Let’s get one thing straight: not all snacks are created equal.
Some are airy. Some are crispy. Some crunch so dramatically they echo in your plush soul.
And so, for the sake of snack clarity (and personal snacking joy), I present:
The Official Plushie Crunch Spectrum™
Ranked from softest squish to loudest crunch—with commentary, bias, and crumbs.
Example: Marshmallows, fresh baked bread, room-temp banana
Texture: No resistance. Pure yield. Like napping in snack form.
Doggie’s Rating: “Great for snuggling. Not great for excitement.”
Mini Blue Glow: Blue = soft satisfaction.
Example: Muffins, soft cookies, sandwich halves wrapped in love
Texture: Gentle give, slight chew. The hug of snackdom.
Doggie’s Rating: “Ideal for emotional eating (and I’m often emotional).”
Example: Croissants, toast edges, rice cakes
Texture: Light crunch on the outside, soft on the inside. Balanced.
Pandy’s Notes: “Good for quiet reflection. Pairs with tea.”
Mini Blue Glow: Mint green = contemplative munching.
Example: Chocolate chip cookie (edge zone), animal crackers
Texture: Moderate crunch, mood-lifting snap
Doggie’s Rating: “The default. The standard. The crunchy control variable.”
Example: Hard pretzels, biscotti, kettle chips
Texture: Serious bite. Demands commitment. Echoes off walls.
Warning: May interrupt quiet time and make Pandy sigh.
Mini Blue Glow: Amber = alert but impressed.
Example: Corn nuts, raw carrots, freeze-dried apples
Texture: Volcanic. Startling. Crunch you feel in your paws.
Doggie’s Rating: “Best enjoyed when everyone’s already awake.”
Side Note: Good for asserting snack dominance.
Example: Ice. Just… ice.
Texture: Not technically a snack. Technically a threat.
Mini Blue Glow: Magenta = immediate concern.
Crunch is more than sound—it’s snack personality.
Some days call for the silent strength of a soft bite. Others need a crunch so loud it startles the dust bunnies.
Whatever your texture, choose what fits your fluff.
And if you’re not sure what to reach for?
Grab two.
Science says it's allowed.
