The Best Natural Snacks

Slide 1 of 18

By Jocelyn Voo

Second only to food that's plucked from the ground, these snacks are made with natural ingredients, with no preservatives, artificial ingredients, or additives. Whether you're craving sweet or salty, these natural snacks will hit the spot.

Kashi Autumn Wheat

Organic whole-grain wheat, organic evaporated cane juice, natural flavor. Those are the only three ingredients in Kashi's Autumn Wheat cereal. Simple formula, but think shredded wheat on steroids. It's USDA certified organic, low fat, cholesterol and sodium free, and provides a quarter of your daily fiber needs per cup. Plus, the bite-size biscuits actually taste really, really good -- liked by both adults and 2-year-olds (seriously). And for a breakfast cereal, there's no more rigorous taste test than that.
