    As a snack bar either of these are perfectly fine, check your local convenience store for some ma baker bars, they are excellent.

    I think the most common causes of the mid-afternoon slump are drinking too much coffee in the morning, and eating too much at lunchtime (esp. potatoes/pasta etc.). Also, knorr soup advertisers may have something to do with it too.
