Thank you WomenhealthMag (Seriously) for including foods that would not be considered "HEALTHY" i think this quiz was quite helpful because it included foods that are processed, refined, and ...just fattening, however because of this it allows a Realist to have a healthy life style change (diet wise) without depriving themselves of all the "delicious yet fating foods...Thanxs God Bless

Very informative quiz! I was glad to see that some of my favorite snacks only had 100 calories for the bigger serving size.

Thanks for the calorie counting quiz, I thought I was pretty good at guessing calorie intake, but this quiz gave me a real wake up call!

don't quite see how donuts or French fries qualify as "healthy" snacks?? those were easy to answer correctly. but I was surprised that I didn't score 100%!

DUH people! This is intended to raise awareness about the calorie content of the stuff we eat, or are tempted to eat, every day. I believe the point is that if the snack is a 100 calorie portion, it's infinitely healthier than the whole burger/bagel/bag of M&Ms.

That's a very good point Mel Carson!! I hadn't even realized that.

Not sure why this quiz asks, "Which HEALTHY snack adds up to 100 calories" then goes on to feature donuts, burgers, fries and pizza.

I got a good score, mostly by instinct, since too many of these were fast food or processed snacks, which I don't eat. ;-)

It was a tricky quiz but it helps me to know what I can snack on! :)

Great quiz. Portion control is the key!

i think some of you are missing the point. While, a few of these snacks are not "healthy" per say, i think the main aim of WH is to get you to look at portion control. No one is going to live her life never eating a french fry or slice of pizza again. That is just simply unrealistic. What this quiz should do is help you realize portion sizes and calorie counting and make you understand that the reason a whopper has so many calories has much to do with how it's prepared. I think most women are smart enough to know peanut M&Ms are not healthy, but when a chocolate craving ensues, knowing you can have 10 and won't kill everything, is great.

Love this quiz, gives a wonderful insight about what a 100 calorie snack looks like !

Great quiz! It was really helpful, although I don't eat a lot of the snacks that were in the quiz.

wow, i am so surprised to see how much i did not know about portions! i always thought i had a good sense from reading food labels, but i think i need more practice!

By hillarybee

Great quiz -- I liked that the quiz included both healthy and not so healthy foods. Sometimes, just a bite, or in this case - 100 kcals - can satisfy a craving and not undo an otherwise balanced & nutritious day. Everything in moderation!

Wow, McDonald's fries. It's hard to believe there can be so many calories in such a small amount of some of these foods!

This is a very helpful quiz. You really do need to know what you can snack on without going overboard.

I thought this was 100 calories "healthy" snacks. What exactly in a Krispy Kreme doughnut or a BK Whopper is healthy?

Mar 17 2010 - 10:23am

By Desirea Green

After reading some of these posts, I will simply say that it is not so much the idea of "healthy snack or not" I feel it is being able to recognize what 1oo cal looks like in a variety of foods. Some of us still like to sneak bites but those bites have calories.

18 out of 24. Much better then I thought it would be :-)

uhm 9 out of 24 is being a smart snacker? LOL that's not even half

By awoods6

So I was really surprised that 1/4 of a whopper is 100 calories! Like really? I would think a crumb of a whopper would be a 100 cal. But I agree with IWELLPRO and ECINAJANK... give me fruits and veggies any day!

Feb 21 2010 - 2:33pm

By Walters2007

Wow! This article was great! I really had NO idea what 100 calories looked like!

Agree with ecinajank...just give me the fruits :)

Not bad! If only I can keep down to 100 calorie snack once in a while....instead of 2-100 calorie snacks!! T.

By ecinajank

I was pretty happy about getting 21 out of 24 on this quiz....have to say, though, that some of these snacks are nowhere near healthy. Why ruin a perfect strawberry with a Cool Whip Free...Have you ever looked at the ingredients of it?? High fructose corn syrup and trans fats...yum...NOT!

By joy1176

wow i did better than i thought scoring 20 out of 24! i loved how WH showed what a bad choice the donut would be over the chocolate kisses. i would much rather have the 5-6 kisses over the tiny piece of donut. THANKS!!!

Healthy snacking?!. Seriously, help or move out of the way, Women's Health.

Jan 28 2010 - 9:38am

By irishjive

Smart snacking .. I was expecting something totally different. Pizza, Whoppers, donuts, chips, pocket pizzas? When should any of these things be mentioned in the same sentance as "health". We all know what "healthy snacking" really is ..

Jan 27 2010 - 2:52pm

By DRenae727

"Smart Snacker"... I'll take that. The items I missed (pretzels, peanut m&ms, kisses, etc.) are things that as a diabetic I don't eat anyways.

I love all kinds of chocolate!(total weakness!) Dark chocolate is the best health-wise,...very small ammount a day. Still yummy.

Jan 22 2010 - 2:30pm

By toourhealthin2010

This was interesting. I didn't take it seriously until I'd missed three in a row. Added note: some "individual" bags of chips are considered two servings. A good reminder to begin by reading the total servings on labels information, then the remaining info.

18 pretzels 100 calories! that's why you should never eat out of the bag. Always count out one portion and close the bag.

this quiz was very interesting to watch what to eat and what not

19 out of 24, not bad. 3 of the ones I got wrong were meat items, I don't eat meat, haven't for 5+ years. I don't calorie count anymore, but did for a long time.

WOW! YOU'RE A MASTER SNACKER 18 out of 24 thats interesting...

Ha, even I don't "snack", I still got high score! This is an interesting way to learn the subject! Hopefully, there are more of this type of articles sent to my inbox, because I might not have that much time to search through the whole site.

Always remember "You are what you eat" so go look in the mirror and see what needs help. Now is the time to work on it.

I stopped counting calories a long time ago. I simply used the smallest plate I can find and only eat that amount I can put on the plate.

I am a snack queen. I have learned to eat healthier snacks and keep them at 100 calories and sometimes up to 150 calories. The 100 calorie snacks that hostess, keebler, etc. that are out now are great, but then again it's sugar intake. My fave are carrots or cucumbers and hummus or peanut butter on a rice cake. Ellie

I have gotten into the habit of measuring food but instead of putting it all on 1 plate, I put it on individual saucers or bowls, its a mind trick that makes you think your getting a pile of food and in reality you are getting the right amounts.

Oct 4 2009 - 1:29pm

By Michelle666

Wow!! Master Snacker!! If the food didn't taste sooo good I wouldn't have a problem sticking to the 100 calories!!
