I'm an ex-cigarette smoker trying to find something good for snacking on when playing BF2.

Requirements:

1) Must be available in the USA
2) Must be clean and not leave any grease, chocolate, nor Cheeto dust-like residue on fingers
3) Must be edible with one hand during w+k autowalks
4) Must be delicious

Bonus points for anything low-calorie.

Thanks for any recommendations.

Beer's good but I got a DUI from a Chinese cop on Dragon who saw me swerving in a DPV.

FOOD snacks I mean. I've got my Grolsh and my Gatorade.

no, we just don't get jerky over here.
Its nuts and fosters for me BTW

Your going to be pushed to find something without a 'residue', just have to have something to wipe your hand.
15 seconds is enough time to drink / snack / drink / wipe / spawn.
(hmm, that sounds a bit sick, sorry, not intentional)

God i hate it when a medic revives me without asking and i am in the middle of eating.  "Arhh, sitting duck", and I'm dead again, oh well another drink.

Finland. Like the couple of fellow Europeans have already stated in this thread, beef jerky isn't widely available here. Something to do with the BSE scare, I guess...

A quick google reveals that there _are_ sources for us Euros too, e.g. http://www.wildwestjerky.co.uk/

...but these ain't the real thing. Jack Link's Hickory Smoked they are not.

Me, I just love the stuff. Great with beer (and BF2)

Most supermarkets sell beef jerky Its in a thin clear packet, Im not eating that stuff it looks like leather and dryer than a nun's nasties.  Probably just as salty too.

Fixed that for you.

As to my recommendation, water.

try liquorice root ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquorice_root)  works especially good for ex smokers, contains no fat, no sugar, and leaves no residue.

liquorice root sounds interesting, but it sounds exactly like the kind of thing you could never find in the US.

Lots of great recommendations so far, wow. Really like the idea for sucking candies, I'm sure I could find some sugar-free lollies and the like.

Europeans, do yourselves a "favour" and track down Jack LInk brand beef jerky. Here, I found a place for you Brits to order it online.  That's a damn small size though.
