Default What are your favorite & fun low-calorie foods?

My choices would be:

Melons (any kind, love 'em all), apples (just slice 'em, great for
snacking), sliced tomatoes, pineapples, bananas.

Can't recommend these as a nutritional food, but once in a while, I
really like a few Rye Crisp crackers (not saltines, the brown one's),
dipped in applesauce. Those crackers are so crunchy.

Whatever your favorites, it's a real savvy idea to keep some of these
items around. Not to encourage in-between meal snacking, but just for
the odd time when the rest of the family is eating some "caloric hand
grenades", (high calorie snacks), and you want to have a satisfying
and OK snack, as well.

What foods do you favor, for snacking, and staying on the diet?

One of my favorite - I still think have to think about THE favorite-
is putting ice and pineapple in a blender. It's pretty cool.

I agree with that.

Mine a
Slices of Quorn meat substitute (12 calories each)
A sun-dried tomato (not in oil, same calories as a fresh tomato)
Rice crackers, either the white ones with Marmite or the brown Japanese ones
with sesame (30 calories each)
Miso soup (40 calories a cup) - good for when I need warming up
A handful of raspberries/strawberries/blueberries

Sometimes it's just tempting to give up on weight control and go for
the Cheetos or bratzel bag!!!

I re-discoverd the sweet gherkin pickles!!! A snack consisting of 6
pickles satisfy me for a good time. Only 130 calories. They originally
did not attract me much, but I gave them a try. I don't regret it a
moment!
