I'm willing to travel anywhere between the Gator (Gainesville) to the Mouse (Orlando). Any suggestions on healthy eating options into the wee hours???

Are you asking what foods are healthy or where can you buy them after midnight?

Why wouldn't you just go to Publix and keep your refrigerator stocked with healthy snacks? I don't see the point of driving that far for a healthy snack that late at night?

I didn't get the point either.

Me and Dagwood Bumstead like a nice midnight snack. I choose a half peanut butter and jelly sandwich...or...I sometimes fry a quick egg. Cookies don't do it for me in the middle of the night. We keep leftovers and they are quickly heated and mostly really yummy.

I wouldn't want to drive around and find a restaurant. I don't want to change out of my jammies.

Go to Aldi, buy some food during the day, and after your midnight run, go home and eat.....

I’d do a smoothie at your house. Fresh fruits, whole milk Greek yogurt for protein, etc. easy, quick refreshing and cold to drink. Got a Vita Mixer??

Some good chocolate ice cream takes care of my cravings.

Depends if under weight or over weight?

I must one of few that dark chocolate makes me have stomach ache or sick in my stomach. White chocolate or milk chocolate don’t bother me.

Exactly what I was thinking Doc.
If you're a runner you should be carbo loading.

No, OK, but you'll drive 2-3 hours RT in the middle of the night to Gainesville or Orlando for a healthy snack? These posts get sillier by the day. How much do they pay you to create these threads? :1rotfl:
