Hi, my name is Hannah and I am a binge snacker.
As fellow snackers know, we cannot be trusted with chips or sugary cereals because we have a permanent case of the munchies. Unfortunately, these kinds of snacks are not a collegiette’s best friend, and are mostly responsible for the ten pounds I gained freshman year. Not all tastey snacks are unhealthy. These fifteen snacks even helped me lose some of the weight I gained.
1. Frozen grapes
2. Edamame beans
3. Cucumber wrapped with turkey
4. Hard boiled egg whites
5. Organic lowfat string cheese
6. Kale chips: Cover fresh kale with salt or olive oil. Leave in the oven until crisp.
7. Water-based smoothies: Just put water and your favorite fruits in a blender.
8. Carrots and hummus
9. Paul Newman’s plain organic microwave popcorn
10. Pirate’s Booty: According to People magazine, Suri Cruise is always munching on this organic and gluten-free snack.
