Your snacks: chance or choice? By MRS. ANN HANCOOK Area Extension Agent With the advent of television, we became a nation of “snackers”. As we visit or watch television we are apt to nibble on popcorn, potato chips or any one of the various snack foods. Snacks should have a place in the daily intake of the basic four, food groups. Our snacks should be. more of a choice than a chance. The right kind of snacks can help your health and well being. The weight watcher needs to chcose his snacks even more carefully. Rather than having sveets or carbohydrates for snacks, we should supplement our daily intake of meat, milk, fruits or vegetables. Since most of us do , not get enough fruits and vegetables each day these would be good snacks. Fresh fruits such as an apple, orange, or banana provide needed nutrients and also are easy to snack on. Fresh vegetables can be cleaned and kept in the refrigerator for a quick snack. If you do not like to drink milk, ice cream or cheese would serve as a worthwhile snack. If your children drink kool-aid, add a vitamin C product to it. This will not change the flavor but win increase the nutrients. “Fruit Fresh” is one synthetic vitamin C product that is sold in most supermarkets. Carbonated beverages, candy, cakes and pastries all belong to the carbohydrate group. They provide energy but do not supply any vitamins, minerals, or protein. And they are expensive. Whether you are an occasional snacker or a frequent nibbier,
