food section for bagels at Fred Meyer.

http://www.lunabar.com/products/index.cfm?documentid=28&location=1,0" (note that that's Luna bars, not merely Clif bars (most of which taste like a blend of cardboard, styrofoam, and old tennis shoes)). They're $1.00-1.20 per bar and a whole nutritious meal, most are just under 200 calories, lots of fiber and protein, low fat, loads of vitamins and minerals... and did I mention their yumminess? They can leave your fingers sticky or gooey, so you might want a wet towelette thinger.
