According to Mayo Clinic - What does a 100 calorie snack look like?
Although snacks can contribute to a healthy diet, they can also be a source of excess calories if you aren't careful. For example, a small handful of almonds (about 14 nuts) contains 100 calories. But eat a cup of almonds, and the calorie count jumps to over 800 calories.
So what are some smart choices? Here are several suggestions for 100-calorie snacks:
1 cup sliced bananas and fresh raspberries
2 cups of carrots
3 1/2 cups air-popped popcorn
5 melba toast crackers, rye or pumpernickle
3 tablespoons of nuts
2 domino-sized slices of low-fat Colby or cheddar cheese
1 fat-free chocolate pudding cup.
