" Most 100 calorie snack packs have the absolute opposite effect on me of what they&amp;#039;re supposed to help with (portion control). After I eat the tiny cookies or crackers, my sweet tooth has been activated and it&amp;#039;s all down hill from there. The small portions don&amp;#039;t satisfy me and I then find myself craving larger sweets like cookies and cupcakes that have WAY higher calorie counts. That&amp;#039;s why I tend to steer clear of them.  But, I&amp;#039;m reconsidering my no-pack stance because of a product I&amp;#039;ve recently discovered and am mildly obsessed with: Barney Butter 90 Calorie Packs. Barney Butter is a type of almond butter. I tend to prefer the taste of almond butter to peanut butter (I like almonds more than peanuts, so go figure), but just one tablespoon of most almond (and peanut) butters can run at least 100 calories or more. So, when I&amp;#039;m scooping out of a jar, it&amp;#039;s very easy to add two or three servings without even realizing it. These packs contain the perfect amount of almond butter to satisfy while keeping my calories in check. They&amp;#039;re also great to throw in your purse for an on-the-go snack. In fact, I like them so much that I now keep them in my desk drawer at work as well as in my pantry at home. I squeeze it on toast in the morning, add it to my oatmeal for a delicious kick or spread it on sliced apples for a snack.     Bonus: they&amp;#039;re gluten free! Which means that anyone who has Celiac disease or a peanut allergy can also indulge in these delicious little packs.  Just one container of 24 individual packets is $9.99. To order online, or search for retail locations that carry them, go here.  \u2013 Abby Cuffey, Assistant Health Editor "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
