Low Cal Snacks for Travel

[Indieflickers 298]

I'm flying cross country on Thursday so I'm going to be spending most of the day either at the airport or on the plane. Does anyone have any suggestions of low calorie (around 100 calories) non-perishable Snacks that I can bring? I hate buying food at the airport because I'm a control freak who likes to weigh and measure as much of my food as possible.

Generally when I travel I use Protein bars for Protein. Perhaps fruit such as apples, bananas or oranges might work.

@@James Marusek I always bring two Quest bars. fruit is a good idea.

ANYTHING you buy at the airport is going to be sooo expensive

i agree - Protein bars are my go-to, easy snack

while you are in the airport waiting

you could buy a greek yogurt from a vending machine

stores also have good/healthy salads you could take on board

it will stay fine/cool on the plane for a couple of hours

babybel cheese from home is yummy too

no need to worry measuring the above

have a wonderful trip

holy moly

i just realized you have lost 163 lbs!!

that's wonderful!!!!

you are aces!!!

keep up the great job

for the rest of your healthier, happier, longer life

happy flying, have a great time

(unless it's business)

gotta just deal with that!!

I prefer Power Crunch bars. They have about 200 calories but you could do some walking in the airport or walk the escalator a few times to burn off some calories if you feel the need.

@@proudgrammy thanks for the suggestions! I was thinking about bringing some cheese.

@@twinhappy I've never tried those. I'm a huge fan of Quest bars so I haven't branched out much.

They sell them at Wal-mart and the Vitamin Shoppe so they are easy to find. I even found them at the gas station once! (referring to the Power Crunch bars)

@@Indieflickers -I hate to say this but it's usually a impulse purchase at Whole Foods, and I got great deal on Jack's Jerky on Brad's deals.

@@Lutasha I'm such a wimp when it comes to spice. Foods that most people find mildly spicy are intensely hot to me. I have a super WASPy mouth.
