Whether we work from home or have a retail space, everybody has a "snack stash" Yes, even the health nuts have something they keep in the drawer to save them from certain starvation while working.
Mine: I always keep those pretzel bites stuffed with peanut butter, (Sam's has em). They are great with Coffee or Diet Coke. Just a handful a day. Sometimes none at all, but hey, it's my stash.

A refrigerator full of meals prepared in advance.
I don't fool with snacks, I eat a solid meal of about 400 calories every 2.5-3 hours. Usually some lean meat, lots of veggies, and a little healthy fat (nuts or olive oil/dressing).

I always have a few packets of a meal replacement powder and a tub of whey protein powder handy. I'm like Mike P. and eat every 2.5-3 hours, so a 50 gram protein shake thrown in a cup with water hits the spot when I don't have time for a solid meal.

We have a snack box that we can purchase from, it has biscuits, potato chips, chocolates, sweets and snack bars. We also have cans of cold drink. It's an awful temptation but I manage to stay away from it!!

That last post was, like most things, only part of the story. A customer gave me a very nice bottle of Labrot & Graham "Woodford Reserve" for Christmas, bless her heart.
At the moment I have an iron pan on the coal stove in the back room, and I'm roastng some chestnuts. Love the smell. In the fridge there's a couple of raw eggs, but those are for making egg size for gilding. No beer right now; we went on a health kick and are taking a break from alcohol until St. Patricks Day. Mostly a weight-loss thing, and making a habit of finding other ways to handle stress, instead of having two or three drinks after work.
