I saw Pringles 100 pack but i doubt thats healthy.. I hear that there are rice cakes for 90 calories but

Which ones are healthy to have? or what should i look out for?

  • Watch the sodium! If they have over 250 mg of sodium in them, I wouldn't buy them. If the sodium is low, then I would say they would be ok as long as you eat the serving size :)

    The low sodium rice cakes with a tablespoon of peanut butter!! Yummy! I used to eat that all the time!
  • I don't think the point of 100 calorie snacks are to be "healthy" but more to help with portion control. :) I can easily go through a whole bag of chips in a setting so when I have the 100 calorie packs it makes me think about eating a second bag instead of just reaching into the big bag again.

    Also, I find them way overpriced. If you have the self control get a big bag of whatever you want and then divide them up into baggies in single serving sizes. Much lower cost per unit. :)

    And you are right the pringles are not the healthiest choice but if you are craving it you're craving it.... as long as your only eating one pack :)

    Go for the rice cakes... they are much healthier. Less sodium, less carbs and personally I think they taste better.
