Are there any recent popular threads on best use of a snack credit?

[tgbanks3]

Such as the butterfinger cupcake at Starring Rolls, etc.?
TS decisions are somewhat easy to make by looking at a menu, and QS while not as simple, still have menus to look at. But there are just too many snacks to look through and decide.

moving to the ddp board. snacks are personal. you may think my bottle of soda is a bad use but it keeps me from spending cash so it is good for me is an example

Understood, but surely there have been discussions about some of the best values as far as cost, or some of the more unusual items, moreso than the standard coke, popcorn and Mickey bars.

I'm sure my reply is outdated since we were there for Christmas 2014...however when we were there we could buy any dessert at starring rolls and writers stop. The only thing that we could not use the snack on (that is obviously a snack) was the cinnamon almonds in epcot.

The Mickey Pretzel, Churro, Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bar and Mickey Ice Cream Sandwich are also a good value. They can be found at multiple locations throughout the parks.

The prepackaged snacks in the gift shops are also a great value if they are priced $4.00 or more.

Don’t miss the ice cream treats at Dinosaur Gertie’s.

Understood, but surely there have been discussions about some of the best values as far as cost, or some of the more unusual items, moreso than the standard coke, popcorn and Mickey bars.

There are better "values", to be sure, but even knowing that, my advice is that the "best" use of a credit is to get what you want, when you want it, without worrying about the cost. (Well, that, and get the Dole Whip Float.)
