The INSIDER Summary:

  • We talked to nutritionist Kim Larson to identify a few snack foods that are good for you, and some that are not so good.
  • Trail mix can be healthy if it's homemade and doesn't contain candy; frozen fruit bars can also be healthy if they're made with whole fruit.
  • Fruit-flavored yogurt isn't the worst choice, but the fruit adds a lot of artificial sugar.
  • Frozen snack foods, pastries and bakery items, granola and granola bars, and potato chips are all unhealthy and should generally be avoided.
