Snack Attack

A lot of people rely on late afternoon snacks since friend gatherings occur around that period of time. Opening a bag of chips or crackers seems much easier than spending hours in the kitchen preparing healthy bites.

It is surprising to realize that supermarket aisles provide a big space for snack boxes and bags from different brands to the point where we can even find oyster and cheese flavored chips. Industrials have all available means to market those products, whether it is free gifts with the purchase of 2 items or online marketing campaigns. All population categories are targeted; women, children, adolescents and men.

For example low fat or organic chips are intended for women to reassure them on the possibility of nibbling without gaining weight.

Clementine

Clementine is the fruit of the month because of its high content of essential vitamins such as vitamin C and folate.

Choose the organic variety or eat them seasonally because some industrials tend to add waxes to the skin to increase its shelf life and to prevent mold formation given the fact that clementines travel miles away to reach supermarkets.

Always wash your fruits and vegetables before consumption to lower the chances of ingesting potential harmful substances.
