Half, or 49 per cent, have been hit with hunger pangs when out and about, only to find they had nothing to fill the void. While 18 per cent always like to have a handful of nuts on them in case of a hunger emergency, more than one in 10 - or 13 per cent - would opt for a wrapped pastry. The poll of 2,000 adults found half wouldn't dream of departing without at least two bites-to-eat on hand. Not eating breakfast at home is one of the top reasons people secure something tasty for later. A spokesperson for La Boulangère, which commissioned the study, said: "Nobody wants to be caught short in a hunger storm. "Having something on hand in case you get peckish is a very good idea so having longer-lasting, indulgent edibles in the cupboard is wise for when you might be eating on the go. "But more short-term consumables are also really great for a small bite to eat, like a piece of fruit." The study, via OnePoll, also revealed first thing in the morning and mid-afternoon are the times when a stashed morsel is most appreciated. Of those polled, parents were more likely to pack some emergency food when they're on the move - 42 per cent - than those without children, just 14 per cent. Meanwhile, 74 per cent say they still find it useful to hold nibbles in their bag for their hungry teenagers. And 45 per cent of them said they often pack some snacks in their bag "for later" whether they're with family or not. A sim){kind=link}
