Need some suggestions here...

Freshman year of college, I kept snacks in the back of my car. They were not healthy, and I eventually stopped doing that because I was gaining too much weight

Now, my schedule is necessitating that I do that again. But I don't want to keep junk in the back there (well, maybe some junk, but not 100% junk). Anyone have suggestions? It needs to keep in the back of the car (nothing that needs refrigeration), needs to be nut-free (shared equipment is not an issue), and of course, should be tasty. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Granola/cereal bars. I eat the Quaker oatmeal bars when I need a boost.

You did say any suggestions would be appreciated!

Unfortunately there is no stove in my car, and correct me if I'm wrong, but those are better cooked.

I think those Kellogg's Nutri-grain Cereal Bars are nut free and they don't taste too bad!

Do they have microwaves that are student accessible? Or are you pretty much stuck with room/car temperature stuff?

@MinnieM123 Those houses totally encased in ice were amazing.

At my school, we have microwaves on both campuses. No clue about the school where I take Spanish.

Do you like any of those microwaveable soup, stews by Healthy choice or the Hormel Compleats dinners?

I bring soup for lunch a lot. I'm thinking more along the grab and go lines

I always thought that Hostess Twinkies were a healthy snack. And good too!

These are currently my favorite snacks (apparently some new kinds I never heard of)

Do they have a variety with no almonds?

And they last forever.

You just suggested the one brand of cracker that I hate, but Ritz and dip might be a good option.

Triscuits are gross.
Triscuit Thin Crisps are delish!
Breton Minis are even better!

On the hips.

I don't believe so.

Every time I hear Twinkies I think of Wall-E and how he had one saved in his treasures. I personally don't care for them. I'm more of a Nutty Bar girl.

That sounds delish! I've never been to a Red Robin, but I see they are up around these parts!

Not bad prices for a table service restaurant either. Burgers between $6.99 (special) to about $9. Real yummy too.
Their Freckled Lemonade and their adult Freckled Lemonade are both very good.
