Korean Snacks

Here's some of snacks that Emily and I have encountered over the past 14 months (has it been that long already?) in Korea.

Available From A Cart on the Street:
Baked sweet potato (no butter, sour cream, etc. - just peel & eat with your hands)
Various dried seafood (including, but not limited to, squid, octopus and cuttlefish)
Fruit on a stick (pineapple, honeydew melon, strawberries dipped in melted sugar and covered in sprinkles)
Nut Cakes (Small sweet cakes with a variety of nuts available: peanut, walnut, chestnut)
Cotton Candy
Ice Cream
Silk Worms (always bubbling hot, ready for your enjoyment!)
Some sort of little hermit-crab type shellfish (like Spitz - just suck out the guts and spit out the shell!)
Waffles/Pancakes (the pancakes are stuffed with honey & peanuts and taste, strangely enough, exactly like cinnamon buns)

Other Snacks:
Cuttlefish Peanut Chips
Shrimp chips (like shrimp flavored puffed rice)
Dried corn
Chestnuts
Roasted potatoes with salt
Duk (Not like quack-quack duck, but a sticky rice cake)
Ramen noodles (like Ichiban noodles - they're everywhere!)

All in all, Korean snacks tend to lean more towards salty, healthy and vegetable-esque. Basically, Korean snacks are real food instead of processed forms of non-food (eg. chocolate bars, candy, pop, chips, etc.). It's all very admirably healthy and certanly unsatisfying.
