Best "diet-y" snacks?

Is that a threat or a promise?

Cut your bagel into thirds or quarters. I eat mine in rather thin slices.

I love snacking on blueberries from a bowl when they are in season
popcorn cause the kids can fix it themselves with no mess
apple sliced just plain but I cannot bite into a whole apple anymore
real (not baby) carrots are delicious alone (why would anybody need to put salt on carrots?) or with a salad dressing or dip
lots of nuts and they are healthy
celery plain or with dip or stuffed with cream cheese, peanut butter or pimento cheese

I have a 13 year old daughter who is addicted to potato chips. She could easily eat a whole bag if we let her. We like to have them on hand for sandwich lunches. I'm making sure I have fresh veggies and fruit easily available for her when she comes home from school. the whole family loves my homemade pimento cheese and I have some going almost all the time. I make a plate of pimento cheese stufed celery and carrot sticks, wrap it in saran wrap and she can easily grab that before she gets on her laptop.

Banana peppers and pickled okra (I'm slowly recalling things from my "diet-y" days)...

Oyster crackers (except that I could easily eat the whole bag)...
