Adults and children alike will enjoy Whisps cheese crisps. They are available in a variety of parmesan and cheddar flavor packages at Costco. This 100 calorie snack is made with pure cheese and is a good source of calcium and protein. Besides snacking, you can get creative and use Whisps cheese crisps to add to your salads or soups. It’s individually wrapped so it’s easy to throw one in a lunch box or throw it in your purse or backpack.
For crackers that taste better than standard saltine, try Crunchmaster Multi-Grain crackers. It is made up of sesame, flax, quinoa, amaranth, millet and chia, and has 140 calories per serving. They are gluten-free and light and crunchy, making them a great snack to pair with your favorite fruits and cheeses or on their own. It doesn’t come in individual packages so you need to put it in a snack-sized bag if you plan to take some to-go.
Protein is an important macronutrient that you should not neglect because it forms the building blocks of your muscles. An easy way to add more protein to your diet is with this Protein Snack Box. The variety pack contains Jack Link’s and Lorissa’s Kitchen beef jerky in different flavors and individually wrapped sizes. You can choose from Jack Links classic beef jerky or experiment with Lorissa’s Korean barbeque beef strips or jalapeno beef sticks.
Whether you like fruit peel or dried fruit, you’ll love That’s It Mini Fruit Bars. These dried fruit bars come in three different flavors: mango, blueberry and strawberry. The brand prides itself on the fact that it only makes products with real fruit and no added sugar. At 60 calories a bar, they’re a great snack to get your daily intake of fruit and they also have 2 to 3 grams of fiber per serving. They are gluten-free, vegan and allergen-free, making them a safe snack for kids to bring to school.
Satisfy your chocolate cravings by grabbing a bag of this healthful treat. You get four squares of individually wrapped chocolate, which are the perfect size to throw in your backpack, lunchbox or purse. At 180 calories a pack, it’s also low in sugar and a good choice if you’re a fan of salty and sweet and don’t mind coconut. I’ve tried a few of the other ChocXO flavors and one of my other favorites is the Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups — which are a great selection to carry at Costco.
