Candy that is good for you

Can you have a treat that is also nutritious? Absolutely. There is no reason why you need to chose a food that lacks nutrients to get a great treat.

Fun to eat and good for you

"Eat. Spit. Be Happy." says DAVID, a manufacturer of sunflower seeds. I can't agree more. If not for the fact that I've been trying to teach my children not to spit, these would be a perfect snack.

A chewy solution to snacking

If you choose sugar free gum, or close to it, you have a snack that won't wreck your teeth or your waistline. You can stop the desire to put something fattening in your mouth and it can be a pretty good experience. As long as you are not hungry, chewing gum is a good alternative to food....

Better than cookies but not as good as fruit

Graham crackers can be pretty yummy. There are a lot of different brands but they all average out to be about the same for calories...

Chewy Granola Bar

Wait a minute, these are supposed to be healthy! Do you really consider these a treat?

A few slices of salami go a long way

Why do I recommend salami? Well first of all, the taste is very strong. If you have a few thin slices for a snack, you probably won't be able to eat much more.

A zero calorie alternative to soda

I have to admit my love of sparkling water. I just love those little bubbles....

Chocolate is made from plants

Why is dark chocolate good for you? Most people don't realize that dark chocolate is derived from plants....

Triscuit

If you like crackers, Triscuits (or whole wheat baked snack crackers) are for you. They are salty and crunchy and great alternative to the higher fat alternatives such as potato chips or Doritos....

Colorful jewels of chocolate and sugar

Just look at those M&M's. So beautiful, sparkling in the light. The amazing colors and the smell of them make my mouth water. They are so cute aren't they?...
