Do you have a favorite store bought snack that doesn't contain any sugar substitute? I can't tolerate artificial sweeteners and I would like to have something on hand when I'm craving something sweet.

At target they have these Fruit and Veggie Shreds (Plum or Revolution foods maybe). They have absolutely no added sugar and taste really good.

@NovBaby1112: same!
I just make sure in the ingredients it's just fruits! Some of the prepackaged dried fruits have added sugar. I like to get it from the bulk aisle.

Trader Joe's cookie butter on granny smith apples. Not exactly healthy, but in moderation, it sure hits the spot.
I also like making a big bowl of fruit salad (cut up bananas, strawberries, tangerines, peaches), and drizzling it in honey. It keeps in the fridge, covered, for several days.
All natural fruit leathers, or granola bars are good too.

@Aprk: those are good! I had the key lime pie.
If we're going for healthy-ish sweet snacks, I like yogurt, too. I'll macerate strawberries and rhubarb and mix it in greek yogurt. I also just ate dried apricots with dark chocolate chips.

Apples and natural peanut butter or cantaloupe!
I could eat cantaloupe all day.
The baked bananas and honey someone suggested sounds AMAZING.

The blue diamond chocolate roasted almonds are really good. Their sugar comes from stevia extract.
I also love dried apricots. For crunch, I like Sensible Foods freeze dried fruit.

Dried fruit. I've been into figs and apples lately. On the naughtier side, all sorts of vegan, organic, heath food, etc. brands make yummy 100% natural cookies/sweets.

@scg00387: just sweet and yummy snacks in general. I feel so guilty now since all these ladies are snacking so healthy! I get boxes of aunt Annie's fruit snacks for my LO so I know they taste yummy. I love that it doesn't have any kind of corn syrup in it.

Dates! I just got into them this year and I'm obsessed. They are so yummy and sweet. I eat a ton of fruit and they most definitely come the closest to a candy like treat

I freeze chunks of bananas! They are my replacement for ice cream and taste kind of like candy when frozen.

I eat a spoonful or two when I want something sweet.
Almond butter is good too if you wanna be healthy

Frozen blueberries, frozen cherries and frozen grapes are good too!
