Salad Bar Hacking is the practice of attempting to get round 'one bowl, one visit' rules at salad bars by building huge towers of food, etc. Usually attempted by broke university students trying to 'get their money's worth' or general people whose eyes are bigger than their stomachs.
A Chinese engineer named Shen Hongrui has written a ~100 page PDF on different salad bar hacking techniques to be used in Chinese Pizza Huts. Unfortunately, his method became so popular all the Pizza Huts in China scrapped their salad bars.
The method involves building a solid base in the original bowl, ideally with chickpeas and potatoes. 'The foundations are very important, so choose dry and strong material,' he says.
Next, hackers must create a layer of carrot sticks radiating from the centre to act as a scaffold or a larger 'plate'.
Then use slices of cucumber or blocks of fruit to build the tower's walls.
Finally, fill the tower with the food you are most keen on eating. All you need after that is a steady hand to carry your platter back to the table.

Alice: Hey Bob, let's go salad bar hacking!
Bob: Sorry Alice, I don't think I've quite got the guts. I'd be chucked out.

"As my brother slammed on his brakes to avoid hitting the turtle in the road, I grabbed the ocean bar."
"My mom was getting overly nervous at my driving, so she held on tightly to the ocean bar... just in case."

In essence, when one is acting like a granola bar, it means that they are acting in an unstable and unprecedented manner, that it evokes concern to all individuals nearby. Like Nature Valley Granola Bars, which tend to disintegrate easily. If an individual's mental health and overall lifestyle is showing signs of decline and instability, one could say that they are acting like a granola bar. In closure, to act like a granola bar means that you are fucking Wilding and acting crazy asf.
Person 1 background: recently lost their job, about to be evicted, has gotten numerous restraining orders in the last few days, hasn't taken care of their hygiene in a long ass time, and is doing black tar heroin on the double.
"Hey bro, you see that thicc ass Boulder near the highway?"
Person 2: "yeah what about it?"
Person 1: " yo we should like totally drive full speed towards it, it would be like so poggers lol"
Person 2:" imma be real with you, you have been acting like a granola bar recently, I think we should have an intervention"
