Are you trying to keep your snacks under a certain calorie value?

I'm generally not a big snacker, but when I do... I like to eat those 100 calorie snacks. (especially their popcorn) They probably don't taste as good as some of the high calorie stuff... but I find that they at least fill me up, without adding too many calories.

They also have some frozen (I can't remember the name of them... something like SKINNY COW???) ice cream bars. They're really good. :licklips:

Oh yeah... how about fruit? I love snacking on (frozen) grapes. :licklips: they're really good, and good for you. ;)

handful of peanuts and craisins
