Summer time 'Snacks'?

As it's a tad nippy and DAMP here so I decided to have one of those little 'snacks' we used to have as kids;
A hot mug of 'OXO' with a slice of bread broken up in it, in fact I've had two. Mind you when my girls were growing up and because we were so 'POOR', we used to have this as our 'Sunday dinner' :-(
What 'snacks' can you remember having as kids?

Its icy cold out here today and this is making me think of one of our favourites. "Vetkoek" - don't know what your equavalent would be called

but it is essentially deepfried (Iknow....very unhealthy

) bread dough, and we would fill it with Jam, or cheese, or Curry for a more filling meal

Bread and butter pudding would follow a meal usually and I still have one now and again just for myself but for a 'snack' I would have it cold, out of the fridge.
Even a 'Weetabix' spread with butter and then sugar sprinkled over would be a tasty snack too.
Banana sandwiches.....yummy, I'm starting to dribble now

After frying bacon for Dad's breakfast, Mum would let us boys wipe a slice of bread across the frying pan, oh I can taste it now.

Sopapillas (I think that's the spelling). It's tortilla dough sliced and deep fried then sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Our Mexican Mom had a great mind for making us kids snacks. Too many to try to remember.
