Need a work snack under fifty calories!

I find that I often go over on my first break at work (I work night shift, so it's at 12am). I always want to eat something to keep my energy level up, but today I'm close to my calorie goal. I work at a grocery store, so I can pick it up before I go in.

Anybody have a suggestion for something semi-filling for fifty calories or under? I'm not picky. And no, I don't like celery, ha ha.

    I like single serving cups of cinnamon applesauce, it often satisfies my sweet tooth, but it is 80 calories.
    Mozzarella cheese sticks are good low cal. A peach only has 38 calories.

    Just found this great article on Woman's Day - "50 Best Snacks Under 50 Calories"

    http://www.womansday.com/health-fitness/diet-weight-loss/50-Best-Snacks-Under-50-Calories

    I didn't even think of half of them. I also work nights and my fallback is always carrot sticks with a little dip or a cheese stick....

    Now that it is summer, I'm loving watermelon! One cup is only 45 calories. I usually have this as a snack twice day. So sweet and juicy!
