Summer Fresh Snack'N Go!

Are you a healthy snacker? Nutritional surveys indicate that many people get as much as 25% of their calories from foods that provide little or no nutritional value – foods like soft drinks and other sweetened beverages, candy, cookies and ice cream. Snacks should help fill in the nutritional gaps of your day. They should give you energy, staying power and good nutrition. Today’s recommended product is Snack’n Go! Hummus and Flatbread by Summer Fresh. This product is great for life on the run. You can eat it anywhere and anytime. Each snack pack contains 180 calories, 10 grams of fat (1.5 grams of saturated fat) and 3 grams of fibre. The hummus is made with chick peas, tahini (sesame seed paste) and canola oil. Although it is higher in sodium than I would like to see in a snack (370 mg), I still consider it a good choice, especially compared to what most people are snacking on these days! Try the “original hummus” and the “roasted red pepper hummus”. Both are good. Have a happy, healthy, snacking day!
