<p>Snackbridge is donations specifically for bulk snack foods.
Such foods include, but are not limited to:</p>
<ul>
<li>ramen noodles (5 individual packs for ~ $1),</li>
<li>chips / crackers / poptarts, and</li>
<li>cookies / pastries / trailmix.</li>
</ul>
 
<p>Donating to Snackbridge allows us to stock up on snack foods.</p>
<p><b>Benefits</b></p>
<ul>
<li>Keeping snack foods in-house means you don't need to leave the space and break your concentration whenever you need a quick snack.</li>
<li>Buying in bulk allows economies of scale - we get more food for less money.</li>
<li>Sharing food is another way to be excellent to each other.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>We like the donations that jingle, but we prefer the kind that folds.</b></p>
<br />
<b>Update: January 30, 2011</b><br />
For anybody that ever wishes to buy snacks, here's what I know:<br />
<ul>
<li><b>what gets eaten</b>: ramen, honeybuns, cosmic brownies, and poptarts.<br />
poptarts in general tend to get eaten very quickly.<br />
blueberry poptarts seem to always get eaten faster than any other flavor.</li>
<li><b>what doesn't get eaten</b>: cup o' noodles and cereal.<br />
for cup o' noodles, i would've thought the convenience of having the cup would've made them go faster than ramen.<br />
for cereal, the hassle of finding milk keeps them from getting eaten.</li>
</ul>
 
<b>Update: January 5, 2011</b><br />
Snackbridge is working quite well!<br />
If there are particular snacks you'd like Noisebridge to keep around, leave a note in the
Snackbridge donation jar or mention something to Patrick.<br />
Several people have already suggested more fresh fruit and health food, so we're going
to try and find some good deals on those and stock up.<br />
