Every awards show, us Allure staffers are scrambling to cover all the hair and makeup looks, corresponding with makeup artists, endlessly scouring social media for BTS footage, and typing until our little fingers are gnarled. However, it's hard to nail every makeup product and hairstyle when you're working hungry, and even more difficult when all these snacks are parading themselves across your screen, just looking delectable and scrumptious. Couture is one thing, but let's be real — it's fantasy. I'm never going to afford couture. Even if I could, I would probably do something boring instead, like invest in real estate. Hell, I'm probably never even going use that Rent The Runway account. A well-groomed and well-suited snack, however, is free. Snacks are, for all accounts, a feast for the eyes, as it were. They are truly the most democratic, guiltless dietary indulgence. So, I hope you're hungry — but even if you aren't, a quick scroll through this menu will no doubt have you going, "Eh, I mean, I could eat…"

The Fab Five
Queer Eye's Fab Five is the Costco pack of snacks. Look at this wholesale collection of endless deliciousness. Jonathan Van Ness is everything in that sleek bun, Bobby Berk giving me minimal glam, Tan France can rock a salt and pepper like no other, Antoni Porowski is the epitome of the drooling emoji, and Karamo Brown can melt a grilled cheese with just one look.
Jonathan Van Ness
I swear I'm not playing favorites but look at that 'stache. That sleek bun and that 'stache — that pairing alone is better than anything a sommelier could upsell you on.
Milo Ventimiglia
If Jess Mariano was the late night McDonald's drive-thru of snacks, the This is Us glow-up for Milo Ventimiglia has transformed him into the Kind bar of snacks.
Trevor Noah
Oh what's that? A snack, you say? Yes, Trevor. You're a snack. Never change.
Bill Hader
The best snacks make you smile and laugh. Both activities are allegedly very inflammatory towards calories, but that's not what this is really about.
Sterling K. Brown
Sterling K right here is the type of snack whose commercial has an infectious jingle that you never forget.
Darren Criss
Ah, the bearded snack. A red carpet beard is equal parts risk and reward, and when it pays off, you get this sculpted glory. I'm not mad.
Eric Bana
I'm just going to say this once and that is that Eric Bana is an eternal snack.
Jason Winston George
I stan a snack who clearly knows he's a snack
Finn Wittrock
I will never forget Finn's portrayal of that psycho, spoiled circus-phile, Dandy in American Horror Story: Freak Show, but that non-pompadoured slick-back and tux is making me suspend my disbelief's disbelief.
Kumail Nanjiani
Remember what I said about snacks that make you smile and laugh? Kumail is all that and a bag of chips — which may be something your mom might say, and she would be correct. Listen to your mom.
Jimmi Simpson
Does Jimmi Simpson know he's a snack? Because he is. Someone tell him so that he is aware. I think that would be nice.
Joe Keery
This Kurt Russell circa Escape From New York swooshy prom mullet is the topping on every dessert, the crest of a soft-serve ice cream cone, and the salt-toss of every salt bae. *Chef's kiss*.
Andy Samberg
This post-SNL Andy Samby is the Smartfood White Cheddar Popcorn of snacks. Seems too delicious to be a "healthy" snack but he's not not healthy, you know?
John Legend
An EGOT snack at the Emmys — indulgent? Perhaps. Very welcome though.
Justin Timberlake
JT is like the type of snack that everyone loves for a reason: it's good, it's always been good, and you can find it at probably every deli.
Lakeith Stanfield
Look at this confident snack. White tux. Steely gaze. The cravings are strong with this snack.
Kit Harrington
Texture is an underrated feature of a good snack and Kit Harrington's hair…and whole face, and body —hey man, we all saw your butt in Game of Thrones and that's in the vault forever — wait, where was I going with this?
Max Minghella
I loved Max Minghella in The Mindy Project, but it's his sensitive, loyal "Nick the driver guy" in The Handmaid's Tale that will forever hold him a place in my snack pantry. Forever.
Nikolaj Coster Waldau
While the fact that even in the fictional Game of Thrones universe, king Tywin would name his kids Cersei, Tyrion… and then throw a Jaime curveball in there is a bit hard to swallow, NCW is… definitely not.
Stephen Colbert
Stephen Colbert is a snack that has the perfect pepper-to-salt proportions. Looks at that excellent seasoning. Excellent.
Colin Jost and Michael Che
And obviously the amuse-bouche of snacks, the hosts: Colin Jost and Michael Che. I think Leslie Jones can agree with me here.
