Despite her quick rise to Playboy Club glory, Snickers Baby feels her hottest when she’s just chilling on her couch. She sat down with us to chat about being a serious foodie, her dream superpowers, and the Gordon Ramsay dish she still fantasizes about.
PLAYBOY: To start us off, where are you from?
Snickers Baby: I’m from Maryland but I was born in Alaska.
PLAYBOY: Woah. How was growing up in Alaska? Do you remember your time there?
Snickers Baby: I remember only what my mom used to tell me, honestly. She used to say how it was difficult to drive around. You had to charge your car up. We weren’t really living outside of the base. But on base, it was fairly normal. I’m an army brat. I’ve been one since I was in the third grade.
PLAYBOY: What was the first thing you ever dreamed of achieving?
Snickers Baby: Honestly, I wanted to be a vet. That was my first dream. I wanted to help animals so bad. When I was 12, I had hamsters and I took care of them they were my babies. But when they got sick and they passed away, I realized that being a vet a big chunk of my job would be putting down animals. And I didn’t have the heart for that. So my first dream actually never got achieved.
PLAYBOY: Understandable.
Snickers Baby: So, I kind of transferred my dream to kids. I went and got my Masters to work with kids and be a school counselor. But then PLAYBOY came into my life and it was like an adrenaline that I just couldn’t get a hold of completely. Working with the Playboy Club is the first dream that I truly accomplished.
PPLAYBOY: Amazing. What makes you happiest?
Snickers Baby: I’m a foodie. I love going to restaurants, sitting down, and just enjoying the essence of food. You know, how some people think about the essence of music. No, my obsession is food. I’ve been to Gordon Ramsay’s steakhouse. I’ll go to those little hidden gems in in Virginia. Eating a fancy meal with people I’ve invited…that makes me so happy.
PLAYBOY: Has there ever been a meal that changed your life that you still think about?
Snickers Baby: Gordon Ramsay’s Beef Wellington. I think that really changed my life because I’m not the type of person—like, I wouldn’t say I’m a pescatarian or a vegan—but I don’t really eat a lot of meat. If you put a piece of steak in front of me versus a piece of fish or seafood, I’m gonna go for the seafood a majority of the time. But the Beef Wellington…I don’t know. They put this black truffle salt on it and it changed my palate. So now when I go to different restaurants I try to seek that same type of happiness.
PLAYBOY: You’re sort of chasing the rush of that specific real experience.
Snickers Baby: Well, I just love trying different foods because you never know what food is gonna make you so happy that you have to keep coming back to it again and again.
PLAYBOY: What do you want to change most about the world?
Snickers Baby: Honestly, I think I want to change all the hate that’s in the world. I mean, I know you can’t have love without hate, but it just seems like hate is a lot bigger right now than love is.
PLAYBOY: What turns you on?
Snickers Baby: When I think of what turns me on, I think of my love language. I like physical touch. Not necessarily sex, but just cuddling. When I’m on the couch and my husband comes over, and he just cuddles with me and we watch TV…I don’t know. It just turns me on. The energy of “wanting to be around me” if that makes sense. That definitely turns me on.
Cause it’s just like…I don’t have to be sexy all the time. So, when I’m on my downtime and I want to just relax, I don’t want to necessarily be sexy. I feel like that’s when I’m the sexiest because I’m not having to put any effort. I’m just here.
PLAYBOY: What food do you reach for when you’re feeling blue?
Snickers Baby: I have these pretzels, they’re buffalo flavored. And I get these dumplings, and these seaweed snacks. And I put the pretzel on the bottom, the dumpling as the middle, and then I put the seaweed to hold it. When I’m sad, I eat that.
PLAYBOY: Follow-up question: are you pregnant?
Snickers Baby: [laughs] I don’t know why it’s a guilty pleasure food! It just makes me feel so much better cause I don’t eat chocolate. Everybody always says, “chocolate makes you feel better.” I do not like chocolate. I don’t like the taste of it. So I have to find other things that satisfy me. And that’s my combination. We don’t judge!
PLAYBOY: Absolutely! What do you believe is your strongest asset?
Snickers Baby: I treasure my honesty. I feel like people that come around like my friends, my family, they come to me because they know I’m going to be honest with them. They know that I care enough to tell them whether they’re right or wrong because I love them so much. So my honesty is my biggest asset. It goes hand in hand with my personality.
PLAYBOY: What is your dream superpower?
Snickers Baby: I want to be able to read people’s minds, but then it’s like every time I think about it…do I want to get in everybody’s head? That’s the counselor in me. Some days I want to be able to be The Flash. He’s my favorite superhero. I want to be able to run super fast where I can open up a time vortex and go into the future.
PLAYBOY: Describe the perfect slice of pizza.
Snickers Baby: I’m not going to lie…pizza’s not my thing. I would love to describe my favorite pie though. My favorite pie would be a sweet potato pie. It’s been my food dream to be able to recreate one from scratch, but I’m not at that level yet. I’m still learning how to make mac and cheese.
PLAYBOY: What’s your catchphrase?
Snickers Baby: “Just be you.”
PLAYBOY: What meme, tweet, or viral video speaks to you?
Snickers Baby: The Bop House. Their videos are so cringy sometimes, but it’s just like you can’t look away. I’m obsessed. I can’t help it.
Snickers Baby is on The Playboy Club. Talk to her now.
