‘Girl Dinner’ Is The Hot New Food Trend And It’s About More Than Charcuterie Boards
Girl din-NNNeEEE-Rrrr-RRRrrrrr.
I’ve been having this little jingle running through my head for the better part of a week, because I can’t. quit. watching. the videos on TikTok of “Girl Dinners.”
You might be wondering, “WTF is a ‘Girl Dinner’?”
Well, let me tell you. It’s a conglomeration of things.
Some call it “Snacky Plates.” Some call it “Adult Lunchables.” And, our friends across the pond call it “Picky Bits.”
It’s kinda like charcuterie boards without the board. Or, there COULD be a board. I guess it’s up to you.
There can be just random snacks — like WHATEVER you want to eat.
Everything from pickles and bagel chips, to ice cream sandwiches, to handfuls of popcorn and plates of cheese, to hummus and pita, to salami and brie cheese, to — well, you get it.
It’s basically a punch of tasty flavors — all the stuff that sounds good — together in one sitting.
As girls, we need a bit of salty, a bit of sweet, a bit of savory, a bit of carby carbs, and cheese, AMIRITE?!?
Do it! Put it all together and call it your “Girl Dinner.”
There are no rules. It can be random. It can be organized. It has to be delicious.
Hey, you can even have leftovers — a bunch of different things — and call it “Girl Dinner.” It just has to have good flavor and make you happy.
“Girl Dinner” Versus “Boy Dinner”
Some people are even comparing their “Girl Dinners” — a bunch of tasty flavors — to “Boy Dinner” — meat.
Now, I’m not saying you can’t have meat at your “Girl Dinner.” You do you, Boo.
I’m also not saying that if you’re a dude you can’t have “Girl Dinner.”
Do what makes you happy. Do what makes you smile. Do what feels good to your soul.
