need salty, low cal snack
Warning---I know some people view cheese as junk food.
I make cheese crisps. (shred hard cheeses and bake them on parchment paper until crisp). Use turkey peperoni verse regular for heating, coco puff (low carb bland little things that crunch and sold at wegman's, and I think Weis makes a version)...then I put yummy things on them. Soy nuts, sunflower seeds in the shell (crack them and eat so I don't just consume as many), jerky, chick peas,

in a pinch Ill have the soy crisps in a bag ( they have em at any drugstore - 3 grams of fat or so , lots of protein and all the salty goodness U can imagine )
they truly stop Ur hunger andare not a terrible choice when Ure famished and have to have a grab n go snack and want it to contain protein .
i did like beef jerky until I got sick from a bad batch and havent been able to eat it since .
i think mini pretzels in a party situation are an acceptable choice because they are fatfree so not ridiculously fattening ( like real chips ) but id never bring them home ( too caloric and madly salty) /
The mustard mini ones are super tasty though . ALWAYS read the bag - anything over 1 gram of fat a serving is TOO MUCH !!!
One lowfat indulgence ( only in a party only when there s nothing else ) Illl occasionally let myself have are lowfat triscuits ( a few ) ONLY after eating chitosan . They are very high fiber so i figure its ok just that ONCE after the fat absorber but not normally . But boy are they tasty !

another salty snack I love is fresh radishes from the garden with either "butter " ( fat free promise mixed with butter buds - real butter solids ) tastes just like butter - REALLY AND its fat free !!!
or hummus ( preferably again fat free hummus made with beans ..buy it at whole foods or make yer own )
high fiber ..super tasty YUM-Mo

My daughter had some snacks that are also protein called, Just the Cheese, she found them on Amazon, I think she got the idea from Eggface. Some are saltier than others. OUt of the 2 she had Jalepeno and Grilled Cheese, I like the Grilled Cheese best they weren't as salty in my opinion and I love salt. It sure is a good way to make you want to drink your water. But then again, we aren't supposed to eat and drink. :0)
