Three has been the “magic number” for Schoolhouse Rock fans for the longest time, but apparently there is a new number in town. For those looking to stay healthy but still incorporate snacks throughout their day, 100 has become the new favorite.
Plenty of mainstream food brands offer their 100 calorie “snack packs” but you can just grab some fresh fruits or veggies in the right portions and create magic of your own.
I compiled some of the 100 calories snack suggestions from around the web for you to peruse and decide which will work best with your day:
- Nutritious Feast – Snacks around 100 calories or less
- Women’s Health Magazine 100 Calorie Healthy Snacks
- DIY Life – Make your own 100 calorie snack packs
What is your favorite 100 calorie snack?
Why is 100 the magic number? Perhaps because it’s simple, nice and well-rounded? I do like it though, because if I’m extra hungry and I eat two packs and not feel too guilty! I do need to create some of my own snack packs. I haven’t bought any for a while–just grab a handful of almonds and call it good!
