After being at college for a month, I have learned to navigate campus, organize my schedule, and of course, I have learned which snacks I should keep close at hand. Here is a list of the snacks that my roommates and I have learned to love the most!

 

1. Mini Oreos

These mini Oreos have a high snackability! They are small, sweet, and perfect for sharing with friends.

2. That’s It Bars

As much as I love junk food, being health conscious is just as important. That’s It Bars are vegan, non-GMO fruit bars with the ingredients only being the fruits listed on the package – No other ingredients and no sugar added. Perfect for a healthy snack on the way to class!

3. Freeze Dried Strawberries

For similar reasons of the That’s It Bar, freeze dried strawberries are also a healthy choice to keep in your dorm room. While fresh fruit only lasts for a week, freeze dried fruit has a much longer shelf life and is perfect to fulfill your sweet tooth with a healthy alternative. 

4. Popcorn

If you have a microwave in your dorm room, it’s worth while to also invest in some microwaveable popcorn. Whether you’re hosting a movie night or need a small bite to eat yourself, popcorn is always a good snack to have available. 

6. Oatmeal

Oatmeal has become a staple in my snacking collection. It’s easy to make, fills you up, and is perfect snack to make yourself in the morning. 

Happy snacking to you all!
