As people spend longer nights at Bobst studying for their midterm exams, NYU Spoon wonders what snacks could possibly keep them going? What kind of food is fueling their brains? Spoon decided to ask five students at Bobst on a Sunday night what they nibble on when they study. Perhaps some of their favorite snacks will inspire you to study (or snack) a little harder.

“Let me think… salted rice cakes with peanut butter.”
“Interesting.”
“You can find the rice cakes at Wholefoods and they also have little packets of peanut butter. So this way you can have both sodium and protein. Oh and you can put raisins on it too.”
