a handful of peanuts in a glass of coke every night. Something about the salt, nuts and coke makes for a good snack/drink something... I dunno. I like it though.
circa 1961~65 I worked as a tire buster in a retread shop.....primary break for those of us who didn't do coffee was a sack of salted oily Planters peanuts poured down the neck of a tall cold bottle of Pepsi cola......re-energized us before there was such as 'energizer drinks'.
Another plus, was the shop was across the alley from a potato chip maker. We could take a break, amble over to the Chip Foreman, & talk him out of a really greasy sack of still-warm reject potato chips. Add Pepsi in the back of the warehouse.....lounge around until the boss cruised thru looking for loafers. Made it almost worth going to work.
Of course in the half century since then my habits have changed.
