Food - 5 Vending Machine Snacks to Avoid

Yahoo Health does a great job posting relevant food articles with nice slideshows. This article, 5 Vending Machine Snacks to Avoid (and 5 Healthier Options) comes at a great time for us - deciding what to buy to quelch those afternoon munchies! Snacks to avoid run around 280 calories (also check the number of servings on your favorite snack)
    Snacks to Avoid:
  • Lays Classic
  • Famous Amos Cookies (which are my favorite!)
  • Snickers (breaking into a Snickers Bar will cost you 280 calories)
  • Skittles
  • Entenmann's Jumbo Iced Honey Bun (I don't know about you but the ones in our work vending machine look like they've been rotting the past year!)
    Healthier Choices:
  • Triscuit Original
  • Chex Mix Traditional
  • Planters Peanuts
  • Planters Trailmix (just keep an eye on the number of servings!)
