    This is absolutely irrelevant, because I'll eat about anything.. But are you from Hanford??

    My husband and I lived in Hanford, California for a few years. He was pastoring in a local church. Many members of his family still leave in and around Hanford.

    We will be attending a big camp meeting in Hanford in July and staying at my sister-in-law's home in Selma, while we are there.

    My favorite snack is more of a drink- I'm a green smoothie girl! You can tailor the calories by putting different fruits and additions like protein powder, peanut butter, yogurt, etc. but the base of spinach, a banana, and water is only about 110cal. I'm not the kind of person who needs something to crunch on, though (I have jaw issues that prevent me from eating a lot of crunchy foods anyway) so my snacks are usually green smoothies or Luna bars. When I do want some crunch I have a few almonds or cashews.

    How nice! That's where I'm from so it obviously stuck out to me!

    I've recently gotten hooked on radishes again as well, I hadn't had them for a while. They're healthy and have a nice crunch to them. I also love munching on red bell peppers or cucumbers cut into spears. For a non veggie I like raw almonds and also keep some 100 calorie snacks in my desk drawer at work at all times.

    Cucumbers, with hot sauce an lemon. I call it a Mexican cucumber, and just something I've had since being a kid. I'm getting sick of hard boiled eggs, but that is usually on my list of snacks.


    I will def have to try your cucumber snack..

    Well, here lately, I have been munching on 100 calorie Kudos bars, but I also like the laughing cow cheese, roasted vegetable ritz crackers (with or without the cheese), and popcorn with some curry powder and ground cinnamon sprinkled in (surprisingly good). Another good option that I used to eat a lot is "ants on a log", which is just celery with some peanut butter spread on it (in the crease) and raisins on top. A lot of people don't like the sound of it, but it's REALLY tasty :)

    I love my new favorite dessert. I have a plain greek yogurt with a table spoon of pure maple syrup. So delicious and you are getting lots of health benefits. After reading about maple syrup I think I should be adding it to my coffee. It's 150 calories.

    Stretch Island fruit leather (between 40 and 70 calories per serving) is fantastic. Fresh blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc. Granola bars (Quaker, Kudos, Nature Valley). Pretzels, either regular or flavored. Beef jerky and turkey jerky. Pistachios, peanuts. Goldfish and Cheez-Its are awesome. Fruit snacks.
