Yes, we keep some healthier snack options on hand due to food allergies: make our own granola bars & popsicles, buy bulk nuts & divide them into mini mason jars, ditto dried fruit, and pepitas. Sometimes my better half makes us jerky but not frequently.

Hard-boiled eggs are always in the fridge. Prep our own small grab & go protein boxes with meats, cheese & nuts. Most nights, I will pre-slice some veggies for the next day or two. Always have fruit in the fridge as well.

When we bake cookies, we freeze most of them in small, individual servings.

Our only treat that might linger is Rice Krispie treats. My better half makes the most amazing brown butter salted caramel Rice Krispie treats as well as drool-worthy peanut butter & chocolate Rice Krispie treats. Those are usually special occasion treats, though.

Not for company as we never have any, but I keep snacks.  Chips, ice cream, chocolate, nuts.  I have little single-serve bags of nuts w/dried fruit.  Cheese, salami, crackes, and fresh fruit are sometimes what I have for dinner.

We are bad.  We have potatoe chips, cookies and graham crackers.  But we do also have bananas, melon, cherries, grapes, various cheeses and crackers.

Those who mentioned Cheez-its.  I love them and now I will have to get some also.

We're bad too. We have peanut butter filled pretzels, animal crackers, Triscuit, biscotti from Costco, dried mango and apricots. sometimes cashews. Candy and ice cream are in the freezer so I forget about it.

If by snacks you mean packaged, salty items, then no, we don't have them in the pantry as regular items we eat. We do buy some chips when football season starts and we have people over, but even then I prefer to make fresh appetizers.

Our snacking tends to be fruit, veggies, nuts and the occasional fresh baked sweet item I have made.

I do love salty snacks and so does dh. But I don't miss not having them on a regular basis.

We have some things available as snacks but they aren't typical snack food, and we don't snack a lot.  We are careful about the quantity and frequency and only have a snack when it fits in our plan for the day, rather than randomly and unchecked, so the macros are accounted for and the calories are included in our daily limit.  Some or our options are:

Celery 

Mini Peppers

Cucumber Slices

Salami 

Cheese

Olives

Dill Pickles

Assorted nuts and seeds

Hard Cooked Eggs

Pork Rinds

Unsweetened Coconut Chips

Keto Coconut Clusters - plain and chocolate (only the Aldi brand)

Bake Believe and/or Lily's Chocolate.- a piece from a large bar or some chocolate chips

KF Cookies, Brownies, Cupcakes etc.(if/when I bake)

[SurferWife]

Yes.  I'd be a raving lunatic if I didn't have a few snacks around.

Keep it simple....

Fruits - watermelon a favorite

Veggies

Ocassionally unsalted nuts

Just don't consider high salt, oil, sugar, fat processed items as food.

Yes, but I only buy things I'm not that crazy about so that when I do need a snack, I don't overdo it.  lol  If I bought anything chocolate?  Down the hatch.  So I buy mini pretzels and Wheat Thins.  I count calories to maintain my weight so literally count eatch pretzel or Wheat Thin to equal a half/full serving.  For the most part, I am able to stay out of my husband's snacks, which I would eat in a heartbeat if I could and maintain my weight.

Yes, I am a salty snack lover but I only keep Smarfood White Cheddar Popcorn on hand to eat with a sandwich or have as a snack. I also have Saltines for Chili and whole wheat Toasted crackers to eat with chicken salad....I don't snack on them though. Other things I snack on are nuts or string cheese.
