At work, in between meals I sometime get hungry so I've been on the look out for some little snacks to help me get through the day. My favorite is pistachios. They're rich and salty and not too bad for you. Popping the shells off the resistant ones can be a challenge which makes them that much more fun to eat. I bought a two pound bag and took it work and it has kept me (and a coworker or two) well supplied for the last two weeks. At last, it has reached it's end and I'm trying to decide if I should buy another bag or try something different so I don't get tired of my favorite little nut. Any suggestions for good snack food?

I was wondering where the pistachios went to.
I suggest dried Montmorency (sour pie) cherries from Trader Joe's. SO GOOD! and high in Vitamin A.
Mine require refrigeration: around 11 I usually eat apple slices w/ peanut butter (to get my protein) and after lunch, around 3, I eat a yogurt. I also eat string cheese. And sometimes beef jerky but I guess you wouldn't eat that.
kashi crackers are a new fav, baby carrots and hummus but that might be higher maintenance than you're looking for, cashews, dried mango.
When i was pregnant I like LIVED off of apples with peanut butter and cheese and crackers. there's this semisoft "laughing cow" cheese that's actually pretty low in fat and still yummy(recommended by weight watchers) that we like to spread on kashi crackers these days! sorry such a long comment- i'm passionate about my snacks, apparently!
I live and die by triscuits with cheese slices, string cheese, and frozen grapes. Some day when I am rich I will eat almonds all day long. Oh, and frozen GoGurt is really good. Those tubes for little kids. Amazing - but let them sit out for a few minutes so they can soften. Same with the grapes.
I enjoy granola bards. I've been eating pretzels since they aren't as bad as chips.
Dad likes trail mix. I like popcorn or sunflower nuts. You can usually find sunflower nuts(sunflower seeds without the shells) at the store. I would recommend roasted and salted. It makes a big difference.
