    Smart Sweets Variety Pack (8-Pack, 1.8 Oz. Each)

    Anyone whose hand itches to throw gummy candies into their shopping cart every time they’re at the supermarket should give SmartSweets a try. This variety pack contains eight snack-size bags, in four different flavors. You’ll find classic Swedish fish, peach rings, sour watermelon slices, and sour little kids—all of which have 92% less sugar than your average candy (and no artificial sweeteners). Each gummy contains just four ingredients: corn fiber, allulose, coconut oil, and monk fruit extract. Yummy, easy, and satisfyingly chewy.

    Our review: I have a problem with sweets in the night; I just need to snack on something sweet before going to bed. However, seeing as I’m an adult who likes to believe that I’m healthy—and I really can’t have too much sugar due to prediabetes—I felt I had to be responsible with my sweet of choice. After some Google queries for healthy candy that actually tastes good, I discovered Smart Sweets and haven’t looked back since. Each bag has just 3 grams of sugar and 6 grams of fiber, but they taste great, are fun to chew (IYKYK), and are super satisfying to eat and snack upon. I’ve actually started bringing them in my work bag to nibble on throughout the day. My personal favorites are the Sour Blast Buddies or Sour Melon Bites, while my husband loves the Sweet Fish. But we love all of the flavors; you really can’t go wrong. —Danielle Sinay, Glamour associate beauty editor

    Quest Nutrition Tortilla Style Protein Chips (12-Pack)

    You’ll find all sorts of classic chips on Amazon, but if you want to try something new, these Quest tortilla chips are a great Doritos dupe. They come in several similar flavors (nacho cheese, loaded taco, hot and spicy, chili lime, ranch, spicy sweet chili), but they’re gluten-free, baked, and packed with 18 to 20 grams of protein in each bag.

    Our review: I got these to help me reach my protein goals thinking they’d be a healthier alternative to Doritos—it turns out I actually like the taste more! They taste like nacho cheese Doritos with a bit of a lighter chip and more of the seasoning. While protein products (especially chips) can sometimes have a sawdust-like aftertaste and texture, whatever’s in the nacho cheese seasoning of these Quest chips completely masks it. —Emily Tannenbaum, Glamour contributor

    Life’s Grape Dark Chocolate Raisins (3-Pack)

    Each of these zippered bags houses vine-dried California grapes dipped in decadent dark chocolate and dusted with cocoa powder. Raisinets, who? These gluten-free treats are tasty all on their own, in trail mix, in oatmeal, or added to a charcuterie board for a touch of sweetness.

    Our review: These are my everyday chocolate treats! They’re the perfect blend of sweet and indulgent, and they totally satisfy my chocolate cravings. The natural sweetness of the raisins mixed with rich cocoa is so delicious. Plus, the convenient packaging makes it easy for me to take them with me wherever I go. —Leilani McQuay, Glamour commerce producer

    Universal Yums International Snack Box

    This gift box makes for the perfect present for the adventurous snack lover—especially if that person is you. Inside you’ll find treats from all over the world, including almond baklava, tikka-masala-flavored chips, banana toffee bars, mapl-bacon-flavored lentil snacks, and more.

    Our review: My husband and I are big fans of Universal Yums, a subscription service box that sends snack foods from a different country each month. It’s become a fun bonding experience to test and compare all the different treats. If you want to try before you buy, the brand makes a variety pack, available on Amazon, that’s full of its top-rated foreign chips, candy, chocolates, and more. It also makes an awesome gift. —Anna Moeslein, Glamour deputy editor

    Tate’s Bake Shop Chocolate Chip Cookies (16-Pack)

    Tate’s cookies are known for how thin and crunchy they are—which you might not think you’d like in a cookie, but trust us. Choose from one of its many types (double chocolate, ginger, oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip and walnut, etc.) or opt for a variety to try them all. We’re partial to the classics.

    Our review: I love chocolate chip cookies—all sorts. But though I’ve tried many gourmet bakery versions, I come back to Tate’s time after time. It’s their texture. Each cookie is perfectly light and crunchy, but the chocolate chips manage to be a little melty too. It’s hard for me to stop eating them once I start, so it’s fortunate that on Amazon, you can buy them in little packs of two. —Malia Griggs, Glamour commerce editor

    Chomps Grass-Fed and Finished Jalapeño Beef Jerky Snack Sticks 10-Pack

    When we asked the Glamour staff to share their favorite snacks on Amazon, our commerce producer immediately sent us a photo of herself at her desk with this beef jerky stick in hand. If that’s not true love, we don’t know what is. Meat lovers can choose from some savory flavors: classic beef, spicy beef, and lightly peppered turkey. Slide one into your backpack or bag for when that midday hunger hits.

    Our review: I absolutely love Chomps, especially the Jalapeño Beef! It adds a spicy kick that I really enjoy. Believe it or not, I eat two a day. Made from grass-fed beef, they’re a great source of protein and super convenient for staying fueled on the go! —L.M.

    Whisps Baked Cheese Bites in Parmesan & Cheddar (12-Pack)

    Cheeseheads, whip open a bag of Whisps. They come in Parmesan, Asiago and pepperjack, and cheddar flavors, and each round cracker has just the right amount of crunch. Did we mention they’re gluten-free and protein-heavy?

    Our review: Like many millennials, I went through a keto phase, during which I discovered Whisps cheese crisps (they’re super high in protein and low-carb, which fits the keto bill). I haven’t been keto in years, but they’re so good that I’ve kept eating them anyway, and it turns out they fit perfectly into my normal lifestyle as is. They’re cheese, so that’s hard to argue with, but they’re also gluten-free and have 9 grams of protein per serving, which is essential for someone like me who struggles to eats enough protein and gets puffy when I have gluten. Most importantly, however, is that Whisps are delicious! They’re salty and crunchy in all the right ways, so they’re fun and satisfying to eat at any time. They’re kind of the perfect snack, IMO. How could crunchy cheese not be? —D.S.

    Gimme Organic Roasted Seaweed Sheets (12-Pack With 6 Flavors)

    Crispy, crunchy sheets of dried seaweed make for a slept-on snack that’s low in calories and high in vitamins. These snack packs are vegan, gluten-free, keto-friendly, and all that good jazz.

    Our review: My mom always packed seaweed snacks in my lunches, so I’ve been eating them for decades. IMO, this makes me a bit of a seaweed snack connoisseur, so I have high expectations when it comes to my beloved salty snack. Fortunately, Gimme seaweed snacks have met all of them and then some. They taste just like the ones I grew up eating, come in convenient packaging, and of course, are available for bulk purchase on Amazon. I love the plain sea salt flavor, but they come in six varieties, so whether you’re basic like me or want to be adventurous with teriyaki, olive oil, avocado oil, wasabi, or toasted sesame, there’s something for everyone. Also of note? Seaweed is high in iodine, potassium, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorous, and sodium, as well as vitamins K, A, C, and E, vitamin B12, and fiber! Yummy, crunchy, salty, and healthy? It’s a win-win-win-win. —D.S.

    Smartfood White Cheddar Popcorn

    What’s a party without popcorn? And popcorn with that salty, creamy, white cheddary taste? Sign us up.

    Our review: Every time my mom and I hang out, one of us brings a party-size Smartfood bag (though you can buy them in snack-size bags too). It’s unspoken that we will eat the entire thing in one sitting. Some may say it’s a problem, but those people can STFU. I am a fiend for that white-cheddar taste and have been since grade school. The only annoying thing? Dusty fingers. —M.G.

    Simple Mills Almond Flour Baking Mix, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Mix

    Looking for an alternative to Tate’s? Try Simple Mills’ chocolate chip cookie mix, which is easy to make and leaves you with a tray of chewy desserts made of lightweight almond flour and zero artificial ingredients.

    Our review: Although I found these initially after going gluten-free and needing something for the occasional post-dinner dessert craving, I love them so much that I’d eat them even if I didn’t have dietary restrictions (and my husband adores them too, which is sort of annoying since they’re pretty pricey and he can have his pick of any cheaper snack, but he steals the box). They have just a pinch of salt, the chocolate melts in your mouth, and they’re especially good with a soothing caramel tea if you want a low-cal sugar fix. —Brie Schwartz, Glamour commerce director

    Kind Minis (20-Pack)

    Our commerce editor reaches for these tiny snack bars when she wants a quick snack that she can keep in her bag. This variety pack on Amazon nets you 20 bars in two dessert-like flavors.

    Our review: I have a bad habit of not eating breakfast, or realizing I’m starving as I head out the door. These mini breakfast bars are just the right size for rescuing the inevitable sugar crash—but not so big that I leave half on the counter. I like their dark-chocolate-heavy flavors and chunks of almonds. —M.G.

    Annie’s White Cheddar Shells Macaroni and Cheese with Organic Pasta

    A 12-pack of mac ’n’ cheese for $12 on sale? That’s a ridiculously good deal, especially on this cult-favorite pasta, which is a nice base for all sorts of toppings—or delicious all on its own.

    Our review: Look, I said I have an obsession with white cheddar. Annie’s mac ’n’ cheese—specificially these shells—and I have had a long-running love affair. They got me through college and late nights, and now serve as a base for many a light meal when I’m too tired to hit the grocery store. In eight minutes I have a warm, easy snack/meal that’s comforting and delicious. It’s way cheaper to buy these boxes in bulk on Amazon too—take it from a expert. —M.G.

  • 13/18

    Justin’s Honey Almond Butter Squeeze Packs (10-Pack)

    Peanut butter is excellent to reach for when your hunger hits, but it’s not exactly convenient to lug around in jar form. These squeeze packs from Justin’s use organic ingredients and come in single-serve packets in rich flavors like chocolate hazelnut butter, cinnamon, and maple and vanilla. The brand makes scrumptious peanut butter chocolate cups too.

    Our review: I buy multiples of these whenever I’m going on a long bus trip or plane ride and want a fast, reliable snack. The honey almond butter flavor is my fave, and I like that it comes in this little pack that I can just squeeze right into my mouth. —M.G.

  • 14/18

    Quest Nutrition Chocolate Brownie Protein Bars (12-Pack)

    Since they’re available in flavors like birthday cake, chocolate brownie, and chocolate chip cookie dough, you can almost fool yourself that these are desserts—and not protein bars. Almost. They make a solid breakfast in a pinch, says Glamour’s Schwartz.

    Our review: If you get hangry like me, these are the perfect snacks to travel with. They’re super satisfying, and if you close your eyes, they almost taste like a chocolate brownie but with fewer calories and way more protein. They’re also gluten-free, if you care. Quest makes tons of other flavors too—I’m partial to the blueberry muffin and the cookie, whereas my husband likes the peanut butter. They’ve been staples in my household for years. —B.S.

  • 15/18

    SmartSweets Lollipops

    Another popular Smart Sweets treat is the brand’s lollipops, which arguably last longer than gummies, have less sugar, and come in splashy, summery blue raspberry and watermelon flavors.

    Our review: If you’re like me and enjoy a snack while you’re watching TV but have portion control problems, you’ll like these tasty low-cal pops that are only 1 gram of sugar and last for at least half an episode of The Bear. The blue raspberry flavor has just the right amount of sourness, but I like the watermelon too for a summery treat. —B.S.

    Wonderful Pistachios No Shells Variety Pack (9-Pack)

    In need of a salty, tangy snack that fits in a fanny pack? We like these pistachios, which you can buy in handful-size pouches and that come pre-shelled (so you don’t have to work too hard or figure out where to toss the shells).

    Our review: I only entered my nut era (LOL) in the past couple of years, and part of what pushed me onto that train was access to these pistachio pouches. I like that they come in flavors like sea salt and vinegar, honey roasted, jalapeño lime, and BBQ, and that—importantly—you can buy them without shells. I’m too lazy for that. —M.G.

  • 17/18

    Oreo Gluten-Free Golden Sandwich Cookies

    You can order classic sandwich Oreos on Amazon, of course—or go wild and try these golden gluten-free ones. Dip them in a glass or milk or a nondairy milk for a wholesome after-school-esque snack.

    Our review: I have celiac sprue, which shuts out so many baked goods. Many of my cohort got excited when Oreo came out with a gluten-free version of its chocolate cookie—but not me. I’ve always disliked the chocolate part. So I was excited when they came out with golden gluten-free Oreos instead. But these are hard to find in stores! Sometimes the groceries near me have the gluten-free chocolate one, but almost never the golden, so I order them from Amazon. —Talley Sue Hohlfeld, Glamour copy director

    Betty Buzz Premium Sparkling Soda Citrus Variety Pack

    Of course, you need a delicious beverage to wash all of these great snacks down with. And what better than a sparkling soda you can drink on its own or mix with your favorite spirit? This variety pack, from Blake Lively’s brand Betty Buzz, includes sparkling Meyer lemon, lemon lime, and grapefruit, but you can also snag her ready-to-drink line called Betty Booze at a local retailer if you’re not in the mood for mixing.

    Our review: I love that these sparkling drinks are made with real juice and natural ingredients like agave and sea salt. When drinking them on their own, I gravitate towards the grapefruit for its tartness, but when mixing, it’s hard to beat the versatility of the lemon lime. Vodka is the obvious addition, but a touch of tequila does the trick for a light margarita-like drink. —Brigitt Earley, Glamour contributor
