Honestly perfect snack food if you want something more substantial than a bag of chex mix or something. Might be difficult to get your hands on though depending on where you are in the country.
Eat them plain, eat them with dip, eat them with sliced cheese, eat them any way you feel. You can dip them in guacamole or French onion dip or ranch or salsa or baba ghanoush or anything. Truly the most versatile chip/cracker/crunchy vehicle for dip. Also fairly healthy!
It's far too easy for me to burn a few hours digging through Wikipedia hyperlinks and trawling through yards of text. It's a very fun way to gain cursory knowledge about possibly obscure topics, and you can find some pretty bizarre stuff if you know where to look.
It can give new perspective on what's actually around you. A lot of the time, the veil of the windshield and fiberglass can keep the outside world as more of a backdrop instead of a lived-in space.
I'm admittedly a sucker for a local paper, and that increases tenfold when it shines light on otherwise underreported stories through a progressive lens. In Gainesville, this manifests in The Gainesville Iguana. You can find them at pretty much any record store, library, etc... for free!!!! The ads also expose you to local establishments and groups you might otherwise not have known about. There's a sense of community that emanates from the paper that you don't get in any of your other standard publications.
