    Why are you on the hunt for low-cal snacks? Are you hungry at certain times of the day? At what times are you hungry? And hard to recommend "low cal snacks" when I can't see what you're eating before and after your need for that snack.

    I know, you wanted a simple answer and I replied seeking information on the source of your hunger. I'm sure someone will come along and suggest a new flavor of sugar-free jell-o but that's just a band-aid.

    Depends on what you consider "low cal". To me, that's a snack of less than 300 cals.

    Pick n choose...

    hard boiled egg (70 cal)
    low fat string cheese (50 cal)
    fruit- but break out of the apple-banana-orange rut. Try mixed berries, grapefruit, etc.
    almonds (170 cal)
    protein bar/ protein shake (depends)
    Fage with berries (105 cals)
    low carb/ no carb raisin toast with fat free cream cheese (I mix cinnamon into the cream cheese)( 94 cals)
    Rice cake w/ one tbls peanut butter (140)
    Sandwich thin, toasted, schmeared with one Laughing Cow Garlic n Herb Cheese wedge (135 cal)
    Beef Jerky (80 cal)

    Nuts are good fillers and snack well cookies, plus greek yogurts and my personal favorite is popcorn that comes in those 100 calorie servings. I understand needing snacks.

    Beef jerky! Keeps you full longer- protein shake- veggie chips- I know you said not veggies- but if you make chips out of certain veggies- or even if you thinly slice your own potato and make your own chips- and then there are walden farms zero calorie things-- theres an ice cream called Absolute zero- an entire pint is 150 calories- or frozen mashed bananas is delicious.

    Im assuming you mean things that taste unhealthy but you can eat without changing your habits?

    Then there are lays chips- that are low cal- not the regular lays- popcorn is relatively low calorie- but has no vitamens nutrients or protein to keep you full.
