If you must snack (eat between meals) choose to consume unprocessed plant foods.
What a concept! Most of our snack foods, (since the mid 80's) have come with high amounts of fat, salt and sugar added.
If you limit your snacks to fruits, vegetables and or nuts, you can save about 500 calories a day compared to consuming prepared snack foods.
You do remember the difference between a snack and a treat right?
Snack (a small amount of food to help you make it to the next meal when you need to add more nutrients to your body) on whole foods, good for you foods, with nutrition. To keep your blood sugar level, to help with energy and to control hunger.
Treats a consumable food or food like substance that we reward ourselves with occasionally.
