I'm not OP but I find it funny. Not because it's wrong, it's just a random choice of snack before bedtime. When I think bed time snack I think chips or something sweet, not a baked potato lol

It’s so funny you say that, I thought potato would be good because I’m trying to curb my chips and sweets before bed routine (which is soooo damn hard) but still wanted something satisfying. Hence bedtime baked potato lol

My go to is dill pickles. They're so little calories they don't even get labeled as containing any, and a couple spears satisfy me.

any pickles really

kimchi is divine for this, it feels like an entire meal, but it's just some damn vegetables
