Fall is
here! Which means Halloween is right around the corner. Over at Bon’App, we
know that Halloween is the ultimate test for everyone’s sweet tooth and we are
here to help! We all deserve to indulge every once in a while but the trick
lies in observing and obeying the suggested serving size. Whether you are
staying in and giving out candy to the neighborhood kids or snatching up a few
pieces of your own, here are some your best bets.
Give Kids This Instead of That!
And the winner is...3 Musketeers Minis (Serving Size: 1)
Bon’App
shows us that a 3 Musketeers Mini has only 25 calories and less than 1 gram of
fat per piece! This dreamy chocolate snack trumps its competitors, and with a
greater serving size you don’t have to feel like you’re missing out. But be
weary of their cute size! The calories add up quicker than you think!
Kit Kat
Minis (Serving Size: 1)
Watch
out for Kit Kat Minis. Although they seem too small to do much damage, one
piece has almost twice as many calories and fat as a 3 Musketeer Mini, at 42
kcal and 2 grams respectively.
This:
Charms
Blow Pops (Serving Size: 1)
With 60
calories and 13 grams of sugar, these delicious lollipops are a great
alternative to hard candy. Since most try to avoid biting lollipops until the
bitter end, it is much easier to be content with a single lollipop than only
one piece of candy. Charms Blow Pops are long-lasting and fun to eat!
Instead
of…
That:
Haribo
Gold-Bear Gummi Bears (Serving Size: 17)
Although
these gummi bears have no fat and a higher serving size than most candy, be
weary of these little guys—each serving has 21 grams of sugar! Seventeen may
seem like a generous serving size, but when taking hand-full after hand-full
the calories and sugars add up!
And don't forget, although candy is not the most nutritious choice, don't be afraid to allow yourself a few treats here and there! Just remember, moderation is key!
