Is the idea of snacking an American phenomenon? Ariel Leve ponders this question in an interesting and lighthearted article today. Inclined toward snacking herself, she views British aversion to it as snobbery: "'We don't really have snacks in Britain,' my English friend sniffed. Really? High tea? If you're having scones at 4pm you are snacking."
I know I was always told that it would spoil my appetite too close to meals. But we were often allowed a drink and a biscuit after school. To be honest it isn't really a question we've ever worried about at the Red Lion. Come and see us at lunchtime and you're welcome to choose from our full menu or our snack menu.
