Mexican food is so popular that it has spread to numerous countries around the globe, but for a truly local snack many Mexicans opt for quesadillas.
A user called SeymourWG said: 'In Mexico it's a plain Quesadilla. Quick, easy and pretty good.
'That or a taco de frijoles. There are always beans and tortillas in the house. Quick and convenient.'

Korean food is another type of cuisine that has spread around the world in the last few years. Their local afternoon snack is slightly more involved than a cheese quesadilla though.
A Reddit user from South Korea called Parkjdubbs said: 'In Korea, probably mixed rice.
'Find whatever in your fridge to put into your bowl of rice, a spoonful of red pepper paste, and finish it off with some sesame oil to mix it altogether.
Another Korean user called Oobear added: 'I propose the following dish: Spoon some rice into a bowl, crack a raw egg over the rice, lay a slice of processed cheese over the egg, microwave until the egg is set and eason with soy sauce.
'Most Koreans I know have had this served to them by a busy parent.'

The Japanese also used rice as their snack staple, with several Japanese Reddit users claiming that onigiri was the go-to afternoon eat.
To make the dish they created a rice ball with a filling like pickles or fish that could be found in the fridge, with dried seaweed on the outside.
Many European online contributors, including those from Norway, suggested a variation on the traditional sandwich.
A user called Starkicker said: 'Slice of fresh bread and butter topped with brown cheese and some sort of jam (ideally fresh strawberry or raspberry).'
In Northern Ireland, it seems the sandwich stills reigns supreme, as long as it contains some beloved Tayto crisps.
A user called DaangerZone said: 'Ham and crisp sandwich in Northern Ireland (potato chips for you Americans out there). The crunchiness added to the sandwich is incredible.'
Meanwhile in Czechoslovakia, the sandwich took on a more rustic form, with a user called Xanthippa saying: 'Growing up in Czech, it was firm rye bread with lard, salt and chopped onions! Yum!'

Down Under, the locals prefer their sarnie with a sweet and crunch texture, with a user called Shezzam saying: 'Fairy bread. It's the best Aussie childhood food.
'Fresh white bread, butter and 100's & 1000's.'
In Iraq, locals enjoy feasting on a mix of tahini and date syrup on bread, while in Israel, pitta and hummus is a firm favourite.
But Syria and the Philippines had two of the healthiest snacks.
Syrian Reddit user Teh_fizz said: '[We eat] Water melon and halloumi cheese in Syria, or halva and halloumi cheese, or olive oil and oregano/thyme spice mix.
Meanwhile, a Fillipino user called Egalroc 4said: 'Bagoong spread on mango slices is a Filipino treat.'
