orange soda (preferably cactus cooler), hotdogs (topdog), kettle corn, ice cream, cold pizza, and chips (pringles or doritos). they have gotten me by many a long night studying or writing essays. ive found that coffee doesnt really help me feel not sleepy, it only makes me feel jittery DURING the final the next morning. but constantly eating sure helps me stay up! 
that helped me gain 20 pounds in college too.

Guess what I'm munching on now?
A fresh, juicy, plump ripe mango. It's so damned sweet.
Not those funny green mangoes you have over stateside, a proper, orange as the sunset and juicy as a centrefold model in a juice factory.
Goddamnit it's soooo good.

We get our mangoes from the fruit store, they get them from Queensland. They are one of the three good things about summer:
1. Christmas
2. Mangoes
3. MWSF
That's it. Apart from that summer can go and get stuffed.
And peanut butter sucks. I can't believe how much peanut butter you guys eat over there, I reckon they'd put it on steak if I asked them. Blerch, peanut butter, ergh....
Now Macadamia Spread, that is the goods. Might go get some tomorrow.
Mmm pringles sound pretty good right about now. What I love to eat are those flavor blasted goldfish, the cheddar ones. Really hit the spot when I'm out driving at 4 a.m for my route.

Wait ... do you really apply the peanut butter before putting the bread in the toaster?
If a pre-bed snack is required, you can't go far wrong with two slices of fresh white bread lightly toasted and coated in butter.
When I wasn't working, I used to eat breakfast foods at night. Bagels, English muffins, milk & cereal, waffles, or a combination thereof. Good stuff.
i'd tell you what i like to munch on, but it would get me banned again.
i dunno, maybe carrot sticks dipped in gaucamole?
holy ****, thread resurrection
Wow this thread came out of nowhere.
As far as midnight snacks go...I'd say my fave is some tostitos with that really-bad-for-you-but-so-good salsa con queso. Mmm. So good.
If you're trying to pull an all nighter, however, it's better to get some lasting food rather than a sugary/carby snack, because you'll crash really fast. Protein is usually good, peanut butter works. For all nighters I like PB&J sandwiches, because the jelly gives you a little sugar high but the peanut butter sticks around and keeps you going.
