Let’s talk food today, fellow Pittsburghers! We know a thing or two about good food, don’t we? And, that includes snacks. Who among us doesn’t crave something sugary-sweet, salty, or chocolaty halfway through the day, before bed at night, or even in the middle of the night? That’s when we turn to one of our favorite uniquely Pittsburgh snacks to satisfy our hunger and help us make it through the day/night.
Summer just wouldn't be summer without a hearty helping of Potato Patch fries at Kennywood. They make the perfect snack or even meal. How do you like yours best - topped with bacon and cheese or drenched in cheese?
Mmm...mmm...craving something delightfully delicious and sweet to help you make it until dinner? Then, make a beeline for Prantl's Bakery, the home of the famous burnt almond torte. Treat yourself to a one-person portion or buy an entire cake. After all, you have to have a snack tomorrow, too, right?

Popcorn's not just for munching on at the movies anymore. With Pittsburgh Popcorn, we can have a scrumptious snack every day, if we want. Even better? We're not limited to buttered popcorn. We can order from such delicious flavors as Wisconsin cheddar cheese, crunchy caramel, and chocolate chunky caramel. Of course, Pittsburgh Popcorn also makes a buttery movie-style flavor.
In the mood for something salty? Then, how about a traditional soft pretzel from The Pretzel Shop on the South Side? Of course, you can have that soft pretzel topped with salt. Or, opt for such taste-tantalizing flavors as sugar and cinnamon, pepperoni mozzarella, or tomato basil.
Of course, our uniquely Pittsburgh snacks need something to go with them. Can you think of anything better - or more uniquely Pittsburgh - than Turner's Iced Tea? And, if you don't like iced tea, Turner's has plenty of other delicious drinks - chocolate milk, orange juice, and fruit punch, for example.
