I’ve Got the Munchies…Do You?
September 7, 2008 by Caryn
I have a complete and utter weakness for snacks. I could snack all day and I’d be happy. Hey…don’t they say you should “graze” all day rather than eating 3 large meals? I make an effort to eat healthy snacks like Brothers-All-Natural fruit and potato crisps (I prefer the potato!), fruit (oranges and bananas are my fav!), Kashi bars, and Bear Naked All Natural Granola. But sometimes…a mama needs chocolate! Ice cream and cookies (actually, just the dough) are the only things that can satisfy my chocolate cravings.
Now that our little boy is eating the same food we eat, I’ve had to find some healthy snacks for him to eat. You’ll always find Cheerios, Earth’s Best Sesame Street Organic Crunchin’ Crackers, or GERBER GRADUATES Veggie puffs in my diaper bag for those toddler meltdown moments at Target.
What are you and your kids snacking on? I’d love to get some ideas for our family! And don’t forget to check out what other moms and dads are snackin’ on over at The Parent Bloggers Network!

Lately I have been snacking on grapes a lot. In the past week, I have hit up some health food stores and got Larabar’s, Clif bars, almond butter and even that Bear Naked granola you mentioned. Fun stuff!
For my munchkin I carry Cheerio’s and Rice Puffs. For me I carry almonds, cashews dried cranberries and dried mangos. It’s a bit pricey but I’m also into Lesser Evil for my naughty but nice cravings!
