We love our snacks:A look at what snacks are good for you and what snacks are badOne of the greatest indulgences that we have is snacking, we get that little bit of craving between meals and search for something usually sweet or salty.Americas favorite snacks include candy,cookies,pretzels,popcorn and chips.I wanted to take a look at which of our favorite snacks are good for you and which are bad,you may be surprised to see what I dug up.
Making the best snacks list is popcorn.Microwave popcorn is generally 98% fat free,which in itself is a plus,so you don't have to feel bad when you drizzle a little bit of butter of the top,just don't get carried away.
Fruit smoothies,this tasty treat can back itself as being a complete snack that can sustain urges and temptations,use low fat yogurt and fresh fruit such as bananas to make it more justifiable.
Cereal,this is a favorite snack of the young and young at heart and it's not just for breakfast anymore,feel confident with a whole grain low sugar choice.
Peanut butter,although this yummy tongue tantalizing spread is loaded with calories it can really satisfy in even small amounts.
Chocolate,yes,I said chocolate.A huge margin of people love their candy bars as a snack but instead of a Snickers or Almond Joy grab a Hershey's chocolate bar and only eat about half as treat to yourself,it'll help to curb those chocolate lover cravings.
Ice cream,many people love to indulge in this frozen dairy delight and you still can without feeling guilty.Choose a low fat brand of ice cream and skip the toppings and cone.
Coming at at number one as always is,fresh vegetables.This is one snack that you can get carried away with by themselves bar none the best for you but if you must dip choose a lower fat version of ranch dip.
Now,the worst list ,cookies these should only be eaten on minimal occasions because they are loaded with sugars.
Cakes,birthdays are fine but don't over do it because one slice of cake could result in over 400 calories.
