'' I bet you can’t eat just one.''
This slogan used by Lay’s chips in the past pretty much sums up the mindset manufacturers have when developing tasty and addicting snacks. No wonder most people have cravings for these foods on a regular basis. Added salt, sugar, fat and flavor-boosting additives like MSG make these snacks impossible to resist. I must admit – if there’s a bag of chip in front of me, my hand will reach out for them, even if my mind thinks these chips are nasty and should never be eaten by anyone on Earth.
That’s what you have to fight against when trying to find a fat burning snack. It needs to be at the same time relatively low in calories – because going overboard when snacking is very easy to do – convenient and addictive.
Beware: Most Snacks Are Terrible
Remember – those 100 calorie snack packs still contain 100% of ingredients that do nothing more than giving your body a hard time and promoting fat storage. So obviously, a 100 calorie Oreo snack pack is a very bad snack choice. The problem is – even your “all-natural” granola bar may still be a source of sugar, refined grains, vegetable oil and other ingredients that should all be part of your occasional 10% treat foods category. So while you think the snacks you eat every day help you keep your appetite in control and keep your metabolism going, they may be in fact slowing down your fat loss and making your body sick.
