Grown-up snack wars. It’s a thing. It’s the battle that ensues in the middle of the afternoon when you’re hankering for something bad-but oh-so-good and instead convince yourself to be all healthy. Face it: reality bites. Or, rather reality snack bites.

Today I didn’t eat lunch for some reason — distracted, much? — so I’m feeling rather peckish. So now I find myself resisting the urge to throw myself into the bag of peanut M&Ms. But I won’t. Because adulting is full of these tough decisions. Trust me, I know the drill.

Don’t Let Reality Snack Bites Bite You in the Arse

Instead, I make sure that I have a bunch of bite-sized, nutritious nibbles in plain view, on the counter, at all times. This way when reality snack bites attack, I bite back with the healthy options. Among my faves are:

Solar Raw Foods Ultimate Kale Chips

Manitoba Harvest Hemp Heart Bites

Nature’s Path Love Crunch Granola

Got a favourite kick-your-cravings-to-the-curb snack? I’d love to hear about it in the comments.
