Munchie: Food we can't quite swallow

Frozen banana at The Red Apple Sweets and Eats

Ingredients: Really, who came up with this? "Let's see here ... what if I dip a banana in chocolate, roll it in chopped peanuts, then insert a wooden stick and freeze it solid?" Good thing for him it worked out, otherwise ... well, put it this way, that idea may have been considered nuts in more ways than one.

Skinny: Though these boardwalk treats aren't as plentiful as they once were, they're still part of the standard-issue beach experience. I have a confession, though: about halfway through I got tired of the banana and just ate the chocolate and nuts off the outside. And I wonder why I still don't have a girlfriend. .... This is one of the healthier frozen sweets you're going to find, but "healthier" still isn't exactly "healthy," now is it? Stop fooling yourself and bite off as much as you can chew.—Jason Rhodes
