My first 10-minute mile since . . . ever.

I found these at an ordinary grocery store chain in New England (Market Basket), in the dairy/cheese section. I am loving all the ideas. Particularly anything cheese-and-crackery under 100. And I must be the last to know about Fiber One brownies, LOL! Thanks all, and keep them coming!
