While covering a conference in San Francisco last week, I discovered the magic food for keeping one not only awake but super alert– wasabi peas! Forget caffeine, which gives me heart palpitations more than anything else. Popping a couple of wasabe peas will have every useful neuron in your brain shooting “wake-up” messages and bring you to a level of consciousness you’ve never been before. Try it when you’re sleepy.
P.S: Happy Birthday Sesame Street! And thank you for teaching me most everything I know!

I just bought a whole tub of these too! And after eating a handful (really quickly by mistake), I was tearing up. I’ll have to try them in place of caffeine….
Haha! A rookie mistake! Those things are soo addictive though. Even if you eat a small amount in succession you can get that brain-on-fire feeling!
