What aren't you allergic to? that sounds awful.</p> <p>We buy the 10lb bag of carrots from costco and I'll eat 5 in a sitting haha! </p> <p>I love the dried pineapple and mango from trader joes, then I sprinkle organic unsweetened coconut shavings on the top. It's like dessert for me.</p> <p>I also make my own granola, soo yummy, I love eating that. </p> <p>veggie straws (from costco!) </p> <p>Fig newmans - Figs are seriously my new favorite food. I freakin love them.</p> <p>bite-size everything crackers from Trader joes, or their multigrain crackers</p> <p>make a green smoothie</p> <p>most fruit... like berries, grapes or I'll peel/slice pear, orange etc..</p> <p>I also make healthy versions of sweets, by replacing flour with almond or coconut flour and oil with butter it makes brownies and cookies healthy. so I make those and have them on hand too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-117028 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:06:33 +0000 PBandBaseball 117028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a big fan of raw almonds. I keep a big bag at my desk and snack on them every afternoon. I actually have to try to count them out so that I eat one serving size and not ten!</p> <p>I know I should eat more fruit, I just haven't found a convenient way to bring it to work. I think I might try the mix that @Mrs. Hopscotch suggested. Sounds great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116986 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:48:47 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 116986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love to snack on oyster crackers. I also love carrot sticks, celery, and cheese. Berries are another favorite. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116984 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:48:14 +0000 mrs. wagon 116984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: Most fruits :( I can eat bananas, citrus, grapes, berries, watermelon, and pineapple. Once summer hits I'll definitely be bringing lots of watermelon in!! </p> <p>Carrots are also a no-no :( but greek yogurt has been pretty good for me. I like the kids' chobani champions ;) I'm gonna have to bring some of those in too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116981 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:46:23 +0000 Alivoo01 116981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Oh man! You're allergic to fruits?! That sucks. What about carrots or greek yogurt with honey? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116974 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:43:29 +0000 Arden 116974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Popcorn works well, or cucumbers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116956 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:36:03 +0000 mrs. wagon 116956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>awwww CRAP I'm allergic to something. Ugh. (not serious, no need for alarm... just an itchy mouth!) I think it's the almonds... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116927 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:24:17 +0000 mrs. wagon 116927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok guys I raided the vending machine and got a trail mix (peanuts, almonds, raisins, sunflower seeds, yogurt chips) and a diet pepsi. I'm very proud of myself for being good. I definitely want to make my own trail mix ot bring to work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116902 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:17:05 +0000 bushelandapeck 116902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretzels, raw veggies, and candy. I prefer candy but I try not to eat it all day :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116886 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:12:00 +0000 lavender 116886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: chocolate covered pomegranate gummies? Sounds delish!</p> <p>I usually munch on popcorn or gummy bears. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116883 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:10:49 +0000 mrs. wagon 116883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Goldilocks1107: yes, I miss carrots (allergic to those too) :( </p> <p>@Mrs. Hopscotch: ooh that sounds good... I can eat the dried fruits (hurrah!) so maybe I will make up a mix of my own tonight!!</p> <p>I just finished my mini bag of popcorn and I'm still hungry. Would it be bad to go to the cafeteria and get a hamburger? Uh, yeah. Crap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116881 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:10:14 +0000 mrsjyw 116881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm currently eating the Kellog's Cracker Chips... oyster crackers and saltines were getting a lil montonous... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116876 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:08:16 +0000 Mrs. Hopscotch 116876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For a healthier option, I make up a bag of raw (or roasted) almonds, dried cherries and raisins (not sure with your fruit allergies if these work for you). It's a nice mix, healthy, filling and I can keep a bag of it at my desk to munch on during the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116869 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:06:03 +0000 mediagirl 116869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Goldilocks1107: yeah...pita chips do not help with that whole hydration issue either... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116861 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:02:45 +0000 Goldilocks1107 116861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Besides fruit, baby carrots help satisfy the food-mouth fix without adding lots of calories. Plus, they seem to help improve my hydration!<br /> I've also been a notorious pretzel stick muncher. Which does not help with hydration. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116858 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:01:34 +0000 mrs. wagon 116858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: We have mysteriously disappearing easter candy at our house too. Must be some sort of phenomenon.</p> <p>@eiko2010: I'm definitely thinking of picking up some dry roasted almonds!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116855 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:00:27 +0000 littlebug 116855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like almonds. Or rice cakes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116854 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 13:00:24 +0000 mediagirl 116854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like @artbee, pita chips and fruit. I'm buying berries a lot right now because they're easy to eat and pop in that hand to mouth craving type of situation. </p> <p>I also am having a HUGE PROBLEM with our Easter candy. It's disappearing and I have no clue how that is happening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116850 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 12:58:32 +0000 heffalump 116850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whatever I have in the house. Earlier it was pita chips, but now I think I want grapes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-snack-on-to-satiate-that-hand-to-mouth-impulse#post-116846 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 12:57:01 +0000 mrs. wagon 116846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not usually a big snacker but these days I find myself always needing something to munch on... almost purely for that hand-to-mouth impulse. Right now I'm eating popcorn and it's doing the trick, even though I didn't really want it while I was microwaving it..! I used to have a big bag of chocolate covered pomegranate gummies in my desk and I resisted the urge to buy another yesterday at costco... I'm gonna be good!!</p> <p>But I do need other ideas... and I'm allergic to most fresh fruit, including apples :(</p> <p>What do you munch on when you have the munchies??? </p>
