6. 6 whole-grain pretzel sticks = 96 calories
7. Baked apple with a sprinkle of cinnamon = 95 calories
8. 1/3 cup edamame = 92 calories
9. 8 baby carrots and 2 table-spoons hummus = 90 calories
10. 1/2 cup non-fat plain yogurt and a teaspoon of sunflower seeds = 88 calories

If you're counting calories, I'd rather spend 100 calories on something nutritious and filling, rather than a 100-calorie snack pack of empty calories/carbs that's going to do nothing for me except make me crave three more snack packs in an hour LOL

A 100-calorie snack for me is usually a piece of fruit, a cup of cottage cheese, some beef jerky (protein!), half an avocado (healthy fat!), or a handful of nuts.

These all sound so yummy! I'm going to definitely need this list handy in the future.

I discovered stirring a teaspoon of sweet chilli sauce into half a pot of cottage cheese. Delicious and less than 100 cals :-)

The snacks the OP posted are not snack packs but healthy snacks.
