Thursday Thirteen #2 – Sweet Snacks
Thought I’d would join in the Thursday Thirteen fun this week.
In last Thurday’s Thirteen – I covered salty snack solutions for when you’re on a diet. In the discussion from last week’s post, Jo left a comment asking about thirteen SWEET snacks. Don’t we all have sweet cravings?? I sure do – it’s one of my biggest downfalls (even bigger than salty!)
So, here we go – 13 sweet 100 calorie snack solutions:
- Cracker Jack – 1/3 cup
- M&Ms – plain, 30
- M&Ms, with peanuts – 10
- Caramel-peanut chocolate bar, trick-or-treat size – 1
- Chocolate and wafer bar, trick-or-treat size – 2
- Flaky peanut butter chocolate bart, trick-or-treat size – 2
- Mini Rice Cakes, caramel – 10
- Jelly beans – 25
- Licorice – 3 twists
- Chocolate covered raisins – 20
- Malted Milk Balls – 7
- Yogurt Covered raisins – 2 tablespoons
- Hard Candy – 4 pieces
Don’t forget good ol’ fruit – grapes, apples, oranges, banannas, melon and pineapple to name a few. Usually a 1/2 cup of one of those will give you a good 100 cal. solution. Why isn’t fruit unlimited? It’s good – and good for you – but the natural sugar content of fruit gives it more calories than most vegetables.
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

I’ll pass. I love salty snacks, so I’ll check that one.
I will have to keep that list in mind. I am a snacker and am always looking for snacks that will fit into my diet
Great list! I can’t eat most of those because of my digestive problems though.
Another thing to add to your list. Diabetic food items. Diabetic hard candies are actually surprisingly good and have the bonus of having very few calories.
Great List, my T13 for this week are up. :d
Ssshhh, fruit doesn’t have sugar. *as she munches away on an apple*
I have a weakness for those Reeses Pieces BB things. *drool*
My list is up.
Great idea for a TT list! 20 chocolate covered raisins sound good right about now.
