Salty snacks that satisfy

Posted on Jun 13th 2007 1:22PM by Martha Edwards

I've come to realize that there are two types of people in the world: the sweet and the salty. No, I'm not talking about their disposition, I'm talking about their cravings. Some people have a major sweet tooth and when they're craving something, they reach for the chocolate or the ju jubes. Others crave salty things and will go for the chips. That's not to say that sweet people can't crave salty and vice versa, but they usually have one or the other as their default craving.

My point? I'm a sweet, so I've done a few posts on low-cal sweets that can satisfy this palate of mine. But I though I'd give the salties something to munch on and offer these suggestions, which include:

  • Edamame, which is steamed soy beans lightly sea salted
  • Roasted pumpkin seeds with a dash of salt
  • Reduced-Fat Triscuits
  • Light microwave popcorn (or air-popped -- even better!)

Salties, what's your favourite indulgence?
