Snacks may not technically be a food group, but they’re a pretty essential part of daily life. Some snacks are simple (like hard-boiled eggs or protein bars) and others require a bit more work (like muffins, granola, or ants on a log). Regardless of your snack of choice, there’s a lot to consider, especially if you opt for a ready-made option. Many snacks are loaded with unnecessary ingredients and don’t offer much nutrition, which is why it’s worth your time to identify the snacks that’ll help you and your family stick to health goals and diets—while delivering flavor, too. Keep reading for one of our favorite grain-free pretzel brands.
