This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Ritz.
I’ve mentioned before that I could seriously make a meal out of cheese and crackers (and a little fruit thrown in for good measure) and I often do that for lunch. I think a lot of women could get by on less food if we didn’t have our hubbies to worry about. Cheese and crackers definitely won’t cut it for my man, but when left to my own wishes, I will choose a lunch of cheese and crackers many times.
Last year, I got a chance to try out Ritz Crackerfuls and really enjoyed them and this year, they have even more flavors, like Cheddar Cheese and Bacon. YUM, could that combo be any better? I received a few sample packs in the mail and have been munching away. 
These are great for grabbing on the go. Each one is individually wrapped in cellophane to keep it fresh and sometimes when I’m on the way to the gym, I just need something to tide me over until I can get a real meal. These will do the trick and keep those hunger pangs at bay!
My days aren’t always predictable and can vary from day to day, from gym time to running errands and grocery shopping, to antiques browsing and yardsaling, so I spend a good bit of time on the run.
Each is made with 6 grams of whole grains and real cheese, so you can feel good about what you are eating and know that it is substantial enough to keep you going until you have time for your next meal.
I try not to snack a whole lot in between meals, but there are times I don’t have time to really sit down and eat, so that’s when one of these generously sized Crackerfuls will come in handy. Grab and go, easy and fast in the car and on the run. That’s where I am many days and I imagine you are too.
So, tell me what you do to tide you over between meals? What sort of things do you grab on the go to satisfy your hunger when you really don’t have time for a substantial lunch?
Up for grabs will be a $100 Visa gift card to one lucky winner! How fun is that? All you have to do is leave a comment to be eligible.

My youngest daughter loves these in her lunch! Haven’t tried the new bacon/cheddar flavor!
I really just go for something chocolate.
I love to munch on popcorn. I pop it and put it in a bag for later or even buy the organic already popped popcorn. Yum!
Peanut butter crackers.
I love to snack on fruit– my kids however love “fresh baked chocolate chip cookies”
I grab a spoonful of peanut butter!
I try to grab some fruit if I need a snack (apple, mango), but must admit sometimes it’s my kids’ goldfish I grab a handful of!
Anything with peanut butter – PB & jelly sandwich, PB on banana, PB & crackers. My favorite food!
I love crackers with peanut butter. This is usually my after dinner snack. Yummy!
I love fruit! An apple or peach or nectarine. They’re sweet and fill me up…at least for a little bit 🙂
I like cheese and crackers, too. I keep the individually wrapped cheese sticks in the fridge, and I also like the Laughing Cow soft cheese wedges. If I have green grapes on hand, I like a bunch with my cheese and crackers. I like Ritz crackers, but I usually just eat the plain ones or the whole wheat. I like the Ritz Cracker Pretzel crackers too.
I seem to always turn to graham crackers with peanut butter! It’s an old favorite that is still a wonderful treat!
i do cheese/crackers or room-temp grapes (don’t like ’em real cold) or a ‘nola bar…
Since I recently started a new weight loss journey when I get hungry between meals I start with a glass of water then if I find myself still hungry I turn to fresh, raw veggies.
I usually keep some Wheat Thins or some strawberry yogurt on hand.
I try to eat all day in little bits…but when I get behind, I have been making an effort to eat nuts or fruit. However, I will be honest and tell you if I get that hungry…I’ll eat anything in sight! 🙂
Fruit & crackers are my “go to” snack because they are easy at the office. I love cheese so these would be perfect!
I try to stick with fruit and cheese and stay away from the junk food, but it doens’t always work out that way:)
In the summer, I have to have a Zip-Loc bag of frozen grapes. Can’t. Stop. Eating. Them. Hummus and cucumbers is another hot-weather snack that I love.
I like the cheddar ones, but not the other ones. I also love to snack on cashews, just need to be careful not to eat too many
