Healthy is as Healthy Eats: Snacks for Kids
Blogged under Food by Katherine Tanney on Wednesday 13 August 2008

What do partially hydrogenated oil, sugar and caffeine have in common? At least one appears in almost all popular kids’ snacks. And while we adults may love our afternoon M&Ms, Frito’s and Coke, we are allegedly wise enough to know that a little is enough. (Plus, we’re too far-gone already to be saved.)  The kids are another story, thanks to the wide availability of junk food wherever they go. At Sunbird Snacks, there are healthy alternatives you can send your kids to school with, such as raw almonds (12 three-ounce packs for $18). Yes, nuts are quite high in fat but it’s the kind that’s generally good for you. And instead of potato chips, check out these brown rice crackers in 2.5 ounce bags (12 for $18). They’re fat free (and that means no trans fat) and contain no artificial colors or flavors. They do contain sugar. Crispy Green®Crispy Fruit snacks are freeze-dried using fresh frozen fruit and a vacuum method that aims to retain the fruit’s essence. Choose from apples, apricots, peaches, pineapple and pears (pictured). Buy at the online store ($8 for six packs) or click on the store locator page to find the product in your town. And be sure to check out the Healthy Snack Store’s Single Serve Snacks. Here you’ll find individual portions of Kay’s gluten-free Kruncheeze (12 bags for $16), Protein Chips, cinnamon toast, jalapeno honey mustard or wasabi pretzels and protein cereals. All are $12 for 12 bags.
