The History of Snack Food

Recently, I found what looks to be a fairly new blog (though the owner calls it a "newsletter").  It's called "Snack Stack," and can be found here.

Snack Stack is about the history of snack food, particularly the kind of snacks some of us now call "junk food."  Beer cheese, Pop Rocks (bonus points to readers who have been around enough to recall what those are!), Chick-o-Sticks appear on the list of recent articles.  

Right now, the articles I've read on the site are all about fads of the last 200 years or so.  But perhaps the author will branch out into different eras over time.

NOTE:  This site has articles that may be read for free, provided the would-be reader signs up for a free subscription.  However, other articles require a paid subscription to access.  So this isn't quite like the blogs of old.
