have a snack question

Question to Ms Hershey,

I've seen the turkey jerky in what look like good take along pouches for when I'm on the run.  But it just looks tough.  Are they hard or easy to chew?  What brand do you like?  Do they taste fatty like a slim jim?

No they don't taste fatty/greasy at all.  The jerky strips take a little more effort to chew, I usually get the nuggets. I like the Jack Links or Oberto brand and I usually get it from Wal-Mart since it's cheaper than in the gas stations (that's where I found them first).

 

Thanks girl.  I think I'll try the terriaky nuggets.  I've been watching them for awhile but have always been afraid they would be too greasy or taste like shoe leather. 

WIll def try them too Hershey!

 I love chocolate. I would probably eat a chocolate covered ant if someone dared me to eat it. So, in the wake of full sugar chocolate, I've discovered a low sugar protein bar by Detour. It's like a snickers bar, but with 30 grams of protein. The bar is pretty big, so I can only eat about half of it. Sometimes, I'll make a chocolate protein shake and indulge a little in the chocolate sugar free Da Vinci syrup to make it extra chocolatey. When I want crunch, I'll have a few pretzels. I never buy a huge bag, but I will buy a lunch size bag at work and eat what I want and ziplock the rest for later.  I still have trouble with some foods, but I do try new recipes every so often. 

Oh, and fruit and greek yogurt is my friend. I just discovered that I tolerate grapefruit well, and I can eat a whole grapefruit, a small one, but I can eat the whole thing. 

Thanks Ziggy! I think I need to make a shake for those snacks only because i'm not able to maintain my weight at this point and am continously losing slow but still losing.

I snack on Trader Joe's Turkey Jerky.  It's "lower" in sodium and taste good.  I only need a little to get me by until the next meal.

Thanks for the suggestion! I have to drive 4 hrs today for work so maybe I'll pick some jerky up for my cravings on the way down.
