Another repeated Quick Poll!

https://www.proz.com/forum/poll_discussion/365800-poll_working_tired_which_would_be_your_1_choice_as_a_pick_me_up_snack.html

I'll give the same answer:

An espresso coffee with one or two squares of a good dark chocolate does the job for me!

Vitamin "C" Feb 5

Unless I'm really hungry, a tall cup of coffee, cocoa or chai does the trick for me: just enough sugar, milk and caffeine (yes, dark cocoa has a bit, as do some decaf black teas and coffees) to keep the brain humming. But if I'm starving and it's close to mealtime, it's a protein emergency.

...sorry to say! But everybody has different preferences. Enjoy it.

In Germany, we actually have a "pick up" snack (real name of the product). From a company called Bahlsen. I like that one.

A generous helping of fingernails chased by a pint of homemade moonshine, while lamenting the state of our industry.

Only two items Feb 5

A piece of corn sugar, orange flavor, and a large cup of coffee, and I'm ready to roll on.

The notion of having a snack as a pick-me-up seems rather strange to me. I have breakfast in the morning and lunch at lunchtime, and that's usually enough to keep me going throughout the working day. I also have dinner quite late, usually after 9 or 10.

I might occasionally have a cup of (instant) coffee in winter, or fruit juice or water in summer when it's hotter, but I don't usually snack between meals.

A muesli bar and an espresso. Feb 5

It works even better if you're wearing odd socks.

Depends Feb 6

I try to have healthy snacks such as avocado toast or a mix of nuts, but in the case of the poll question, I would go for something like the brownie or just a chocolate or maybe some cookies (although I usually don't feel like I need it and I have set times for my snacks, hehe).

Handful of nuts Feb 6

I tend to have a handful of nuts if I'm hungry, or some fruit. I have cut out most of the sugary treats on the list because I've become more aware of how bad they are for you recently. If I'm tired I would try to get away from my computer for a while and have a short walk or even a nap. I try to plan my schedule so that I don't have to work through extreme tiredness as I know I don't produce good results when I'm in that state.

Probably Feb 6

Probably a banana. Quick, easy, healthy, filling, cheap. Oh- and tasty.

Nuts are great, but also deceptively calorific, especially if one eats them with raisins...
