I've never been able to pin point a favorite snack other than "fruit". It's not that I don't like candy ..trust me, I can do some serious damage to a bag of assorted chocolate. I have a Snickers Pecan laying here on my desk....it's been there for a week. I'll get around to it.
Just about any fruit will do, but I'm not particularly fond of kiwi. It just has no taste to it. I know it's high in vitamin C and fiber, but so are a lot of other fruits and if I'm going to eat it, I want to enjoy it.
Watermelon is my go to when it's in season. A big ice cold slice on a hot day...mmmmmm. Don't eat it close to bed time. LOTS of water content and at our age, it's risky.

Peaches right off the tree. There's just no comparison to a fresh peach, still warm from the Sun, juice dribbling down your chin.... { I wish my trees would hurry up }

Mangoes would be next but you have to pick carefully because what looks ripe isn't and then you get that nasty almost kerosene taste.

Apples. I know that's kind of mundane, but an pealed, sliced apple with a hunk of extra sharp cheddar and some Ritz crackers hits the spot. With a grape soda to wash it down of course. Or maybe just some apple slices and peanut butter.

I've been a fruits and nuts kind of eater my whole life. If you gave me a choice between a box of expensive chocolates and a can of Planters Mixed Nuts, 9 times out of 10 I'll take the nuts.....and some fruit.
 
....comfort food is grilled cheese with thin sliced onions.

I'm cutting carbs so bread is out but my favorite thing to have on a grilled cheese sammy is sauerkraut.

I don't snack much but sometimes you have to a little. Fruit and berries if I have them, sliced apple with cheddar is always good, mixed nuts w/ dried cherries and cranberries and when I've just got to have something crunchy, plain pork rinds
