Sodas are made of sugar water and chemical flavorings. I like to call
\nthem “liquid candy.” Many chips are actually ground-up processing
\nremnants (skins, trim, rejected bits) fried in cheap greases. Cheese
\npuffs are also ground-up artificial cheese leftovers, air-blown. Junk
\ncakes are mostly chemicals and sugar. No “junk” “snack” food carries
\nuseful nutrition. They are purely for taste. <\/p>\n
Why not have a snack that tastes
\ngood, and helps your body and mind?
\nGo ahead and snack: Eat something real and really good. Fruit (sweet,
\nfibrous, alive), vegetables (crunchy, almost no calories or fat), or
\nwhole-wheat pretzels (only flour, water and a little salt).<\/p>\n
Have YOU any healthy snack ideas, that aren’t junk or harmful to your body? PLEASE COMMENT and share!<\/p>\n
