    Shouldn’t 21a be "word after coffee"? Nice themes.

        A bar trick!
        • I K Snamhcok 2s · 2022-10-30T15:02:29.282Z
          Thought of KITKAT quickly, “but that’s not a bar food.” Then … “D’oh!” Good one, Mikey!
          • Darth 🤓21:28 · 2022-10-30T16:49:09.433Z
            Aww...I should have gotten it sooner. Not tapas or dips! Lol

              One of my very favorite bar foods!! EXCELLENT meta
              • whimsy 🤓15:03 · 2022-11-02T02:57:22.118Z
                Duh! And I even passed some of the white chocolate version out last night! Great fun in spite of my tripping up on all the food clues and entries (I found Idaho potatoes, Swiss cheese and Pop Tartts! :) ) -- Thank you, Mikey!

                  Another fun grid to fill. One of my favorite "bars".

                      Oof. I had two incorrect submissions where I just guessed from the pattern, and where I also misinterpreted "bar" food. And then I gave up for several days, and only went back to read the nudges just now. Nice puzzle, and I second Abide's comment!
