    my go-to is baby carrots as of late... they have the crunch, and the sweet... and, with a dash of calorie wise italian salad dressing as a dip.. a savoury flavour :)
    or you could hook yourself up with the 100cal packs of oreos and fudgee-o's from thinsations... they're my backups :D

    Special K Cracker Chips are wonderful and you can eat like 30 chips for about 100 calories!!!

    Pop Chips are AMAZING!!! And Quaker Rice Chips are awesome too!!! There are also rice crackers in tons of flavors that make a good chip alternative!! Pretzels are pretty decent!! I am a chip addict too.....working on it, but replacing them with these lower calorie options has saved me tons of calories I'm sure!!!!

    Okay tried the 100 cal popcorn and find it to be so dry that the flavor sprinkles you can buy do not even stick to the popcorn it just falls to the bottom of the bowl. UGH!

    100 calorie packs?

    I love rice cakes and peanut butter, but you have to be careful off all the calories in PB. I also budget about 300 calories for some ice cream a couple times a week. :D

    Try the caramel rice cakes when you need a sweet - they are great! ;)
    For ice cream - try the skinny cow cookies and cream sandwiches - 140 calories brings me to heaven!!!

    I'm a big fan of SO Delicious Vanilla Minis ice cream sandwiches made with coconut milk and agave; only 100 calories and they are very yummy and satisfying - without all the spikes of eating sweet things. I buy them at my regular grocery store in the organic section.

    greek yogurt with fresh fruit
    oatmeal with peanut butter
    fruit in general
    100 calorie snacks such as pretzels, chips, cookies - though i try to limit having these as much as i can.
    sugar free jello is also a good choice
