100 Calorie Snack Packs


Quote  |  Reply
I just bought a box of these at Costco (before reading CC rates them a C-).  Do any of you eat them?  Do you like them?

I tried the Chips Ahoy and felt the chocolate and crunch satisfied my craving.  Bonus was prepackged so I didn't go over my calorie limit.  I tend to have a problem with portion control/moderation when it comes to snacking. 

For the most part my snacks are fruits or veggies but I was getting burnt out so I bought prepackaged beef jerky, pudding cups, jello and these 100 calorie packs (no snack is over 100 calories) to add variety.

I just got the Wheat Thin 100 calorie snack packs (they have multi-grains or something) and I LOVE them!!!  High on the salt, but I love that I can eat THE WHOLE PACKAGE!!! :)
I love the 100 calorie snack packs. The oreos are really good, though they look nothing like oreos. I also like the different flavors or doritos they have AND now they have the Cheetos cheese balls. They're really easy to just throw in my purse to have on hand.

My roommate thinks they're too expensive (I get mine at Walmart, they're pretty cheap there) so she will buy a big bag of whatever it is she wants. She'll weigh out a 100 calorie serving and put it in a ziplock baggie.
we like them, too, for a treat.  they're great to add to my husband's lunch, and sometimes, something cheesy and crunchy is just what i want, and these allow me to satisfy that want of less healthy food, but still stay on track calorie-wise. 
I used to do what your roommate does, it is slightly less expensive, but I found the food went stale faster.  I try to only have a non-fruit / veggie snack four days a week.

Salty foods are a weakness - much more then sweet.  Cheetos are my favorite chip!  I didn't see them in the 100 calorie pack, which could be a good thing!  My box has Cheese Nips, Oreos & Chips Ahoy. 
I LOVE THEM!!! I have the chips deluxe 100 cal, popcorn 100 cal, AND I just bought pudding cups 100 cal, BUT I just realized, the regular ones are 90 cals, whats up with that? *shrugs* whatever, I just finished eating one!
I like them. Even more than the Chips Ahoy ones, I like the Keebler Chips Deluxe snack packs; a double yum for them!
I eat them.  I've tried the Doritos, Pringles, Keebler's Sandies, Planters Peanut Butter cookies and fruit snacks.

I eat the doritos and cheetos ones... and they are perfect for lunch at the office... I like crunchy salty with my tuna sandwishes, (habit from growing up) its way better then bringing potato chips and it they even satisfy my monthly T.O.M. salt craving.  Last time I stocked up on them, they were only 1.99 for a box of six... so I dont think they are that expensive.

Is jump roping as good an exercise as running?

In terms of calorie burning, moderate jumping is about equal to running a 10-minute mile, although calorie burning is always a function of time... Read more
