chanachur/chanachur makha
muri/makha

shingara
shomucha
chaat
piaju
beguni
papor
chhola
nimki/nimak para
pakora
pani puri
toast biskut
narkel and kashondi
halim (added)
bakaorkhani (added)
chaap (added)
Bombai Toast (added)

Where is halim? that's the only thing which can upset my stomach with guarantee.

Jadukor · #3 April 25, 2012, 08:58 PM

Is there a name for "kathal er rosh with muri"? Used to love that
Edit: just realized it falls in the sweet category unless its a bad kathal

Bonglababu · #4 April 25, 2012, 09:23 PM

Have you guys tried this? It's called bakharkhani. Not that savory though.

**Zunaid** · #5 April 25, 2012, 09:30 PM

Too dry for me - goes great with suta kabab though. Old Dhaka has the best.

Khoi is not popcorn. The rest are either not traditional nor savory.

Savory savory savory

But you speak of moa

Dilscoop · #11 April 25, 2012, 10:47 PM

Ya. That. I was saying it in my head. I just didn't know how to spell it.

uh! Uh! I got another one. It's not necessarily a "snack." But Idk where else you would put it. I had it long time ago.

It's NOT narrikel. It's not the regular white stuff that you crack open and cut out and yet. Wait.. not it doesn't even come from narrikel. Ah fuzz this. I hate these type of threads. Screws with my brain and memory.

Dilscoop · #12 April 25, 2012, 10:59 PM

Taal? Is that a thing? There is a little thing inside that... No that's not it either..

Mango in fruit roll-up style. Not dried mango. That's different. The other kind? Is that a snack?

**Zunaid** · #13 April 25, 2012, 11:14 PM

Oronnya - you are right. I meant bhel puri. Maggi noodles - how could I forgot. My mom not only used to make that for afternoon snacks - but also lunch for school. She would also add some alur chop or tikiya kabab.

I am only interested in savory snacks, not sweet.

But thanks you anyway. If anyone is interested in making a sweet snack thread - hint, hint.

**Zunaid** · #21 April 26, 2012, 05:16 AM

Rian - Tell us more about, "Taki Macher Puri (old Dhaka)"

Naimul_Hd · #22 April 26, 2012, 06:25 AM

Moglai
Kebab
Chap (not chop)

No ?

Tigers_eye · #23 April 26, 2012, 06:38 AM

Amra. We used to take that after school or in tiffin.

Biggest snack with the greatest impact. "Shiddho dim" at feri ghat. Dozon'er niche kotha nai.

Tigers_eye · #24 April 26, 2012, 06:40 AM

Also roadside chanachur beside schools are way different than regular chanachur.

Tomato and them watery things makes it taste so different.
+++
Motorshuti bhaja.

Winner of course.

I remember first jokhon Mr. Cookie ber hoilo. Phenomenon!! Before that I use to Love Nabisco's biscuit. Reddish-Pink packet 12 or 10 in one. Half of each had one design and the other half had different designs.

Same thing with Polar Icecream. But That was more for the boxes rather than the content. Nevertheless, similar impact.
