Hey reader!
Snacks can be one of the best and one of the worst parts of a road trip!
On one hand, they usually taste pretty great.
Plus, they give you something to do (at least for a while).
On the other hand, they're not typically the healthiest and can leave you with a yucky feeling. 🥴
This is not to say that you can't enjoy a special treat or two during your drive. 😄
But the majority of your snacks should be supportive of your health goals-- not detrimental!
Plan Ahead to Save Calories (and Money!)
While the convenience store does offer a few healthy snack options, like nuts or protein shakes, the majority of them are loaded with fat, carbs, sugar, and more.
Not to mention that they're more costly (single servings generally cost more.)
Planning ahead and packing your own snacks is a great way to stay healthy and save money! 👍
Set yourself up for success by trading the processed foods for these yummy, healthier options!
